Franciscan School of Theology

What are the popular events and traditions at Franciscan School of Theology?

FST's Franciscan identity provides a context for religious observances and community programming, including activities associated with St. Francis of Assisi. The content and scheduling of any celebration, lecture, or gathering can vary by academic year.

Prospective students interested in participation should consult the current FST events calendar rather than assuming that an event documented at its former Oceanside location continues unchanged in San Diego. A public lecture or worship service may also have different attendance rules from an activity reserved for enrolled students.

What are the student housing and dining options at Franciscan School of Theology?

Applicants should not assume that enrollment at FST includes a residence-hall place or a University of San Diego meal plan. Housing and dining eligibility must be checked under FST's current arrangements, not inferred from facilities visible on the host campus.

For a student relocating to San Diego, the practical next step is to establish whether FST offers any housing referrals or access to university housing, then budget separately for rent, food, and commuting. Availability is different from a guaranteed placement. Students should also verify whether campus dining accepts their payment method or offers any plan for FST students before including one in an annual budget.
