Admission to the university is highly competitive, with more than seven applicants for each freshman class position. Notre Dame offers 63 bachelor degree programs within five colleges, including the College of Arts and Letters, the College of Science, the Mendoza College of Business, the College of Engineering, and the School of Architecture. Thanks in large part to the university’s unique First Year Studies program, Notre Dame’s 98 percent retention rate between the freshman and sophomore years is among the highest in the country. Notre Dame’s graduation rate of 96 percent is exceeded only by Harvard and Princeton. Notre Dame has one of the highest undergraduate residential concentrations of any national university, with 80 percent of its students living in 27 residence halls. Notre Dame is our campus, but the world is our classroom! Students at Notre Dame take advantage of international study, community-based learning, and undergraduate research opportunities. Currently, 54 percent of undergraduates spend a semester, a year, or a summer studying in one of the 30 international study programs offered in 21 countries. Community service is also a hallmark of a Notre Dame education. Over 80 percent of Notre Dame students engage in volunteer work through the Center for Social Concerns. At least 10 percent of each year’s baccalaureate graduating class spends a year or more volunteering. Finally, undergraduates at Notre Dame are deeply involved in the prolific and advanced faculty research conducted on campus and are also encouraged to develop and take ownership of their own research. At the heart of the University of Saint Francis’ picturesque 108-acre campus is tranquil Mirror Lake. Located in Indiana’s second-largest city on the former estate of industrialist John H. Bass, the campus houses the historic Bass Mansion. Founded in 1890, the University of Saint Francis, a Catholic university dedicated to Franciscan values, offers more than 50 undergraduate and graduate academic programs in five schools: The Keith Busse School of Business and Entrepreneurial Leadership, the School of Creative Arts, the School of Health Sciences, the School of Arts and Sciences, and the School of Professional Studies. New programs for fall 2008-09 include music technology, forensic chemistry, and a master’s degree in environmental science. In addition, USF is now offering dual-accept programs in Osteopathic Medicine and Chiropractic. New minors have also been added to the social work program: child welfare, diversity studies, gerontology, and forensic practice. More than 2,100 graduate and undergraduate students enjoy the benefits of individual attention from dedicated faculty. The student faculty ratio is 11:1. Within six months of graduation, some 90% of USF graduates find themselves working in a field related to their degree or enrolled in graduate school. Male and female USF students participate in a total of 15 intercollegiate sports, including soccer, volleyball, track and field, golf, tennis, cross country, baseball, softball, basketball, and football. The university is a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). 25 http://www.nd.edu http://www.sf.edu http://www.nd.edu http://www.sf.edu
