Academics

Very well organized and challenging.

Academic difficulty will differ depending on the Major desired to pursue. Sciences and medical fields will be more rigorous than a business major. However, professors want to see you succeed, and while you will have to study and do all homework assigned, the professors are willing to see you during their open office hours if you have any problems. At Saint Francis, the majority of work is done in class. Because of this, attendance is key. The teachers work hard to help students achieve their goals for later in life, but without the cooperation of the students, it can become hard. Attending classes and taking good notes will help to ensure better test scores and a higher GPA than those who do not attend. Most professors will make up to 10 percent of your final class grade from participation and homework. If there is bad participation and homework, it could be a difference between an A and a B or C.

The classes at Saint Francis University are not easy. Saint Francis University wants to provide students with a top notch education and in doing so cannot provide students with classes that will be easy. Classes that are easy to pass mean less work being done by the students.
