Code of Student Conduct

The University of St. Thomas expects a high standard of conduct from all of its students. Appropriate to our Catholic identity, these standards are grounded in the University’s mission statement and the Basilian tradition. The Code of Student Conduct specifies both individual and group behavioral expectations that students must maintain to meet these standards as well as the process followed when these standards are not met. The personal conduct of a student becomes a concern of the University when it contradicts the standards expressed in the Code of Student Conduct. The Office of Student Affairs administers the University’s non–academic regulations listed in the Student Handbook, which can be found here. In addition, the University expects its students to obey all local, state and federal statutes.

Questions regarding the Code of Student Conduct may be directed to the Division of Student Affairs - (713) 525-3570 or deanofstudents@stthom.edu.
