Leadership

President’s Welcome

Thank you for your interest in Saint Francis. As a Catholic institution, we are committed to helping students encounter the heart and mind of Jesus Christ as they grow intellectually, professionally and spiritually. I invite you to learn more about our Mission Statement and core values of ceaseless adoration, generous love and Franciscan joy.

We are blessed to serve students in Fort Wayne, Crown Point, Gas City, Indianapolis and Lafayette. Wherever students may be on their educational journey, we strive to meet them with compassion, encouragement and opportunity. Alongside providing an excellent education, our faculty and staff are dedicated to forming students for lives of virtue, service and joy.

I encourage you to visit our beautiful campus or one of our sites across northern Indiana. Come and meet our faculty, staff and students, and decide if the University of Saint Francis may become your home away from home. It would be our privilege to accompany you as you seek to make a positive difference in the world and discover greater in your education, faith and purpose.
