On April 28, St. Francis College celebrated the 139th anniversary of the granting of its charter with a convocation in the fifth-floor auditorium, marking the first time Charter Day was held at the College’s new Downtown Brooklyn campus.

Under the terms of the agreement, graduates of Bronx Community College with an associate degree in science in the biology option may transfer to St. Francis College and, after two years, graduate from SFC with a Bachelor of Science in biology. Those who qualify will be eligible for renewable scholarships (of $14,000 annually), merit-based aid and need-based aid from SFC.

Financial operations positions are among the 10 largest occupations in the State of New York. St. Francis College is offering a B.S. in Finance so that students can take advantage of the many opportunities for skilled graduates.

The recent move by St. Francis College to a new campus featuring a MakerSpace equipped with 3D printers and other cutting-edge technology makes this the perfect time to introduce a B.S. in Entrepreneurship and Organizational Innovation.

This semester, St. Francis College launched its first master’s degree program in education, the M.S.Ed. in special education, for which there is considerable demand throughout New York City and State.

The Fellows Program will bring to SFC during the 2022-2023 academic year five professionals with expertise in human rights, global anti-Muslim racism and Islamophobia, ethical and spiritual dimensions of human rights, politically and socially engaged art, and digital media and broadcasting.
