About Us

The University Corporation, San Francisco State (UCorp) was incorporated in 1946 as an auxiliary organization; a not-for-profit public benefit corporation devoted to furthering the educational mission of San Francisco State University. UCorp aims to provide resources to the University as means to enrich the SF State experience for our students, faculty, and staff.

In fulfilling its mission, UCorp performs a variety of services throughout the campus community. Specifically, it oversees commercial operations, administers educational grants and contracts for the University, and oversees the fiscal administration for numerous University programs. UCorp also provides accounting services to the other auxiliaries on campus. All of these services are coordinated with the campus community to enhance the educational and cultural environment of the University and the surrounding community it serves.
