Students were met with some good news as they returned to St. Francis College, Brooklyn Heights, for their first full week of classes. U.S. News & World Report has once again ranked St. Francis as a Top Regional College in the North.

“These rankings have become an annual confirmation of the success of our educational mission at St. Francis,” said Provost Timothy Houlihan. “The consistent recognition tells us that students who choose to use their hard-earned money on us are receiving the education they want, need, and deserve to become our next generation of leaders.”

St. Francis was also selected as the fifth most Ethnically Diverse Regional College in the North by U.S. News.

“We’re proud that our students in the classroom reflect the world outside our windows,” said Associate Dean Allen Burdowski. “We’ve created an environment where anyone and everyone can come together to learn and be successful.”
