I am grad student at Wash U.
I have had only positive experiences here. The student body is great and the professors are very supportive and seem to care about both teaching and research. All faculty and staff are very friendly. The facilities are beautiful, as well. Classrooms and libraries are much nicer than at most universities. There is good access to computers and printing services on campus. Students also have access to transit cards that let them use the bus and Metrolink for free. It is one of the smaller universities that I have been at, and as a result, the library isn't as well-stocked as I am used to but if you ask for books early enough the inter-library loan system works very well. Class sizes tend to be smaller than at the larger universities, too, which is good because it allows for more direct interactions with professors.
St Louis is an okay city - there is a nice atmosphere in the areas right around the university. It is expensive to fly in and out of, though. And every time there is a storm the power seems to go out for days at a time... Hopefully that will stop happening, though!

The bad is- it's in St. Louis, even traveling to St. Louis is expensive, most universities are expensive, and she'll probably have to pay tuition every year. The better universities are in California.
