    Tips for prospective students

    Yes its a bit pricey but its a private school so now matter where you are from you pay the same as Florida residents. the counselors are more then helpful if you have any questions i would email them they will for sure clear up any questions they can. the school also is very good about giving grants. Make sure if you think you need help with tuition you apply for the aid

    Great for these types of students

    this school would be great for students who really want to focus on their school. the student teacher ratios are very low compared to other universities so be ready to be accommodated when you need a little extra help.

    Am learning a lot

    Since the class sizes are so small, the professors are able to focus more on the individual students and therefore make sure that you do learn and pass the class.

    Am enjoying being here

    The environment is great and the location is very nice. The whole campus makes you feel like you're at home.

    Bang for the buck

    It is a very expensive school but you will get your money's worth.

    Tips for prospective students

    Take a tour of the college and definitely attend the open house days. Talk to some of the students and professors and make sure you feel like UT is the college for you. If you're going to apply make sure you also apply for their scholarships and grants. That will help you a lot and you will probably receive at least one. If you need any help or have any questions don't be afraid to talk to a counselor or advisor. They are more than happy to help you anytime and are quick to respond.

    Great for these types of students

    Students who are determined and hard-working looking for a great education. If you like small classes and being able to work with your professors this is the college for you. The sports teams are also very good and UT offers a lot of clubs and interactive events.

    Am learning a lot

    I'm actually a transfer student. So I've experienced an out of state college before. I'm now living at home and decided to give UT a chance. The class sizes vary but are usually very small so the teachers know you by name. They are very flexible with office hours and trying to find you help. They aren't here to make sure you get an A, they're there to make sure you understand all of the concepts. I'd rather get a B and understand the material than get an A and understand nothing.

    Am enjoying being here

    The campus has an old-world feel that's very unique to downtown Tampa. The minarets are beautiful and walking anywhere on campus doesn't take long at all. And the other students are very friendly and helpful.

    Bang for the buck

    The University of Tampa is one of the most expensive schools I applied for. I could have gone to a much cheaper school. But with everything I'm learning and how much I enjoy college, I'd say it's worth it. The only problem is trying to get all the financial aid I can get.

    Tips for prospective students

    Don't ever wait until the last minute with anything. If something needs to get done, like financial aid or a hold on your account. Just get it done as soon as you can. If not, you'll be stuck waiting in line for hours with the other students who procrastinated.

    Great for these types of students

    Definitely a great Business school. The business programs are amazing and you learn so much. Also look into the study abroad programs!

    Am learning a lot

    The University of Tampa is a great learning environment. The small class sizes and a no teaching assistants policy, help in getting the most out of every class. It is easier to learn when you aren't one out of a class of 400, and when only professors with PhD's are actually doing the teaching.

    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being here in the heart of Tampa Bay. Close to movie theaters, museums, sports arenas, and much more. The campus is beautiful, and the dorms are spacious.

    Bang for the buck

    I believe I am getting the best education possible. University of Tampa is a private school with a lot of class.

    Tips for prospective students

    Apply here early. Tour the campus, get the full picture. You will love what you see.

    Great for these types of students

    University of Tampa is especially great for students who want the feel of a large university within a much smaller environment. We have so much here on campus all withing walking distance, you don't have to ride a bike to get from building to building.
    It's also a great school if you live in Florida as I do, you can live on campus and have the independence, but still not be that far away in case you need something from home. Another plus, no expenses to travel home during breaks.

    Am learning a lot

    There are plenty of interesting classes, but some of them just repeat the same information as the lower core classes. The professors have some interesting side facts and tangents that do make learning a little better.

    Am enjoying being here

    Unless you're a social butterfly, it's hard to adapt to Tampa. The students aren't all that friendly and quite a few professors don't talk to the freshmen. The campus is pretty stunning, but looks aren't everything.

    Bang for the buck

    I feel like I've wasted a lot of scholarships on a school that lies about staff to student ratios. Most of the professors can't bother to learn your name and half of the classrooms could use some serious work as does the food service.

    Tips for prospective students

    Spend most of your time when you can by the river and the library.
    Avoid the cafeteria from 2-4 pm.
    Be ready to find a nice quiet spot to concentrate on work away from the main buildings- people stare and get frustrated with you if you stay in one spot for over an hour.
    Bring extra nasal decongestants. Most of the classrooms in Plant Hall (the main building) reek of mold and always carry a jacket.
    Always check Rate My Professor before signing up for classes.

    Great for these types of students

    Social butterflies adapt incredibly well. If you're a wallflower that wants a large group of friends, you're better off going to USF or UCF.

    ut is a diverse school, but yet it is easy to fit in with your fellow classmates. it provides basically any academic program you would ever wish to major in. the college is set in beautiful downtown tampa.

    Tips for prospective students

    scholarships, scholarships, and what? yes, scholarships! apply early and thoroughly.

    Academic Rigor

    it seems to have a very rigorous business and nursing programs. as well as great programs in art and entertainment.

    Food and Dining

    they have several different food options including chickfila!

    What to do for fun

    your in the middle of downtown tampa! there is plenty to do! there are also many activities to do on campus.

    Am learning a lot

    It depends on the teacher, but almost all of my teachers are very adequate at teaching the materials that I need to learn in the class. They also do not believe in just using a textbook, but actually make their classes do interactive assignments where students must go out in the campus or out into the city.

