The community is one of the best things at the SPU. Everyone is so welcoming and geniunely kind and it just gives you the sense of reassurance that you made the right decision.

The best thing about my school is the size. It is large enough that I am constantly meeting new people and yet feel that I know many people on campus. It is not so large that I feel lost, and it it not so small that I feel as if I know everyone.

I have always looked forward to college as the time when I was going to make really deep, lasting friendships, and that dream has definitely come true. SPU is extremely focused on community, and I love that. The importance placed on community is seen throughout campus, not just in residence halls. Faculty and staff are always available, and with smaller class sizes it is easier to develop friendships with professors. I believe that this community emphasis stems from the genuine care and concern that the individuals of Seattle Pacific University have for one another.

The community at Seattle Pacific University is excellent for every student who chooses to attend SPU. There is a place for everyone to belong. The dorm life and on campus activities are very fun and engaging and helps the school work seem more bearable.

Seattle Pacific University is a great christian school. The focuc is really directed towards God, and engaging the culture and changing the world. Its ver comforting knowing that i am earning a degree while growing spiritutally in my faith. I also really enjoy the class size, most classes are about 30 people, not very big at all. My professors actually know who i am and they are very personable. I feel like they truly care about me succeeding as a student and as a chirstian.

I love the personal attention I get from my school. College is a fast-paced and complicated place. It is very important for me to have reliable staff and faculty who can help guide me towards my goals, otherwise I feel lost. Seattle Pacific is always warning me about deadlines and instructing me about what is required of me to meet my goals. I feel that they are setting me up for sucess here.

Small class sizes and small overall school size makes the school ideal for having the ability to select your courses and getting the ones that you want most of the time. Plus they have an extremely good premedical program which will prepare those who want to pursue occupations in that field for med school.

I love how Seattle Pacific University is very welcoming and willing to help with anything needed. That is what I loved about attending a private High School, and that is what I missed when I attended Shoreline Community College. Many of the counselors are always there to talk to or to ask questions, they don’t just push you to the next available person in any department, they sit down and help you with what you need and actually try to understand what it is that you need or what it is that you are going through.
