Neumann College, founded and sponsored by the Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia, is a Catholic co-educational institution of higher education in the liberal arts and Franciscan traditions. The College offers undergraduate degrees in a broad variety of subjects, six graduate programs, and an accelerated bachelor's degree program for adults. The College offers an education based on the concepts that knowledge, while valuable in itself, is to be used in the service of others, and that learning is a life-long process.
