St. Francis College occupies a modern campus in Brooklyn Heights, New York, situated near the East River waterfront and within walking distance of downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan. Founded in 1859 by Franciscan Brothers, the institution operates from a primary academic building on Remsen Street that includes smart classrooms, laboratories, and a rooftop athletic facility. As a private Catholic liberal arts college, St. Francis maintains selective admission standards and offers undergraduate programs across more than 70 majors, with particular strengths in business, education, and health sciences.
