Outstanding university. Jesuist and very liberal. As a former student I'm must say that the experience was unique....

A nice campus. Doesn't look as big as yonsei university though. It sits mostly on a hill. You can tell that it is a religious college, I think it's Catholic. There is a nice area in the middle where students can sit and lounge around on the lawn. There are also a bunch of tennis courts on the side.
