San Francisco's University
Since its birth in 1855, USF has shaped the city of San Francisco, and the city has shaped USF. Today, USF and San Francisco offer you a culture of innovation, energy, and optimism that you won’t find anywhere else — and offer you nearly unlimited opportunities for learning, research, internships, jobs, and fun.
At USF, the city is a neighbor, a friend, a classroom, and a testing ground. Come to USF and take classes that serve the city. Come to USF and tour top city firms. Come to USF and do work that does good.
