Joke of a University. Not enough parking for students yet they still charge a parking pass and give you a ticket if youre in a non student spot. On top of that the profs NEVER respond to emails. They ALL claim "I get 200-300 emails a day, cant get to all of them." Really? Because it's your job to get to ALL of them. This school is just a money hungry pit. They sent me to collections over 50$, i paid it over a year ago and they STILL wont remove it from my credit. Even AFTER GAURANTEEING ME IN AN EMAIL, IT WOULD BE FULLY RESOLVED AFTER I PAID IT. This is what they do to their students, send them to collections to ruin their chances of success. SPC is a better school and its a Community College. This place you're just a number for them to make money off you. Scam artist school.

While the campus seems nice and my daughter likes her classes, they have no problems robbing her of her money on classes she never took. She dropped a class at the beginning of the semester and picked up a replacement (same transaction). At the end of the semester, they demanded money for the class she didn't take so she could register for upcoming classes. She petitioned the school, had the professor make a statement about her never showing on her roster, and still denied her argument. So, am I to understand that you don't even believe the faculty at your own institution? Bunch of crooks exploiting students and holding their continued educations hostage. Someone should be fired for these transgressions, either the untrustworthy professor or the thieving administrator.

I loved 4 years at USF. I very genuinely had an amazing experience while obtaining my B.S. in the Health Sciences. While I did have a few experiences with professors that didn't particularly seem to care about their students success, the overwhelming majority did care and did take the time to make sure their students succeeded. It was very cool to see the campus grow and expand while I was there. Now there is a grocery store on campus, new and modern dorm rooms, and dining options that weren't there during my tenure there from 2014-2018. It's nice knowing that my Alma mater is doing well!!! Just wish they would take care of their golf course across the street from their campus!

USF STEALS YOUR LOAN AND DOESN'T GIVE IT BACK TO YOU. They are currently holding my loan without giving it back to Sallie Mae or myself, which I was trying to use to finish paying last semester as well as this semester. So now it's accruing interest because they have stolen it. They also didn't even let me use it to pay for classes this semester because they won't put it towards paying off last semester, so I couldn't take my classes this semester. This college doesn't care about it's students or their mental wellbeing and financial health.

  • Robert Mcmillian

I have moved all of my medical visits to this all-inclusive location. The doctors are all very well trained and Care is consistent across all departments so far for me. Having a fairly rare ailment myasthenia gravis I have found that the neurology department here is bar none the best and I'm very thankful that I live close enough to receive my regular care here. Dr Bradshaw is the absolute best.

This was our first time going to a USF basketball game. It was unfortunate that they lost. I spoke with an employee to find out was a lil concerned they do nothing for Veterans and the shirts they throw people although a very nice thing to do wouldn't fit my lil girl as it was very small. She was upset. How do you gain access to the area between gates c and d that requires a special pass?

  • M e r r yann

Went for a concert at Yuengling. Parking was easy. SMALL arena. Every seat should be a "good seat" since it's so small inside. However, the 1st level is NOT good seating since it's almost ground level. The people standing on the floor block your view. Bought row A so there would be more leg room, nope, a guard rail was touching our knees Should of saved money and got the cheap tickets.

  • Douglas Stimac

They've got a lot of green space they let overgrow over the summer break - I don't think they need to keep it short when the students aren't actively using campus - but they could plant other things that may take slightly more maintenance but would benefit the community at large - fruiting trees and vegetable gardens? Is that too much to ask?

  • Amy Rivera

Love my doctor's and the staff only slight complaint i have is the parking garage be sure to get there early Incase it's full i spent 35 min looking for parking. I asked if what would happen if i park on any other floor and they said it would be a $75 fine. You could always valet as an option. I think it's like $2-$5 compared to the fine.

  • Jordan A

USF has such a beautiful campus based on the tour that I went on. Considering the fact that I haven't applied yet, I can't speak on the financial aid and things such as that. There's nothing at the moment to speak negatively on besides the fact that there's an amusement park literally across the street which causes a lot of traffic.

