(constituting the STI Classic Funds, hereinafter
referred to as the "Trust") for the period ended
May 31, 2002, we considered its internal control,
including control activities for safeguarding
securities, in order to determine our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion
on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance
on internal control.

The management of the Trust is responsible for
establishing and maintaining internal control.
In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls.
Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit
pertain to the entity's objective of preparing
financial statements for external purposes that
are fairly presented in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.  Those controls
include the safeguarding of assets against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control,
errors or fraud may occur and not be detected.  Also,
projection of any evaluation of internal control to
future periods is subject to the risk that controls
may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions or that the effectiveness of their
design and operation may deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not
necessarily disclose all matters in internal control
that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants.  A material weakness is a
condition in which the design or



operation of one or more of the internal control
components does not reduce to a relatively low level
the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud
in amounts that would be material in relation to
the financial statements being audited may occur
and not be detected within a timely period by
employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions.  However, we noted no matters
involving internal control and its operation,
including controls for safeguarding securities, that
we consider to be material weaknesses as defined
above as of May 31, 2002.

This report is intended solely for the information
and use of the Board of Trustees, management and
the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties.
