University of St Thomas-Saint Paul Top Questions

The amount it costs for the education I have recieved from poor quality professors

The price of on-campus living and the living situations that follow.

My school is almost too small at times. A lot of the time, I feel like I am in High School.

I guess to me the most frustrating thing is that despite the overwhelming feeling of being welcomed there is still problems with discrimination. It is difficult to feel accepted in a comunity where some of the professors are openly prejudice against G.L.B.T. students.

For me, the most frustrating part about St. Thomas is the cost and financial resources. I do not come from a wealthy or one who is paying for my college education. Instead, I am paying full tuition on my own. It is frustrating and scary to take out loans for thousands of dollars each year. I wish there would be more resources available to earn financial assistance through the school because it is hard when money is always a factor. I would love to study abroad and pursue other opportunities but it will take a lot of financial assistance.

Finding the money to pay for my education. Currently my tution is 38 k a year. I cover this with several scholarships, a grant, and several loans. I feel like the school is worth the tution sum, in both surroundings and available equipment, to the education itself. But having a heavy school load and demanding classes, it is hard to hold a job to pay for my education and I have to rely on loans.

The classes have such a mixed level of abilities, the professors tend to teach to the lowest common denomenator and is frustrating for those most focused. As well, tuition is so expensive even for someone who works full time and goes to school full time.
