The perfect location and size that can give you so many opportunites. There are so many ways to get involved and various majors to choose from. You are not a number here, and your professors connect with you personally. They know their craft and are always willing to help. You are real world prepared here. Everyone is so nice, and events are lively

SLU is just a school. Nothing special. There are no healthy food options on campus, and no, subway is not a healthy food option. Fall 2019 someone did get shot at a park behind the campus. At the same park people get their car windows broken and vehicles sideswiped regularly. If you have the option to go somewhere else then take advantage of it.

I detest this school. 50% of the student body are adults 30+, so there are not a lot of chances for friends. Furthermore, there is only fast food. Nothing else. Most of the teachers are nasty and downright lazy. But easy. They don't have anything fun to do, at all. Social life and friends? Nope. They offer VERY few major choices. DO NOT GO HERE.

This college is awful I give it a 0/10. I was a transfer student who could not receive any help from their faculty. Half of the time when I got on the phone with a staff member it sounded like a student who was clueless at a job and couldn’t answer my questions. The professors are average. They don’t care much about if you succeed or fail.
