University of St. Francis Honored for Distinctive Educational Excellence

The University of St. Francis has been named a “College of Distinction” by CollegesofDistinction.com, a Web site dedicated to honoring schools nationwide for their excellence in student-focused higher education.

Colleges and universities are nominated for participation through high school counselors’ recommendations, and quantitative research.

Once nominated, the colleges are assessed using four distinctions: student engagement, quality of teaching, vibrancy of the college community and success of graduates.

The schools must meet minimum standards in each category, and USF excelled in all areas, according to a USF press release.
