Knowing the people and the campus makes everything seem a little better.

The best thing about my school is the credibility it has to back it up as well as the many campuses it has across florida.

Chelsea

The best thing about my school is the accademic opportunities that are provided to all of the students. Even though I am only a sophomore, I am well aware of all the chances to do reasearch, intern, or even study abroad. Through my school e-mail, I am given an outline on all of these possibilties. The faculty is very approachable, and making a meeting to see them is easy. Walks in are even acceptable, assuming no one is too busy. These opportunities will be so helpful and will look great when I am trying to get a job.

Adelia

The landscape is amazing, all of the building have their own unique look and composition so you aren't looking at the same brick walls all the time. Each building at USF has its own flow and has something new to offer to students. We have a mix of modern innovative green buildings and a few of the standard "college" buildings. USF is very green, there is so much nature still present on campus, lots and lots of trees and fresh air. Being in Florida its perfect to find a nice tree and spot of grass to lay and study on.

melanie

the best thing about the school is the broad variety of academic majors and educational programs. i like this about the school the most because, since it has such a large assortment of subject areas, i will be able to get a well rounded education. i can major in one specific feild and minor in another, with out having to transfer schools. i feel that it offers me a better educational opportunity.

Santiago

I think the best thing about my school is the cultural diversity it offers. USF is one of the top universities in Florida in the number of internatinal students. This is a great thing and advantage because now we live in a globalized world, trading in China, science in Europe, culture and religion in Asia an South America, all this features make it mandatory to know and learn from one an other. Thanks to USF's diveristy I have friends from all over the world, and each with different points of view.

Dominic

The best thing about USF is the on-campus spirit. Everyone on campus is generally very happy and eager to help each other and ready to learn. Our campus is a great place to be whether it is 3 A.M and you are walking home from a long night studying at the library or it's 8 A.M and your on your way to the first class of the day.

The thing I liked most was the research-focused science department. I was a biomedical science major and will be attending medical school, so I believe that USF prepared me well for my future as a physician.

Ivan

The best thing abou my university is that we are a growing institution. Some schools have been there for hundreds of years and have no room to grow. We, as the student population, choose where we want the school to grow.
