I am a potential transfer student and I am trying to decide between Biola, Franciscan, or just staying put. Although I liked Biola a lot, there was something about the people at Franciscan and the familiar charismatic environment that I really loved. My only concern is that it is 97% Catholic, and I have strong convictions of my beliefs (not interested in becoming Catholic). Would students be welcoming/respectful towards Protestants and/or those who do not attend Catholic events, or is there somewhat of a division? Do the majority of staff and students consider being Christian more important than being Catholic or vice versa?
