An undergraduate education from Saint Louis University isn’t only about what you major in. It’s about who you become.
A Catholic, Jesuit university, SLU educates the whole person. As a freshman, you will
take courses in philosophy and theology. During your time here, it’s likely you will
study abroad and nearly certain that you will volunteer in the community or around
the world.
At SLU, it’s cool to be smart. You can enter as an honors student, pre-law or pre-med
student. Students accepted into our highly selective scholars programs can be placed
on a guaranteed admittance track to School of Law or enjoy early application privileges
to the School of Medicine. Scholars programs also exist for business, social work
and physician assistant programs.

Academic Resources
Being admitted is only the first step. At SLU, first-year students are encouraged
to enroll in University 101, a one-credit course that introduces you to campus resources and eases the transition
from high school to college. From there, you’ll have access to academic support ranging
from your own adviser to topical study groups, to our writing center and resources that help you plan for your career.
