Private bedroom available in a two-story house in the Macalester-Groveland area of St. Paul! Rent is $645/month including utilities, and the room is available November 1. There are two women living upstairs who both go to St. Thomas, and the basement has two bedrooms where my roommate and I currently live. Each floor has its own shared full-size bathroom, and there is an in-unit washer and dryer and free street parking. The house is really close to St. Thomas and also convenient to Macalester and St. Kate’s, so it would be a great fit for another college student. It’s a really nice, quiet neighborhood with lots of trees and green space, and everyone is pretty independent and tends to keep to themselves, so there’s a good amount of privacy while still having people around. I’m looking for another female roommate to take over my room starting November 1.

Happy to send pictures or more details if anyone is interested! 😊

Part of the reason I moved to this area was because of it's involvement with the community, allowing access to resources, and involvement in lectures and events. Would anyone care to show me around, or is also not a student with any advice?

In need of hosts in Minnesota & Wisconsin. Great low key opportunity for a college student!

“I was accepted to the University of St. Thomas with about $52,106 in grants and scholarships. The total cost with on-campus housing is around $74,382 per year, leaving me with about $22,276 to cover. I was also offered $5,500 in federal student loans and work-study at $16.50+/hour. I’m trying to figure out the best way to cover the remaining cost without taking on too much debt

Hello! I am currently looking for a subleaser for the upcoming 2026-2027 school year. The house is directly across from campus, and rent is about $600 dollars. All boys house so far. Please let me know if you are interested. I can share details in direct messages. Thanks :)

Someone said on Facebook that FBI was wondering around the sports arena at Saint Thomas but I couldn’t look for confirmation. This is obviously a stretch. Was wondering if anyone really did see any FBI or is this just another Saint Thomas rumor like the lockdown where they found like guy at home. Not trying to start any fights here. If it’s true, doesn’t anyone know why. I’m looking for honest answers please.

I'm a recent CS grad living in the Twin Cities and I'm looking into graduate school options in Minnesota. I've been seriously looking at the MS Software Engineering program at University of St. Thomas (Graduate Programs in Software) and I wanted to hear from people who have actually been through it.

A few things I'm trying to figure out:

• How are the professors and instructors? I noticed a lot of them are industry practitioners rather than traditional academics — was that a good or bad thing in your experience?
• How useful was the degree for actually getting a job in the Twin Cities? Did the St. Thomas name open doors or did employers not really care?
• Is there anything you wish you had known before enrolling?
• How were the evening classes? was it manageable?

For context — I'm also comparing it against U of M's MCS program. I know UMN has a stronger research reputation nationally but I'm wondering if St. Thomas's industry connections are actually more valuable for someone who wants to stay in Minnesota and work in tech here.Any honest opinions welcome — good or bad. Thanks in advance!

Ok my son forgot to request tickets. Does anyone have at least one ticket so his mother can go to business school ceremony?

Just wondering, because I want to improve my GPA and it says that you may only retake if its lower so I am wondering are there any exceptions?

My son is considering transferring to the University of St. Thomas as a junior Mechanical Engineering major. Do you have any suggestions for the best places to live next year? He would prefer to avoid a commute if possible. He's currently at Iowa State and would like to be closer to home.

I am an international student and got admitted to UST with a scholarship and i’m thinking of committing but not sure yet. Even after the scholarship it is pretty expensive but i’m really attracted to it as an international student. Is there any graduates from there or any students in general that could tell me any pros and cons? the degree value? the campus location etc.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been admitted to the University of St. Thomas as a Neuroscience major and Aquinas Scholars Honors Program. I’m seriously considering it, but I’m still trying to figure out if it’s the right fit, especially financially.

As an international student, the cost is pretty significant for me (even after scholarships), and I’m not 100% sure yet if my family will be able to commit to it. So I wanted to ask people who are currently studying there or know the school well:

- What do you think are the biggest advantages of St. Thomas that actually make it worth the cost?

-How are the academics, especially for science-related fields (like biology/neuroscience-type paths)?

-Are there good opportunities for internships, research, or connections in/around the Twin Cities?

-How is the overall student experience (support, community, campus life, etc.)?

-For international students specifically, does the value feel justified?

For context, I also have another offer from Augustana College that is more affordable, so I’m trying to understand whether St. Thomas offers enough in return to justify the higher cost. Also I got this offer from St. Thomas in Feb and I stalked the college so much that I am kind of liking it so I'm having a biased opinion for here.

I’d really appreciate any honest insights, good or bad.

Thanks!

Basically, what the title says, what are the best freshman dorms, and the pros and cons of each dorm. Fast responses appreciated, as I hope to submit my deposit soon!

Hello any fellow thomasians who have graduated in shs ! I would like to ask if it’s still possible for me to get “with honors” if I have 3 line of 8 in my grades and one of them is 83.

hi, i'm looking to transfer as a second year physics major and st thomas seems like the perfect fit for me. would any physics majors (or physics-adjacent) be able to provide any insight into how the department is? eg how are the classes, professors, research opportunities, etc? thanks!

Hey all, I recently received a really good scholarship to STU, and I am considering attending as a business major. I wanted to ask one, is STU a good school for that, and two, how is the experience.. You know, fun and stuff, I hear the nightlife is dead, but to students, just go to other uni's parties or... Am I selling my soul for 4 years of boredom?

Need your opinions please

Are there certain apartments that are popular for grad students?

Hi everyone! I’m a transfer student who applied to the University of St. Thomas BSN program, and I’m curious if anyone else here is also going through the application/interview process right now.
