Hamline University
Hamline University has an eclectic, odd sounding name but is actually quite a traditional institution, the first university in Minnesota. It now has an enrolment of around 4000 students. These are mostly studying liberal arts, and the Masters programs at Hamline are among the top in the Midwest, according to US News and World report.
Saint Paul - Software, Sporting Goods and Steering Wheels
Saint Paul is a twin city with Minneapolis - between the two towns there are one and a half million people employed, out of a population of 3.2 million people. Major employers for graduates in Saint Paul include the 3M company, Ecolab, Securian Financial Group, Gander Mountain, Lawson Software, and St Jude Medical as well as all the related industry that is necessary in one of the largest metro areas in the US.
The area around Hamline University is very walkable, scoring 78 out of 100. There are plenty of grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, bars, clothing shops and fitness centers in the district within an easy quarter mile walk.
However, if you plan on ever seeing the area outside your university, a car is extremely useful! The public transit system in Saint Paul is nowhere near as developed as in Minneapolis (despite Saint Paul being the official capital city of Minnesota!). Renting a car, or buying your own, are the easiest options.
Hamline Apartments for Students
Fortunately, most of the neighborhoods close by to school are residential ones - although we know there are still plenty of facilities scattered through the housing and apartments. Merriam Park East and West, Snelling-Hamline, Energy Park and the somewhat noisy West Frogtown are all within easy reach of school.
Saint Paul is possibly one of the best balanced university neighborhoods in the nation, with a good mix of services, plenty of residential areas nearby, and also good prices for apartment rentals in the region.
Although there isn't a huge variety in Saint Paul (Minneapolis has more), apartments start from around $500 per month, and prices climb fairly steadily to around $800 per month for larger sized, better-equipped apartment complexes.
Dining and Nightlife in the Hamline area
Being fairly close to the city center (and not too distant from another - Minneapolis!), Hamline University has a good variety of dining and nightlife options withing easy walking distance of school. Groveland Tap has a great Friday fish fry as well as traditional American fare, while The Turf Club offers sweet drinks in a dive bar atmosphere.
Check out Punch Neapolitan Pizza and Little Szechuan for lunch, of the Coffee News Café for cheap and cheerful belly fillers.
