The University of Tampa Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Emily

Nothing. I came for the experiance and the adventure of not knowing anyone or anything and growing as a person and learning so much, I knew plenty about my program and the school to know it was the right fit for me.

MariaAnna

Before attending my University, I learned a little bit about what my school offered to undergraduates, specifically freshman, such as tutoring, activities, groups, etc. What I wish I had known a bit more about was where everything was located on campus. By now, I know where everything is located, but I do believe it might have been easier for me to get around campus if I had familiarized myself with maps of the campus or the buildings on campus beforehand.

Melissa

i wish i knew how to manage my time and money more.

Rebecca

1.) That the overall GPA is 2 points higher than most schools (92 instead of 90)

Robbin

I found it hard to make the adjustment from the community college I attended to a private university. The workload was much heavier but I adjusted well and was able to maintain a 4.0 GPA dispite working, going to school full time, traveling two hours and day and raising a family as a single mom. I've learned more self control at the University of Tampa than I have at any other school I've attended.

Stephanie

marta

Sean
