I really, sincerely love Fontbonne. Academics are challenging, but professors about your success. Great campus, lively area, wonderful people, I'm very happy with my decision to attend Fontbonne.

This school is perfect if you don't like to walk a lot. It is just big enough to have a lot going on but is not overwhelming. I love it. I takes me less than 5 minutes to get to classes. Professors are pretty awesome, once you get to know them. Food is pretty decent. A lot to do around in the neighborhood. LIVE ON CAMPUS!!!!

The school lowkey sucks. The internet is awful most of the time, and cuts out. There is no socialization here, everyone shows up and leaves. The teachers don't even have retirement, and the school itself is falling apart.

This place is pretty much a glorified community college. And this is coming from a grad student in the fine arts department. I am so unhappy here and cant wait to leave this joke of a university. Please stay away.
Overall 1.9
Fontbonne has only a few majors that worth coming here for Sociology,Psychology, sport management, education, and speech pathology. other than those majors the school is below average. However it has potential to be a great school if you help make it a better place. but most students that go there do try and make it better.

I don't know what they do with the internet but imagine how mad I would be if I pay over 1k for such a horrible internet. They say they would fix it but it has been over a month and situation hasn't got better at all.
