Robyn from Apo, AE

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot As being raised in the military while living overseas since I was ten years old, I was return to the USA right after graduation. Thankfully Webster had a study aboard college in London, UK, which had the only major I was interested in; Film Studies. There are many film companies in the city including the (British Broadcasting Company) BBC Studios and Pinewood Studios. My professors are British but they also had worked for these companies as well. They are very helpful and advise me which pathway is better for me to take for my film career.
Bang for the buck No matter what university or college a student is attending, there is always going to be a question about financial. However unlike Webster University, the university is spread out onto military bases and study aboard in Europe and Asia. In other words, it gives students an opportunity to travel and explore other cultures (study abroad) or have another shot of receiving an education while serving the American country.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Webster University is a unique college located in a beautiful neighborhood. It's small class sizes make it personal and student oriented. Also, Webster's strong international presence makes the student body diverse and interesting.
Tips for prospective students Prospective students should plan on getting involved on campus to learn about ll the opportunities that Webster has to offer. Webster can be an amazing place to learn and thrive but only if the student allows himself or herself to grow and thrive.
Academic Rigor Webster's classes, although not as rigorous as other St. Louis Universities, are challenging enough to prepare students for their prospective fields. With such small class sizes, professors can get direct feedback from students on the rigor of the class.
Dorm Life Webster University recently built two new dorm buildings. The communities found in the dorms on campus are strong and happy. Students get to know their Resident Assistants well and they're comfortable and happy in the updated rooms.
Food and Dining Marletto's, Blimpie's, Freshens and WOW Chicken all provide many options for students dining on campus. Marletto's supports vegan and vegetarian lifestyles and well as many other kinds of foods. The University Center has three different options for those who want food on the go. Sandwiches, chicken, burgers, pretzels and smoothies are all offered.
What to do for fun Webster Groves offers many fun places to hangout such as Weber's Front Row or Blackburn Park. Beyond that, St. Louis city offers many venues, restaurants, bars, theaters and other places for college students to enjoy. Webster University itself always has events going on like plays, movie screenings and fake proms. A special highlight of Webster's is the annual Drag Ball.
Bang for the buck Webster University is worth the price tag. The campus is lovely and accessible, the professors are intelligent and informed and every student graduates with what they need to survive in the real world.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Webster has a University Center like many colleges and universities. But unlike other college and universities, Webster has a flag hanging to represent each country that Webster students come from. There are over 50!
Great for these types of students Webster University is great for artistic, different, intelligent students who enjoy personalized attention and small class size.
Clubs and Activities Webster University has many diverse clubs and activities. From the Quidditch Club to the Student Education Association, Webster has an academic or fun club for every student.
Greek Life Webster is not strong in the Greek Life category. But, although there is only one sorority, Delta Phi Epsilon is a strong sisterhood of intelligent women who volunteer in and around the community.
Campus Safety The city of Webster Groves is an extremely safe area and Webster University has many safety precautions. Campus Security patrols 24/7 and all the parking areas are well lit at night. There are also many blue light safety poles where people can press a button for emergency services.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot The General Requirement for this school is like no other. Instead of the boring English 101 everyone takes, I took Play-writing. The small classes make it much easier to learn and get help on harder subjects.
Am enjoying being here Webster Groves is pretty out the way for me, but once I get there, there's usually some fun activity going on. There are plenty of clubs to join for just about every hobby, and if you can't find one, they're happy to help you make your own.
Bang for the buck It is a pretty expensive school, but it's worth the good education you'd be getting and looks good on resumes. They also have pretty fun activities throughout the year for students..
Tips for prospective students Take notes, highlight books, do the homework. Keep notes and graded papers for finals and midterms, they will be helpful for that last week of crunch time.
Great for these types of students This is definitely a school for the nerds and the geeks. For the people who actually value getting an education.

Am enjoying being here Enjoying your time at Webster is somthing you will have to adjust to. It takes a long while and alot of hard work, but it will all pay off.

Great for these types of students Business, Communications, and International Students

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences it is a very diverse and open school with many different types of people that you may not run into everyday.
the class sizes are small and the professors are always very willing to help.
social life and athletics on campus is not a priority here.Tips for prospective students be open to new and different people or else you will not make many friends.
try to get involved as much as you can so you can actually know everyone on campus even though you will know everyone because the campus is so small.Academic Rigor the classes are not necessarily very hard but you do need to go to class because many professors take attendance and as long as you do the work well you should be fine.
Dorm Life i did not like my first roommate so i did not have a good experience. i did not enjoy living in a dorm. the one thing that was nice was the bathrooms in the suites.
Food and Dining marlettos is alright. they serve a lot of the same food all the time. the places in the uc are alright as well. it would be nice if they had more options and later dining hours.
What to do for fun there are events on campus every once and awhile to go to. athletics are not that exciting compared to other colleges.
Bang for the buck webster is very expensive and the only reason i attend is because i have very good financial aid. i do not think it is worth the amount the tuition is.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus there are many homosexual people. i have no problem with that but just a heads up. there's a lot more than any other school.
Great for these types of students artsy, homosexual, hipster, unathletic
Clubs and Activities there are quite a few clubs but none of them seem that exciting. i have gone to a few meetings here and there but none of them seemed that interesting.
Greek Life there is one sorority, delta phi epsilon. i am in it and those girls are probably the fakest people i have ever met. i do not suggest joining.
Campus Safety there's public safety who drive around in their little cars making sure everyone's safe. i've never seen them actually save anyone because webster groves is not dangerous. they just ticket people a lot.
