"The school was generally what I expected. The students and staff seem to like it there and they are all very nice and friendly. The school is not really located within in the heart of the city.

No campus housing per se, however, finding an apartment does not seem hard and everyone said the cost of living in St. Louis was relatively low." Report Response
