The university's Franciscan identity is reflected in observances associated with St. Francis, while homecoming and other scheduled campus gatherings bring students and alumni together. These events serve different purposes: one expresses the institution's heritage, and the other centers on community and athletics.
Event names, dates, and activities vary by year. Students who want to participate should consult the current university calendar rather than assume that a past celebration or program will recur in the same format.
The University of St. Francis offers university-operated, coeducational housing to undergraduates, but most students commute. In the reported housing figures, about 21% of students lived on campus, so residence life is one option rather than the experience of a majority of the student body.
University housing includes access to high-speed internet. Students considering a room should check current building options, eligibility, application timing, contract length, and whether a meal plan is required for their placement. Dining arrangements and hours can vary by location and academic calendar; commuters should also check what food options are available during the hours they expect to be on campus. Housing availability should not be taken as a guarantee of a particular room.
