Bellarmine University Stats, Info and Facts

I love being here!!! The location is fantastic (just outside of downtown Louisville, walking distance from Bardstown Rd, a youthful area). The people are extremely friendly and welcoming. I have met some of my best friends here and love coming back to school in the fall to see them.

I have several close sets of friends here and I love being able to hang out with them. Bellarmine's population, though small, is made up of many different personalities. So while I have friends that I can sit around and chat or play games with, I also have friends that will be spontaneous and go out salsa dancing! Another bonus is that, honestly, the campus has a very friendly demeanor to it. Students walk around chatting, waving to each other, and playing frisbee in the quad. Bellarmine just doesn't have that oppressive serious and strictly scholastic feel that you can get at other universities.

The atmosphere is awesome at Bellarmine. Being a small community you really feel connected to your fellow students and BU faculty. Their diverse Study Abroad program has brought many international students to campus, and it is both interesting and fun to get to know them and learn about where they come from. There is always some type of activity happening on campus and I would encourage students to get out and get active in the community.

The Bellarmine community is wonderful. Its obvious how much everyone cares for each other. There is no lack of support on this campus--success is the goal. At Bellarmine, you'll find the tools you need to achieve it.

Because the school is small, its easy to make friends because most of the same people are in your classes. I am really close to people in my major; we form study groups and go to different events on campus together.
