USF in St. Petersburg (USFSP for short) is a school that thrives on community, diversity and nurturing its students. In terms of community, student leadership and individual clubs alike strive to host an event that brings students and faculty together in a fun and inclusive way. Additionally, events like Multi-Cultural Affair’s Wednesdays at the O and the movie nights hosted by the Asian American and Pacific Islander Association, are designed to bring attention to certain issues or groups present in our student community and to open up informative discussions surrounding them. Meanwhile, celebrating the diversity of its population and promoting inclusivity amongst its students is something that USFSP excels at. This is seen in the campus wide events that celebrate various culturally or communally important holidays, the staunch enforcement of policies that protect certain groups against discrimination on campus, and the encouraging of students to be involved in the multi-cultural issues impacting their local community. Finally, the university goes out of its way to ensure the personal and well-being of its students. Mainly, USFSP demonstrates this via a combination of providing services that are made to give students extra help with a tough subject and professors who go out of their way to help and accommodate students who are struggling inside and outside of the classroom, and mental health services that are made to assist students in maintaining mental wellness. Overall, USFSP is a wonderful college that aims to nurture its students, celebrate its diversity, and create a community.
I have a pretty good opinion on USFSP because it has an excellent campus location, many services such as career services and health and fitness services. The food is pretty average, and the dorms are dorms, but there is many areas to get food and living around the area.
I loved the USF- St. Petersburg campus as well as my professors! I appreciated the ease of registering for classes and the generous list of offerings each semester. I initially was not sure how long it would take me to complete my bachelor's degree as I was also working full time but thanks to the many offerings, I was able to find and take classes that complimented my work schedule and graduate with my bachelor's degree in just over a year and a half after deciding to return to school. I had a great experience here and highly recommend attending! USF St. Petersburg offers most majors and you truly can get a high-quality education at a very reasonable price!
The class sizes are perfect for me, never had a class over 50 students but usually have classes with 30 students. Almost all of my teachers are friendly, helpful and always willing to work with me outside of class and going above and beyond to help. The food is not very good and lacks variety but the atmosphere of the campus is super laid back, relaxed and diverse. And the view of the bay is amazing, nothing like it.

I spent my senior year in college as a full time student. I lived on campus and went to class with regular college students, while fulfilling high school class requirements with my major requirements. If I could go back to the day I started college, I would tell myself to not panic and take the first semester slow by watching and learning before jumping head first into it all. I would advice getting a roommate because they actually help you stay on track and you’re not so alone all the time. I would warn against dating because it’s a distraction. I would say to myself that different college professor teach different ways and to learn to take notes different for each class instead of trying to take notes the same and struggle. I would tell myself to get more organized, to study with a group and remember to eat more than once a day. Most importantly, I would advice to relax and breath, because it’s all very intimidating but not impossible. I would look at myself and say what I needed someone to say to me back then, “Never change who you are, just learn to adapt.”
My school is big and has a lot of resources, it is a state college St.petersburg college it is a great school.
One of the things that is unique about my school compared to other schools I considered is the fact that it is a smaller campus, being a satelite campus, which makes it much more intimate. The classes are smaller which makes for better learning opportunities, in my opinion. You are able to get to know other students as well as professors better due to the smaller class sizes. The campus itself is also beautiful and located in a great area, on the water, with a lot to do near campus; including museums, art galleries, restaurants, and more.
My classmates at the University of South Florida - St. Petersburg are currently around my age (18-20) and all deligently working on degrees in Business, but that is due to my classes all being pre-College of Business courses.
I wish I would have known that it would be so much like a small town, where everyone knows everyone, because then I would have pushed more to live on campus rather than commute to school.
It could use a paint job and some remodeling looks.
The number one thing that I brag about when talking about my school is the beautiful campus. It is right on the waterfront, with a georgeous view, and free water sports activities for students and guests. The campus itself is beautiful away from the waterfront as wel, including the beautiful fountain area and the architechture of the buildings. Being on campus just automatically puts you in a happy, positive mood, and you can see it in the students. Everyone on campus is so friendly and positive all the time.
