My experience at Saint Ursula Academy was good for the first two years. We've recieved a new principal and I've made new friends. As I'm approaching my junior year at Saint Ursula Academy, many things are changing. Some things that I don't appreciate are the stricter dress code and the change in the schedule. Although Saint Ursula Academy is great in academics, I feel as though they are not so great in diversity and fairness. I've noticed racism and unfairness from not only students, but from teachers as well. I don't regret my decision in choosing Saint Ursula Academy, but I wish they would take action against the racism that occurs and listen to their students' voices.

SUA has great academics. I do believe some of the teachers give way too much homework which puts unneeded additional stress on the kids. The culture at SUA is somewhat troubling. It's very cliquey and like the movie mean girls. The administration caters to the cliquey culture and encourages it. SUA is great if you are white, blonde, bubbly and super outgoing. If you are an introvert or person of color I would consider a different school. SUA does not deal well with racial issues.

In her 1st college semester she is looking at a 3.5 to 4.0 with A's in the weed out courses for her major. St Ursula taught her how to work...

We have had two daughters attend SUA. They are both very different in personality and academic ability. They both loved the school. The school has a way to bring out the very best in the students regardless of their strenghts. If you ask most high school students how they like their school, at best...
