Former Student Association (FSA)

Our door is always open to our graduates.

We pride ourselves on our sense of community at the Franciscan School of Theology – and that community continues after you graduate. Welcome to our online alumni community.We recently created the St. Clare of Assisi Scholars program to provide ongoing support to our graduates’ ministries by making  their return to FST for classes affordable.

 

In addition, we have created an FST Former Student Association (FSA) to help expand the community throughout the world. Former Students from Germany keep in touch with each other at a site maintained by Former Student Ludger Hamm at Die FST-Seite in Deutschland.

 

Please take a minute to complete our online contact form so we can let others know where you are and what you are doing. You may also use the form to let us know other ways that we might be of assistance to you.

 

St. Clare of Assisi Scholars

Go forth in peace, for you have followed the good road. Go forth without fear, for he who created you has made you holy, has always protected you, and love you as a mother. Blessed be you, my God, for having created me.

- St. Clare of Assisi
