The myth that ir rains a lot in Seattle is partly true, it does rain and drizzle a lot, butits really NOT THAT BAD! The beautiful sunny days make up for it ten fold.

NOT church orientated at all.
We're in the heart of one the greatest cities in the world-people are ecclectic, different, gay, lesbian, straight, conservative, liberal, wacky, fashionable, EVERYTHING. there are no stereotypes of people coming to this school, you will find every type of personality that you want

SU students don't seem to drink as much as say, UW students, but that's not to say drinking is overly difficult, and the religiosity is not as strong as one might expect. Good fincial aid means that there is a wide variety of socio economic groups. Most accurate - various student causes are constantly being pushed by someone or another, from environmentalism to homosexual acceptance.

Heck yes. Everyone is willing to help if you just ask. And they all glare at you if you litter, or throw a recyclable in the trash. Also, people are competitive to the point that gets you motivated, but not to the point where it gets you down. Also, Vallue Village will become your best friend.
Haley
Some people follow that stereotype, but honestly, Seattle U is so diverse, there are so many different types of personalities and beliefs.
Casey
Not really. Students vary from a wide-range of religious and nonreligious backgrounds. In the classroom, students feel pretty free and open to discuss all avenues of faith. However, theology classes are required of students in order to graduate. The perk is that those classes generally have some wiggle room in terms of the topic you'll discuss, so you don't wide up feeling frustrated with the inconsistency of the material you're expected to know and what you really feel.

Probably 70{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of all people here play into at least one of the aforementioned stereotypes. While many are irreligious (and often unkind to those who are religious!), they are nonetheless generally nice people. For outsiders who don't fit into the stereotypes, if you find the other 30{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the people, you'll have a good time teasing the others about their well-intended but misguided lifestyles
