International Admissions

Sha

Why did you choose St. Thomas?

I chose St. Thomas, because I had heard really nice things about it from my international friends and it is a nice small school with friendly and diverse people and great education.

What do you like best about St. Thomas?

The opportunity to get involved on campus widely.

What do you like about being a student in the Twin Cities area?

It is a great place, especially that St. Thomas is located right between Minneapolis and St. Paul (the Twin Cities). There is a lot to do around here.

What campus activities are you involved in?

Currently I’m a resident advisor and member in GMSA club and an International Student Ambassador. But for the future I would like to get involved more.

What advice would you give to prospective international students?

This is a great school, you will never regret the decision for choosing this school. It has a great education and opportunities to get involved on campus which helps you to improve both language and your personal experiences. Come on and join us, as we say here in St. Thomas: "Challenge yourself and change our world."
