University of St Thomas-Minnesota

What are the popular events and traditions at University of St Thomas-Minnesota?

St. Thomas has recurring events that bring students together for recreation and service. Documented examples include Mid-Winter Week, the World Series of Wiffle Ball and Tommies Together Day of Service.

Mid-Winter Week provides programming during the colder part of the academic year. The Wiffle Ball event centers on student participation in a campus competition, while Tommies Together organizes community-service activity. Homecoming and athletics events offer additional occasions for students and alumni to gather. Dates, formats and eligibility can change, so the current student-events calendar is more useful than an old description when planning to attend.

What are the student housing and dining options at University of St Thomas-Minnesota?

St. Thomas provides university-operated undergraduate housing, including coeducational options. Its residential choices include traditional residence halls and other housing styles, but placement depends on the applicable eligibility rules, application process and available space.

Students considering campus housing should compare room type, location and contract length, then confirm whether their class year is subject to a residence requirement or an exemption. A housing application and an admission offer are not the same thing; neither should be taken as an unconditional guarantee of a preferred room.

Campus dining includes meal-plan options and places to eat near student activity and residence areas. Plans can differ in the number or flexibility of meals and dining funds, so residents and commuters may find different options appropriate. Students planning to live off campus should also account for groceries, commuting and the possibility of classes on both the Saint Paul and Minneapolis campuses.
