University of South Florida-Main Campus Top Questions

I wish I had known what the "size" of this school meant. 47,000 students or so means, auditorium style classes with 400+ students having to answer questions with "clickers", is possible. Because the school has such a large student body, many other things are handeled in a colonized fashion as well: particularly administration. I wish I had known the graduate rate. It's very easy to stay a little longer than intended. I wish I had done more research in regards to the majors and their course outlines.

I wish I would have known that there is a maximun dollar amount for financial aid which I was unaware of when taking out loans in the past.

Wish I'd have known from the beginning that staying off-campus is way cheaper.

That financial aid was going to be difficult to receive and that it doesn't cater to the "non traditional" student

What the whole program would require.

Before coming to this school, I wish i had known what I can do to make my stay in this community the best it can be. New students hardly know what to do with their free time and end up partying. However, the students who know the school the best are the upperclassman or alumni. Since coming here in the Fall of 2009, I feel that I have wasted a semester by not getting involved in the school. Not only that, but I believe that becoming more involved in the school would have been more enjoyable anyways.

I wish that I had decided to become a nurse my freshman year instead of taking useless classes my first year. I wish I would have gotten involved with campus life sooner, but I'm glad I finally have.

I wish I would have known that college was going to be difficult. I think I took it a little too lightly at first.

There is nothing I wish I'd known... I did my reseach before applying to the University of South Florida...