Are the full time USF staff members, none student employees, maintenance, grounds keepers, “blue collared”, “working class” earning enough to provide for housing and food without government assistance? Basically I’m just making sure I’m not spending money at a place that is paying $14.00, $16,00 to full time staff members in 2022?

  • Komal Matai

One of the best schools in the country! Beautiful campus and very well maintained. I’ve been affiliated with USF for almost 7 years now and counting..USF is the star of Tampa/South Florida. Easy transport on campus with Bull Bus service. Lots of parks on campus and open spaces to enjoy nature..

  • Cheyenne Schumacher

Overall pretty good. The campus is nice and feels safe. Students are super nice. Tons of things to do in the area. Professors are mostly good. They need to update the degree works system, brings back and fix schedule planner, and expand parking.

  • Gabriel Solorzano

Amazing university with super affordable tuition, over 200 majors. There campus to choose, Tampa, Saint Petersburg and Sarasota. Library has a lot of options, study areas, computers and everything you would expect from a top notch institution.

  • Google Reviewer

I have a lot that I could say in my review for USF - Tampa campus. I’d say 99% of it is positive! If you’re considering going here yourself or enrolling your child, then I fully support you! This is embarrassing to admit, but here it goes:

  • Christie Steele

I'm a transfer student from out of state. I've been here for a year now and I can't believe how incredible this university is. It's so affordable for what you get. All of the local/regional public universities back home were around $10,000

  • Adam Shalashaska

They have great courses for those interested in political science. I knew a man named Donald Anderson who sadly passed away in 2005, but before that he was the chief of DARPA and he had taken a few classes before going to another college

  • Vplan0019

So far, I do like this university, even though there are some trouble with the traffic around ( some times there are terrible drivers around campus that make your drive experience down a lot). Education is fair, most educators are great.

  • C R

Claims to be vet friendly, hardly. The customer service at this school doesn’t exist. You will never be invoiced so you may never know you have a balance on your account until you wonder where is my diploma...oh. Balance? Weird. I never

  • John Paul

Stay away from doing business with the Federal Credit Union that is part of USF. I held a checking account with them for about 10 years while obtaining my Bachelor's and Master's degree. When I graduated I moved away, updated my mailing

  • Daniela Valdes

They need to get an announcer that can actually pronounce graduates names properly, it’s a joke to get someone that butchers names when you know your school has a ton of international students with non-english names. Ruined the moment

  • Roxanne Roumell

I was a nontraditional student living as a freshman. I am very proud of myself for trying. The University life is like a city in itself. I was looking forward to the sleeping pods ... @USFThePoets #AlumniFL …

  • Kim Granata-Clark

This campus is beautiful. I live across the street so I go for walks around the campus. So many trees and walkways. There is a beach setup by the lake. It is easy to get lost in this campus but just keep walking.

  • J Matt813

The Nurse was extremely friendly as well as her supervisor. I was in and out quick with no wait time. I was treated very very well and my paperwork was processed rapidly. Thank you to the two ladies …

  • Mark Kesselring

University of South Florida is definitely one of the best schools in the country. Has an amazing student life and academically it’s a great school as well. The campus is amazing and I love studying there!

  • Russell Sioreti

We arrived the day before dorm check in for my daughter to inquire in various offices, to beat the rush. Every one was very helpful and pleasant. So far so good, excited for my daughter's future studies!!

  • AJ Dominick

Attended an event here and there were not signage put up and no staff for any clean ups. Students were assigned to help which is nice but while hosting an event there should be more professionalism.

  • ALICIA JOHNSON

Beautiful campus! I'm a photographer in the area and it's one of my favorite locations for picture. I'm sure you can get a great education here, too, but I just use it for picture purposes :)

  • John Palaschak

I cannot say how the University itself is but my wife is receiving treatment at the Moffit Cancer center and the staff are by far the best organized hospital team I have ever experienced.

Parks are closed on Thanksgiving day so took a tour at nearby USF. It’s a surprisingly beautiful campus, especially the tropical style landscaping and lovely birds.

  • Olivia Y.

The University of South Florida campus is really gorgeous. It's giving me a lot to think about. I'm reallly hoping Hurricane Irma doesn't do damage.
