The University of Tampa Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Karsten

One of the first things that strikes you is the beautiful campus and the excellent Florida weather. However, if you delve further into the university you find much more that you can appreciate. If you like small campuses and class rooms, Tampa is just right for you. With an average of about fifteen to twenty students per classroom you can get a lot of hands on help from professors. Also, our professors are very good at their job and I have not heard a student complain over one yet. Lastly the dorm rooms for freshman are above average by far.

The best thing about University of Tampa is location. It is located in beautiful downtown Tampa right on the hilsborough river. This location makes for a nice scenery and allows students to study outside.

I love the atmosphere and size of my school. It is smaller than most universities, so I have smaller classes which allows me to be more active in class discussions. My professors also have a chance to get to know me as a person and they are there to provide help for me when I need it.Morover, the close knit atmoshpere makes me feel like I am at a second home while in school. I don't get overwhelmed by the size of the campus and this has helped me adjust well to the school.

The things I like most about the Univeristy of Tampa are the smaller class sizes and the honors programs availble to students. I was very intrigued by their study abroad programs they offered, as well as, the internship opportunities availible to students after graduating. I found the staff extremely helpful and availible to their students at all times.

The small environment. It feels as once you get to know people, you see them everywhere and it makes a person feel good to know people and be able to see them everywhere on campus. You still see different people everyday and the same faces as well.

The University of Tampa is a smaller campus and that is very nice. The class course selections maybe small as compared to big state school but the things I have learned are phenomenal. The school caters to our major and ensures that we are prepared for the future and graduation. We are placed with advisors who care and for those who live on campus ,we are shown someone cares. There is always a helping hand at my school and there are always ways to better ourselves as students and be prepared for our future in what we love!

The best thing about my school is that the class sizes are small so it is a very intimate setting and the professor/student relationship as well as the relationship amongst the students is very close knit.

The University of Tampa has a beautiful campus in the heart of Tampa Bay, but is just the right size that you don't feel lost. All the proffesors actually care about their students and work hard to ensure students understand the material. The class sizes are small, with a student to teacher ratio of 15:1. You really have the opportunity to effectively learn in the best possible environment. There is such a positive energy at the university that it is near immpossible to not be successful in your collegiate career. The only negative is the price of tutition.

Angielique

The best thing I consider about my school is its small classes. The University of Tampa has a fifteen to one student teacher ratio. I believe that the small classes help me focus more in class. The lecture classes have never been over twenty five students in my experience. This also helps the student/professor relationship. Which means any time I need to talk to a professor about any issue I might have, I have a name to my face, not just a number in a crowd.

Amanda

The faculty is well rounded and shares their knowledge and experiences with the students. It is a very diverse campus; both students and faculty come from all over the world. It gave me an opportunity to experience other cultures and generate relationships beyond what I was expecting attending this University.
