WHAT KIND OF STUDENT WILL YOU BE?

You will take classes that challenge the way you think about the world. You will learn about issues and causes that inspire you to not only learn more, but to do more. You will find people who share your interests and passions—change-making STUdents, community-building STUdents, and future-shaping STUdents. What kind of STUdent will you be?

EXCLUSIVELY LIBERAL ARTS

You will engage in a unique style of education that caters to who you are and what you want to learn about the world.

 

Our liberal arts approach to a Bachelor of Arts means you will choose courses from different academic departments before narrowing your focus in upper years of study. You won’t be restricted to one field of study. This cross-disciplinary approach will provide you with a wide range of knowledge and a versatile skill including:

  • Advanced critical thinking
  • Creative problem solving
  • Research and analysis
  • The ability to adapt to new ideas and technologies

Academics at STU

For 110 years, students from around the world have chosen St. Thomas University for a student experience they can't find anywhere else. Study your interests, explore different fields, learn to understand important issues, and use your education to make a difference.

TIGHT-KNIT, SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY

You will form meaningful connections with peers and professors.

 

The small size of our campus, and our sole undergraduate focus on Arts means you will get to know fellow STUdents and professors in small classes that allow for engaging dialogue and encourage collaborative learning. New faces soon become familiar through common courses and shared interests.

Inside our Community: International Wall of Flags

Each year, we update our International Wall of Flags—located in Sir James Dunn Hall—to acknowledge the countries of our current international STUdents. This year, international STUdents make up 11% of our student body and represent 41 different countries.

MEANING, PURPOSE, AND VALUE

You will grow in ways you never imagined.

 

With the support of professors, you will learn to explore controversial and competing ideas with informed judgment. You will be given opportunities to apply what you’re learning through service learning, internships, and experiential learning. These opportunities will help you cultivate important connections and lay the foundation for your professional network. You will graduate knowing which causes matter most to you and how you want to use your degree to help others.
