University of St Thomas-Saint Paul Top Questions

The Community

The best thing about St. Thomas is that even though you are surrounded by people who are from the same economic statuses, similar backgrounds, and dress the same way, there is still room for you to learn something from each person. Each person here is different, but it takes a little more than a first glance to realize this. You must take the initiative to get to know each and every person and realize that even though people may appear to be the same, each person is an individual with their own characteristics, views, and talents.

I think the best thing about St Thomas is they do a really great job at helping you post-graduation. Firms and businesses are often on campus through different clubs to talk about their business and inform students on internship opportunities. The career center also does a great job at assissting students to get internships. There is constantly opportunities to help students get a job once they have graduated.

The best thing about the University of St. Thomas is the size. It is big enought where you can choose to immerse yourslef or stand out. It is also big enough to provide more than just a small town enviornment. It is also nice to be located in the Twin Cities. You are just a quick drive, or bus ride, from both Minneapolis and St. Paul.

I love the one on one time with professors. UST is small enough to accommodate that.

The best thing about St. Thomas is the organizations on campus. There is always something going on (from picnics to speakers) that are fun to go to. There is a club for every major, and there are a lot of fun volunteering organizations. Once you get involved with one it opens up so many more opportunities to make friends and have fun.

The best thing about St. Thomas is the campus environment. It is a small university so you know alot of people around campus, but it is also big enough so it does not feel like a high school.

The best thing about my school is the faculty and how they make every student an individual rather than a simple number. The faculty crates a great environemnt to learn in and allows students to expand their knowledge with numerous of techniques and other strategies. The faculty also are there to help and expan your knowledge because of their love of he subject they are teaching and the way they wish to teach that sbject.

My school is relatively small, so the classes feel intimate and comfortable. My professors have all been fantastic; very enthusiastic about what they are teaching and extremely eager to help students. Having such quality professors is so important because it made me excited to learn, but comfortable asking for help. Because of this I earned good grades and feel like I have really received an enriching education that I may not have gotten with a lower quality staff of professors.

The best thing about the University of St. Thomas is the small class size. This allows for more individual attention inside and outside of class. I have really got to know my professors and they are pretty accessible to ask for help. The small class size encourages asking questions and gives a small community feel to the classroom. The majority of classes are under 25 students and allows for more one on one help from the instructor.
