About

With student success at the heart of our mission, SFSU strives to realize the full transformational power of education by providing a launchpad for our students’ futures. 

Our outcomes are impressive: We are ranked eighth nationally by U.S. News and World Report in upward socioeconomic mobility, and in the top five nationally for the diversity of our student body by The Wall Street Journal. Equally important, SFSU plays a vital role as an anchor institution in the Bay Area, preparing emerging professionals, creatives, advocates and public servants who are all crucial to our region’s dynamism and innovation. 

University Advancement’s essential mission is to help support these larger goals of SFSU, through fundraising, increasing public awareness and connecting alumni with each other and to the University. To achieve these goals, we work together as a team of teams, each composed of talented and driven individuals with a passion for excellence. 

I am proud to work with my colleagues to help raise SFSU to ever greater heights, and I sincerely hope that you will join us in this good work, one student at a time. Please consider making a gift to SFSU.
