Student Life
Experience the Spire Life
We know we’re biased, but we truly do have one of the best communities around! Whether you’ve visited one school or a hundred, USM is different. We’re like one big family – and we don’t just say “we value community” because it sounds good, we live it out.
That means, we want the best for you while you’re here and beyond! Check out what we have to offer – keeping in mind, words can only do so much to explain “The Spire Life.”
Questions or can’t find what you need? We’re happy to help. Stop by the Keleher Learning Commons. Contact us at ask@stmary.edu or call the KLC main line at 913-758-6306.
We Are Saint Mary
Rooted in the Catholic traditions of St. Vincent de Paul, the University of Saint Mary honors our core university values of community, justice, respect, and excellence.
Residence Halls and Dining
Whether you’re 500 miles from home or just down the street, living on campus is the best way to truly live “The Spire Life.”
Clubs and Activities
Spires make learning a hands-on experience and expand their horizons by embracing new challenges. No matter what your dreams are, you’ll find a place at USM.
Keleher Learning Commons
At the KLC, we'll help create a plan for you to reach your highest academic potential and total student success – whether that’s through individualized coaching, mock interviewing, or attendance at special topic workshops covering time management and test preparation.
Technology
Students are responsible for providing their own laptops, but USM will provide you access to the latest Microsoft Office Suite at no cost.
Spiro Shop and Bookstore
The USM Spiro Shop is your home for official Saint Mary gear! Textbooks are available via our Online Bookstore through MBS.
Campus Safety and Security
The safety and wellbeing of students, faculty, and staff is a top priority at USM. We are committed to ensuring the safety of our students, employees, and visitors with effective policies and procedures, educational programming, and community involvement.
Medical Forms
If you have any questions about submitting the required medical forms, please email athletic.training@stmary.edu.
Title IX
Sexual harassment, which includes acts of sexual violence such as rape, sexual battery, and sexual coercion, is a form of gender-based discrimination prohibited by Title IX. It creates a hostile environment – and has no place on the University of Saint Mary campus.
