Sure, I'd be glad to provide some insight into the atmosphere and resources at Mount St. Mary's University Los Angeles!

Mount St. Mary's is quite unique as it's primarily a women's college within a vibrant city setting. Many students comment on the close-knit, supportive community at the school due to its smaller size. The school has often been described as friendly and collegial rather than overly competitive, with students generally being supportive of each other.

With regard to the resources, the university offers a solid set of student services. Internship and career services are notably strong here, and the advising staff and faculty are often cited as being genuinely interested in the students' well-being and progress. Added this, the student-to-faculty ratio is 13:1 which facilitates more personalized attention.

Additionally, given the university's location, students can also take advantage of the broad range of cultural and professional opportunities that LA offers. Many students leverage the close proximity to the city for internships, part-time jobs or simply for entertainment and exploration.

However, do note that the school is located somewhat in the hills away from downtown LA. So while the location offers great views and a more relaxed campus vibe, it also means you may need to plan a bit to get to city attractions.

In general, doing your best to visit the campus, or talk to current students or alumni, can offer a great deal more depth to understanding what life at Mount St. Mary's would be like.

Keep in mind that experiences can vary widely, so it helps to reach out to as many sources as possible to get a well-rounded understanding of what the school might hold for you.
