University of South Florida-Main Campus Top Questions

Someone who is not comfortable with large crowds or have difficulty living on their own (or at least far from their parent/guardian). Campus during the school week is always packed with people running to class, taking tours, or setting up for events. The student centers are almost never empty with students working or projects or just hanging out. Additionally, a lot of the resources on campus and off require one to take initiative to further themselves, you can't have any one holding your hand living in the city.

If you don't like walking you should not come here. The campus is very large and you will have classes that are a 10+minute walk everyday. If you don't understand accents or struggle with them don't come here. The student body is very diverse as well as the professors and some can be hard to understand but they are there for a reason and they aremore than qualified to teach you what you need. If you are afraid of squirrels don't come here. Campus is flooded with them and they will climb on you.

Every kind of person should attend this school because its so diverse and it meets the needs of everyone. If you are quiet they have places for you, if you are a party person they have so many campus parties for you, if you are from a different country they have meet and greets with other people from the same country.

The kind of person who shouldnt attend this school is someone who is going to college to join greek life and party their life away. While greek life is popular at USF, the men and women of the greek organizations on campus are more centered around philanthropic work and making a difference than throwing giant parties everynight. USF is definately not a school for someone who just wants to party.

Those looking for an all-inclusive on campus experience; USF still have a commuter campus feel to it

A person that is not motivated to learn and stay focused.

Someone who is lazy and thinks that they can skate through. You will actually have to work and study in order to pass.

The University of South Florida is a very diverse school with a wide array of different races and religions. Many would be attracted to the diversity alone in the University, however, like many universities it is not for everyone. USF is a very large school with record enrollment nearly every year. Many of the classroms are auditoriums and lecture halls. An incoming student should not expect small class sizes and personalized attention from the professor. A student must work to grab the professors attention by either attending the office hours or sitting in the front row.

Anyone not willing to be on an active, lively campus on a daily basis.

The kind of person who shouldn't attend this school is, someone who doesn't want to get involved. This school has so much spirit all around campus, and has over 600 clubs to join.
