Student Spotlight

Aaliyah Mendoza, Nursing Student

“Felician offered me tremendous help financially with scholarships and financial aid payment plans. It also prepared me to land my dream job as a Labor and Delivery Registered Nurse at New York Presbyterian Hospital, which I will begin after graduation. I loved my Felician experience so much, I’m planning to return to pursue my master’s degree.”

Franciscan Values

Founded in 1942 by the Felician Sisters, Felician University is one of the few Franciscan universities in the country, and the only one in New Jersey. We’ve built our reputation with an emphasis on service and respect for humanity, as was the dream of Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska – the foundress of the Felician Sisters more than a century ago. Even today, we strive to represent those values in everything we do.

  • Today's #FalconFriday is all about Nas! 👏 🦅 

As an EOF student, Nas has shown incredible dedication and resilience in his journey at Felician. He is currently studying Communications with the dream of becoming a Social Media Manager.

He’s been doing an amazing job engaging with students and sharing all the exciting events happening on campus! Outside of his internship, Nas enjoys staying on top of the latest trends in digital media and is always eager to bring fresh, creative ideas to the table. We’re excited to see where his journey takes him—keep up the great work, Nas! 🙌
