The University of South Florida is a great place to meet people from all over the world and experience new cultures. The Tampa campus is huge comprising approximately 50,000 students so be prepared to face lines sometimes. Although most of my classes so far had 100+ students in one section, it really depends on the major that you are going for. With that being said, I believe USF invests a lot of resources to maintain the campus cleaned and modern, with new buildings coming up each year. I have had great moments living on campus, but there are plenty of options to stay off campus that are more affordable and convient (walkable distance to the campus). I also completely encourage you to take advantage of the other campuses that USF (St. Petersburg and Sarasota) offers and take classes in the summer close to downtown and the beach!
I’ve been studying here at the College of Behavioral and Community Sciences for about 3 years now and truly all of the classes have been insightful and structured. Additionally, the faculty here provide amazing support and care for students in reaching academic and social goals. If you’re interested in becoming a therapist or another sector in mental health, I would highly recommend getting involved in the Behavioral Healthcare program offered at USF!
I really do love this school. It’s is kept very clean and looks beautiful with all of the greenery. So far my classes and the Professors have been amazing. The only grievance I have with the school is probably just the financial aid aspect. There definitely has to be more information sessions for incoming freshman before they even get to the school. I am adopted, and my family is well below middle class. But luckily, adopted kids get free tuition covered by the state. But even with the free tuition I still had to pay out of pocket for numerous reasons on multiple occasions. I’m the interest of time, I’ll only give one scenario. I was in my first semester of college when everyone was finally returning to the real world after COVID-19. One day I looked at my aid profile and I owed $1200 because I missed the deadline to fill out a form I wasn’t aware existed let alone knew to sign. So I had to work full time and register for classes 2 days before the semester began. That’s it though! :)
