The people- they care. A lot. It's like a new family. You can be unique (ie not religious in a Jesuit school, a total nerd, etc.) and still be accepted AND you can still find people who like the same things you do or find people who like things you've never heard of.
The environment- a beautiful campus feel next to the city.
The mission- while it has religious roots, community service and volunteerwork are encouraged.
The mascot- a freakin' BILLIKEN!

The diversity of Saint Louis University is incredible. One may assume that the many different nationalities here would conflict. But this is farthest from the truth. I have met many students here who are looking for the same thing as I, that is a place to prosper and call the community "family". SLU not only provides outstanding education but provides an environment that feels more like a close net community than a college. The outstanding professors take there time to teach and experience a course with their students. We may all be different in looks but common in experience.

Something unique about Saint Louis University is the effort that the professors put into helping the students succeed if they seem to be struggling. Another thing that is unique is the wide variety of people that you get to meet and become aquainted with while attending classes or just walking around campus.

My university is in Madrid, Spain which is definitely very appealing. Having an American university in another country was my deciding factor.

The location, it's located near downtoan Saint Louis. It's big, but yet small enough to get to know everyone and class sizes tend to be in the lower 20 range.

Saint Louis University is unique to prosepective students because of the family like enviroment. The staff, students and all those on campus are very kind and more than willing to help all those in need.

As a transfer student, many things about Saint Louis University caught my eye. The most important thing was the amount of care and concern that the advisors and other faculty/staff members put forth into my application process. I really felt as though they wanted me at the university. As I was applying to schools , I was scared and nervous, but after speaking to my advisor at Saint Louis University, all my fears had vanished and I didn't feel so alone. After being accepted to SLU I was elated and the rest is history in the making!

I considered many state schools when looking at colleges, but Saint Louis University, a private Jesuit university, stood out to me because of the feeling I got on campus. At many big schools, you just feel like a number, but at SLU, you feel like you're truly part of a community. You know many people you see around campus, you become friends with your professors. It's like having a little hometown inside of the big city.
