Avoid this school

If you are considering St. Johns it is most likely due to the fact that applications don't require an essay and are free.

Avoid St. Johns if you plan to live on campus.

The campus is dead on the weekends. It is a predominantly commuter school. The commuter students are mostly from one of the NYC boroughs or long island. The Long island girls are stuck up and somewhat hot.

The girls who live on campus are hideous.

If you are seriously considering attending this school then visit on the weekend and see how dead it is and the lack of any good looking girls.

The classes are easy and getting A's is very doable with little effort. Classmates are lazy and browse the web most of the time in class. Pay attention take notes and attend class and there's no way to get less than a B.

Last thing the frats are ridiculous and have little benefits. Avoid them too.

If I could have gone back in time I would have chosen to go to Fordham university.

Good luck.
