SPU is small, so all of the classrooms are only occupied by 15-30 students, rather than a 200 person lecture hall. The professors at SPU are very kind, and personable. I have had two of the same professors throughout my entire freshman year. It was good to get to know them, and I felt like I could ask them for help in any subject.

I brag most about having smaller sized classes. The students aren't just a number to the professors and we are given the opportunity to build closer relationships with our professors. By doing so, they get to know us beyond the classroom and are able to recommend internships, jobs, etc. related to our specific field of study.

What I brag about most in my school is the location. Seattle Pacific University is in one of the nicest neighborhoods in Seattle, Queen Anne Washington. It is near to so many places. Downtown is just one short bus ride away. The Queen Anne Ave. is one short walk away in the same direction as downtown. In the other direction is the hip district of Freemont and then University of Washington is also just one short bus ride away in that direction. There are also numerous beautiful parks in walking or running distance to complete the location.

If there is one thing about Seattle Pacific University that has consistently amazed me it is its incredible artistic community. SPU, due to its advantageous size, location in Seattle, and student demographics has a wonderful ability to produce some of the most artisticly talented people I've ever met. SPU is full of musicians, poets, singer-songwriters, graphic designers, etc. all constantly creating beauty in the world. I am so lucky to be a part of a group of students that care about producing art and producing it collaboratively.

I probably brag most about the class sizes at Seattle Pacific University. There are many advantages to a small school, small class sizes being one of them. I love the intimate setting of the classrooms at SPU. I get to know the name of everyone in most of my classes, and am on a first-name basis with the professor. I thrive in this sort of learning environment where I can engage in class discussions with my professors and peers.

The community is by far one of my favorite things about SPU

I love that my school is a smaller school where the professors can actually pay plenty of attention to you. The science program is great, they emphasize research reaching 90{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} acceptance into medical schools. I also love the community. Its a Christian school, but they emphasize volunteer work and you can easily get plugged in. The Robbins apartment is a great place to stay because it provides just enough privacy yet an atmosphere of socializing.

My university has a very supportive small community that makes everyone feel welcome. It is a private christian university that strives to give every student a well rounded liberal arts education and the professors are all supportive and highly intelligent as well as capable. Our school motto is "enganging the culture and changing the world" and so we strive as a whole university to better not only ourselves but help improve the world around us.

I mostly brag to my friends about SPU's mission statement: "Engage Culture, Change the world." I find that the mission statement resonates so closely to who I am and aspire to be.

It is so amazing to live in Seattle. I have had so much fun living there and also going to school because there are endless things to do and so many resources and business connections you can make while attending college and building an education.
