Saint Louis University Top Questions

There is no one who shouldn't attend SLU... It is a great, inclusive school for all kinds of people. It is right outside of downtown St. Louis, so for someone who doesn't like the city, it is a little hard to get used to, but once accustomed to it, it is awesome.

Someone who is VERY introverted (doorstops are encouraged) and who isn't always fond of going above and beyond. Someone who doesn't want to better the community will have a hard time fitting in.

I think people who love to go to football games should not go to this school because SLU does not have their own football team. Otherwise, I think anyone that wants to be a well-rounded individual should go to SLU.

Someone who wants to attend school in a college town.

A close-minded person should not attend Saint Louis University. A person who is judgmental and is unwilling to learn from people who are different from them would be very uncomfortable at my school. My school promotes diversity and appreciating each person's individuality. A person who focuses solely on themselves and is unwilling to ever step outside his comfort zone when dealing with people who are different from him might struggle at SLU. The people here strive to be open and accepting of everyone, but racisim or bigotry is not tolerated, especially if it threatens the saftey of others.

The person who is not to attend this school would be someone who is not dedicated to their education and is not willing to put in the time and effort to further their education.

Anyone! There are all ethnicities and personalities. I was very intimidated at first, especailly coming from a middle class family and a community college. After the first semester I felt very at home.

If there was a person who did not want to interact socially with people and wanted a college experience in which he/she had a quiet academic year, this would not be the school for them. The person would have to dislike campus life, being in clubs, and socializing with friends for this school to be a poor fit for them.

The kind of people who shouldn't attend this school are those who are going to college to 'have fun'. Saint Louis is not a party school and if that is what someone is spending $40,000+ to do, then it is certainly not the place. Also, someone who is not good at using their resources and those who aren't willing to work hard will not benefit from attending Saint Louis University.

A person who is used to seeing an ethnically diverse groups of people or African American students who are used to being around other African American students may not feel very comfortabl at times. Also students from lower income homes or who are supporting their family ma feel alone, or out of place, because most students at this university come from suburban, rich, or middle income families and do not easily relate to students that ome from poor families.
