好评:
1. Smooth Process – The people at St. Thomas are very willing to work with you to get the money you need
2. Never felt more secure this is due to it being mostly a commuter college
3. College Town – It is a nice little city in the mountains called Santa Paula. Only twenty minutes from the beach. The people are very respectful of the students and think highly of them. *(5)
