This full-tuition scholarship enables outstanding students, with demonstrated financial need, to attend Franciscan University. Donors like you make it possible for them to achieve a Franciscan University education and embark on a lifetime of service to the Church and the world.
Student debt is a primary reason young people delay entry to seminary or religious life. The scholarship aid provided by Franciscan University’s Serra Vocations Fund to students discerning priestly and religious vocations helps them begin formation sooner.
