Felician University, founded in 1942 by the Felician Sisters, is one of the few Franciscan universities in the country and the only one in New Jersey. Its reputation was built on an emphasis on service and respect for humanity, in line with the vision of Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska. To this day, the university continues to embody these values in all that it does.
