University of St Thomas-Saint Paul Top Questions

How rediculously expensive everything is! Your meal plan doesn't carry over from semester to semester and they have no program for renting books instead of purchasing them. Needless to say, students just learn to be creative. Other than that I love it here! There are a lot of opportunities, just be sure to take advantage of them right away!

I wish I knew just how much it would cost to attend. Also, I wish that I would have thought of the fact that tuition would increase every year to pay for a new mulitmillion dollar student center that won't be finished until after I graduate.

I don't think there's really anything I wish I would have known. I've enjoyed having new and unexpected experiences and finding my way through school so far.

I wish I had known how much smaller the classes are than the University I attended my freshman year. I like the small classes at St. Thomas a lot better.

I wish that I had researched more about different school and what they offerered. I realize now, how important it is to get as much information on a school before attending that school. It is possible that there could be other schools that better fit my needs in order to accomplish my career goals.

I wish I had known that the cafeteria food isn't very good but they are getting a new one so it is no longer relevant. It would be beneficial to know that all the classes are good size and the teachers are very helpful.

I wish I would have known how hard it was being a college student. Not only the schoolwork involved but also being a commuter. Being a college is tough but I wish I would've known how to handle the homework given every day, all the readings that had to be read, and the many fun activities that occured almost all the time.

I wish I had known that it was not that diverse as it claimed it would be, that it would be hard to participate in varsity sports, and I wish I knew how rigorous the course work would be.

How to manage my time better and to not get too overwhelmed all of the time.

Parking is terrible, but it is awesome living in the twin cities. There is so much to do here.
