There is always something going on around campus and that is a big reason why I enjoy it so much. I don’t think I have ever been bored here. I have made great friends, I like my classes, my dorm is cozy.

What St. Thomas Students Say
My advice for future Tommies is to get involved as much as possible. Some of the most meaningful friendships and experiences that I’ve had were because I met people through clubs, events, games, etc. Reach out of your comfort zone to try something different and meet new people along the way!

What St. Thomas Students Say
...the most memorable moments were when a large campus full of strangers began to feel like home. Many of these moments occurred freshman year as I enjoyed conversations over meals in the dining hall, competed alongside teammates, and experienced professors sharing their belief in me.

I feel like I belong here, that my heart is attached to Minnesota. I appreciate all the chances that I have had. I feel confident enough to tell people about my experiences and how my efforts resulted in fruits. I get to be known and I get to know people. It’s been a lovely journey.
