They were attentive about their incoming students as well as enrolled students. That is why I chose to go to St. Johns University

Well, my first reason was financial need. Saint John's offered me the most money, so that played a role in my decision. But, what really helped shape my decision was the school itself. When I went there, I felt so welcomed, and the people were so friendly. I knew that this would be a smooth transition for me because of the help offered on campus and the friendly atmosphere.

I decided i wanted to go to this school when i visited the campus and realized the connection the students have with the deans and professors. I would see the students engaging in conversations with them and sitting at an outside table having lunch and i remember saying to myself "thats what i want." I wanted to go to a school where my deans and professors knew me by name and Saint John's was definitely the place. I was also drawn by the amount of campuses they had and the fact that they had one on Rome, and Mardrid, they had numerous abroad program.
