            Seattle University taught me the skills, humility and caring to succeed in my work, community and family. The broad perspective and freedom from judgement within the classroom opened my eyes to a much bigger world. If you or someone you love is considering Seattle University, it is without hesitation that I say GO!

            I am a proud double alumni of Seattle University! My Jesuit education helped prepare me not only for my career but for life. I had the benefit of excellent faculty, personalized attention and a class room experience that gave me a rigorous academic experience. I had access to all the city of Seattle had to offer as well as access to many community connections and networking opportunities. Not to mention the Jesuits on campus who looked out for me! Definitely a great campus and a great education. Go Seattle U!

            I was a recently discharged Army combat veteran when I was accepted at SU, and I found it to be a warm and welcome environment to recover from my experiences in the war while getting the best education possible. I cannot imagine a more veteran-friendly school and even though I have graduated SU still feels like my second home.
