The campus is very nice, great walkways to get to classes, a brand new Interdisciplinary Science Building, great housing, and a small size. Webster is mostly a commuter campus, so the food options are not connected to the housing, but the university center and dining hall are both a short walk from the housing area and the buildings with classes.

Socially awful. Very cliquey.
Overall 1.9
Webster pushes unimportant aspects of learning, like making sure to stay a full four hours at night class, but neglects to make a curriculum that is challenging and competitive. It has a reputation for being a good school-no idea where that came from, it's easy.

If you are considering going here be ready to learn a lot no your own. The University teachers are generally small minded and cannot see past St. Louis and Webster let alone help you find a job in the real world. They parade their success though until you think it is possible to do anything with a degree from a glorified community college.
