The University of San Francisco (USF) is a private Jesuit university in San Francisco, California. The university's main campus is located on a 55-acre (22 ha) setting between the Golden Gate Bridge and Golden Gate Park. The main campus is nicknamed "The Hilltop" and is split into two sections. Part of the main campus is located on Lone Mountain, one of San Francisco's major geographical features. Its close historical ties with the City and County of San Francisco are reflected in the university's traditional motto, Pro Urbe et Universitate (For the City and University).
Founded by the Jesuits in 1855 as St. Ignatius Academy, USF started as a one-room schoolhouse along Market Street in what later became downtown San Francisco. Father Anthony Maraschi, S.J. (1820-1897) was the college's founder and first president, a professor, the college's treasurer, and the first pastor of St. Ignatius Church. Under Maraschi, St. Ignatius Academy received its charter to issue college degrees on April 30, 1859, from the State of California, and signed by governor John B. Weller. In that year, the school changed its name to St. Ignatius College.
The original curriculum included Greek, Spanish, Latin, English, French, Italian, algebra, arithmetic, history, geography, elocution, and bookkeeping.

With 36% of its population born abroad, San Francisco is one of the largest and most diverse cities in the country. San Francisco&#39;s business schools exhibit this diversity. To recruit and support the significantly more brilliant and diverse health-science trainees is one of UCSF&#39;s main priorities. San Francisco University stands out as a place to study abroad due to its unequalled educational excellence and wealth of scholarship options.

The University of San Francisco&#39;s determined student-to-faculty ratio is 14:1, and 49.5% of its classrooms have fewer than 20 students.
