Awesome school for research.
As an international student, I was initially overwhelmed by adapting to a new environment, but I quickly made some friends and now I am enjoying my experience every day. The University of South Florida is a tier one research university. So, I cannot wait to do undergraduate research here.

Knowlegable faculty and helpful administration
The School of Library and Information Science really went out of their way to help me complete my degree when I had to move from Florida to Virginia. Great faculty!

Excellent School for Business
The University of South Florida continues to grow to be one of the top schools in the southeast. I had a great experience during my time at the university. The College of Business continues to move up the national rankings, and the MBA program is in the top 40 programs in the country. I am proud to be a Bull, and feel my education there helped me become a successful business professional.
