Washington Monthly's rankings evaluate colleges and universities on their ability to deliver value to students through affordability, student outcomes, and community engagement. Saint Francis University is proud to be included among institutions making a measurable difference for students and families in the region.

Malachi Van Tassell, T.O.R., Ph.D. "Being recognized in the Washington Monthly guide is an affirmation of our mission to deliver a high-impact, affordable education rooted in Franciscan values."

The University continues to expand access through innovative initiatives such as new professional studies programs, online skill-builder certificates, and scholarships designed to support both traditional undergraduates and working adults. These efforts ensure that Saint Francis students receive not only a strong academic foundation but also career-ready experiences that prepare them for success.

As Saint Francis University looks to the future, its focus remains clear: empowering students to achieve their goals, lead with character, and serve the world with compassion.
