    When I first visited Saint Mary, I was with a girl from Georgia who was there for track. The track coach seemed nice, even though I am not doing track. I was provided with a world of information on how to get started at Saint Mary. I loved my first experience!

    The University of Saint Mary has been extraordinary. The campus grounds and gardens are a sight to behold as they have beautiful flowers, fountains and historical buildings. The staff and students are kindhearted and always ready to show a smile. This University is a perfect example of how a college should function and behave as it is professional and carries integrity.
    I personally enjoyed university of saint Mary for the simple fact that the student to professor ratio was great. Once I graduated I had so much respect for my professors because they treated me with respect and we all seemed to be a very tight nit community within the school. The school is also very heavy on critical thinking and developing your thoughts, so yes there are a lot of papers that I had to do but it made me a better student and it helped you learn.
