My classmates are supportive, interesting, diverse, friendly and in many case they are personal friends.

Everyone is completely focused on their academics, it's a little overwhelming.

My classmates are intelligent people who have the desire to excel in all aspects of their life, especially their schoolwork.

I was immersed in a highly international atmosphere and met some of the greatest friends of my life, from every corner of Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Although I am not to return, I still keep in touch with them each via Skype. I would have not made this effort if I had not come to know such individuals that only this campus could offer. There were so many people I came to know, I can't begin to explain the nature of each and our relationships, but each taught me something new of a different country and culture.

There are a lot of white kids, of course, but there are also an increasing amount of minority students. It's decently diverse at SLU--you won't walk to class without seeing a minority student. People tend to be nice enough to say hi as you walk by, or hold the door for you, etc. Kids come from all over the place to SLU.

My classmates are all working adults and we all want to succeed in life. We have experienced the highs and lows of life and now at a point in life were we want to focus on success.

My classmates are intelligent, caring, fun, well-rounded people, who get along with each other and faculty very well and respect each other and the environment.

My classmates were very smart and wealthy.

My roommate freshman year was the dumbest girl I've ever met. She only took 9 credit hours (and failed at least one of the classes), but the school still paid for almost ALL of her tuition. SLU loves students of a minority background, so the rest of us get screwed financially. Father Biondi, the president of the university, once told a group of students that the only way he could suggest raising money was to "stand on the corner of Grand and Lindell with a tin can."
