Admission Counselors

Should I email my USF college admissions counselor?

Yes! Please contact us if you have any questions about your application, the University of San Francisco, or college in general. We'd be happy to help answer them. It's our job to get you the information you need at every step of the way. It's also a great way for us to get to know you outside your application."

Sherie Gilmore-Cleveland

Associate Vice Provost, Enrollment Management
Born and raised in Oakland, California, I am a Bay Area girl through and through. I graduated from the University of San Francisco with my BS in 2001 and MS in 2005. I love the energy of USF. The people, the campus, and the passion for others captured my heart, and I've never let go. The conversations I've had (over a great meal in in the city), have brought me to tears through laughter while also inspiring me to serve others.

Arnoldo Valdivieso-Martinez

Admission Counselor
I'm originally from Mexico but have called the Bay Area my home for most of my life. When I'm not traveling to and from Disneyland, you can catch me exploring all the different coffee shops and restaurants the city has to offer, one run or bike ride at a time. Lastly, I'm proud to say that I'm on my way to becoming a Double Don (graduating with two degrees from USF)!

Erica Delgado

Director of Transfer Admission and Campus Engagement
I'm originally from a small agricultural town in California's Central Valley and have had the pleasure to live in large cities all over the state — but none as dear to my heart as San Francisco. The city is a special place with its amazing food, diverse cultures, and beautiful views. I love to travel and I feel fortunate to come back to this eclectic city after every adventure.

Hervey Malone II

Assistant Director of Admission and Regional Representative
I was born and raised in the Bay Area and have many fond memories of San Francisco from growing up — so much that I consider San Francisco a second home. I now call SoCal my permanent home, since that's where I'm based.

As a USF alum, I have a deep appreciation and love for San Francisco and the surrounding communities—it's truly a beautiful place to call home!

Rebecca Williams

Director of First Year Admission
I grew up in Mississippi and attended college here in the Bay Area. Once I arrived, I never left. My favorite thing about San Francisco is the overwhelmingly eclectic food scene. I also still love taking the ferry between San Francisco and other parts of the Bay Area—it's one of the best ways to see the Bay!

Stephanie Ortiz-Garcia

Associate Director of Undergraduate Admission
I'm originally from southeast Los Angeles, moved to San Francisco to attend USF (Class of 2016!), and became a Double Don by completing my master's degree at USF. USF is special because it offered me a place where I could learn more about social justice through the Jesuit lens and integrate it within my social, academic, and professional goals. My favorite restaurant in the city with the best burritos and tacos is El Farolito on 24th and Mission, which I recommend if you are ever in town.

I’m originally from the East Bay, but I love San Francisco and USF. Not only am I an admission counselor, but I’m also a graduate student here pursuing my MA in the School of Education.
