2009-2010 Academic Scholarship Program
In order to be awarded an academic scholarship at the University of Saint Francis, students must first be admitted to the University.  If you have not already applied for admission, please do so using our FREE online application for admission.

Scholarships are available to both first-time freshman and new transfer students to USF beginning with the 2009-2010 Academic Year.  Below is a listing of how academic scholarships are determined.

 First-time Freshman:

Scholarships are based on an institutional ranking for first-time freshmen.  Institutional Ranking is a calculation of GPA and test score with a maximum score of 100.

Use our Scholarship Calculator to determine your Ranking and Scholarship,

or calculate:

50 times GPA on a 4.0 Scale divided by 4 (GPA Cannot exceed 4.0 for this calculation)

50 times SAT (Verbal and Math) divided by 1600 OR 50 times ACT Composite divided by 36

Add the two numbers together to determine Institutional Ranking
