This is a complicated question so I will address it in two separate areas: socially and academically.
Socially, I have not had a very great time at Seattle University. Because it is a private Jesuit college, there is a very large population of students from very privileged backgrounds. Being peers with people from wealthy families who went to private school their entire lives is frustrating because their views of what the reality of life is is very limited. Many of them don't work in college (and many more hadn't ever worked before) and for many of these same people school is not their priority. Seattle University students are very caught up in being glamorous rather than focusing on their own growth and benefiting from the great opportunities Seattle U has to offer.
Academically, SU has been great, as described above. The reason I have rated this area as 4 stars is because I believe that, though the social situation at SU is not what I would have wanted, for college academics trump whatever the attitudes and experiences of the students are. In encouraging me to pursue my passion of Social Work, connecting me with the community, and further opening my mind, SU has exceeded my expectations. read full review -

I love it at SU. Your professors actually know who you are and go out of their way to make themselves available. They will often give out their home phone number. If you desire small class sizes, this is the place for you. I have never had a class of more than 30.
Socially, SU is a little different. Imagine every outsider at your high school who didn't quite fit in. That is 90% of the student population. The other 10% are student athletes. As a Conservative, the extremely left-wing atmosphere has taken some getting used to. If you are like me, either be an athlete or make friends with them fast if you want to be around normal people. SU parties are small but it is worth it because everyone there is your best friend. If you are seeking a more intense, underage nightlife, University of Washington is right down the street. Ladies will have no problems getting into frat parties but guy might want to establish some connections.
Regardless of friends, the city is a fabulous location. You can never be done exploring. It is a one of a kind place for work and play. read full review
