STU Bobcat's Review

Review of St. Thomas University

from FL

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Professors are great. Whats best is the same class sizes; they allow for a more personalized education. Plenty of areas of study to choose from, however, the classes in less demand are on rotation so you might have to wait a semester to take a class you want. On the bright side, if the class you need is not being offered faculty are so nice and willing to work with you.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

How can you not? Its south Florida! the campus is small and beautiful with trees providing shade and ponds that add to the open, fresh, and invigorating sense of the campus. The people are friendly and you will meet students from all over the world, STU prides itself on its diversity.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Plenty of scholarship opportunities and again, the small class sizes ensure a personalized education, something targeted at where you need it to be. Plus, the small class sizes gives professors a chance to get to know you personally and come recommendation time for grad school, this will pay off big!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Take advantage of the small size of the university. Faculty are so helpful and it is obvious they love their job, so dont be afraid to go to someone with a question or a problem. You will soon find yourself with a few professors-- even outside of your area of study-- that you connect with on a more personal level (and this will make going to class that much easier).

Which types of students will excel at your college?

STU is great for the leader type. There are so many opportunities for leadership, be it student government, clubs and organizations, or research with faculty. It hard to not get involved in something because the faculty are so easy to get along with and the students are so fun and energetic. Aside from its diversity, STU is known to build leaders for life and you really will leave St Thomas a leader.