    Am enjoying being here

    The school has a great atmosphere that I love. Most of the people are very relaxed people. The school work and the money problems and deadlines do stress students out to an extreme.

    Bang for the buck

    University of Tampa is a private school, so thus more expensive. I believe the school is over expensive and the students do get placed into hard situations because the school demands students to pay on very little notice.

    Tips for prospective students

    Always make sure to have a couple of hundred dollars in your bank account for whatever the school might demand of you out of the blue. Take your studies well and do not go partying every Thursday.

    Great for these types of students

    This school is great for students who both love a social and academic life. Not the greatest school for people who love athletics.

    I'm sure you have heard this before, but this University only hires professors that truly care about the student's progress. Because of this, I have learned more than I ever have. Every professor takes the time to get to know each individual student (due to the small class sizes!) which encourages active engagement in the classroom.

    Am enjoying being here

    I have enjoyed every moment of being at the University of Tampa. There are over 150 clubs you can join to stay active on campus, something for everyone!

    Bang for the buck

    The university is quite a pretty penny, but worth every cent of it! I wouldn't wish to spend my money any other way. The residence halls to the classrooms, the tuition money is spent well!

    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved as much as possible! Every extra connection you have makes a difference while you are at UT!

    Great for these types of students

    I think the University of Tampa is great for anybody! The classes are small, so make sure you are willing to be known by your professors. This school is made to fit more than one type of student; I think anyone who is a hard worker is a perfect fit for UT.

    the university of tampa has a small but beautiful and convenient campus located in the heart of tampa. the small class sizes and wide variety of activities and clubs available to students make it very easy to get to know other students. in addition to great academic programs, ut also creates wonderful events for students to relax and enjoy everything the university has to offer.

    Tips for prospective students

    1)don't be afraid to check out the many clubs ut has to offer. there is an organization fair held at the beginning of each semester which allows you to talk to members firsthand.
    2)take advantage of the saunder's writing center, or other academic aid programs. they are all free to use, and are easy to set up appointments with!
    3)student productions, team chaos, the residence association, and other groups are constantly throwing fun events. take advantage of them. they are free, fun and a great way to meet new people.

    Academic Rigor

    the university of tampa offers a wide variety of honors courses for students who would like a more academically challenging environment. courses do typically require study time, and a lot of effort, but with the academic aid programs ut has to offer, no student should be struggling to much!

    Dorm Life

    i personally love the dorms here. the dormitories on campus are very nice, there is a cleaning staff that cleans the bathrooms, and dorms are centrally located on campus.the ras (resident advisers) are usually very friendly, and they throw many fun events throughout each semester. games, music, free food and freebies -- what is there not to like?

    Food and Dining

    the university offers a wide variety of dining plans which are very flexible based on your needs. in addition, the cafeteria has some pretty great food in a wide variety of areas (salad bar, a grill, international section, sandwiches, vegetarian, and classics to name a few). spartan club also offers la havana (which has delicious cuban food), a chick-fil-a, fresh creations (a really great salad and wrap place which makes it the way you want it!), an einstein's bagels, and a grill. the other food court is located in stadium center which has a green grocery with a sushi bar, a pandini's, panache (which serves classy lunches!), a barbecue joint, a dairy queen/orange julius, a coffee shop, and a really great burrito place. the university of tampa offers such a wide variety of options, it is really easy to find something that will satisfy any cravings. plus, meal plans come with spartan dollars, which are flexible dollars which can be used to purchase ice cream, and other foods!

    What to do for fun

    student production is constantly having free movie nights, exam jams (massive parties in vaughn during exam week), and other events. the peace organization is a great resource to get involved and volunteer in the community. the residence life association has different events going on in the evening and on many weekends. the pool is a common hangout spot -- even in the winter! there are also club teams for people who like to do sports, in addition to tons of other clubs!

    Bang for the buck

    the university of tampa provides a lot of activities, counseling resources, a great clinic, good food, and wonderful residence halls. the professors are all highly professional and trained, and are willing to talk to students outside of class. the small class sizes really make the cost of ut worth it because you are able to discuss issues with your professors and you are more than just a face in the crowd to them. nearly two years after taking an honors english course, my professor still waves to me if we cross on campus, and asks how i am doing.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    the university of tampa has two annual volunteer events, that students may participate in. in to the streets in the fall, and the martin luther king day of service in the spring. both are a lot of fun, let you meet new students, and let you explore and help the local community.

    Great for these types of students

    students who enjoy smaller class sizes because of the increased potential for academic success. students who enjoy being involved in volunteer work and clubs. students who are very social and wish to meet students from all over the world.

    Clubs and Activities

    sports clubs, debate team, extreme elite, quidditch, scuba club, greek life, student productions, free exercise courses are the gym... if you can name it ut probably has a club for it!

    Campus Safety

    every resident hall is very secure as you need a spartan id card activated for that specific residence hall to gain access. in addition, at night there are security guards posted at the entry desk in residence halls. security officers are constantly patrolling campus. laser team is also available to drive students across campus in the evenings. this is particularly valuable resource if you are studying late in the library or were hanging out in a friends dorm. it is a free and safe way to get across campus!

    Love it! There is always a lot to do on and around campus. The campus is gorgeous, and the beach is just a short 30 minute drive away.

    Bang for the buck

    It is pretty expensive, but remember--it is a private school. There are a lot of financial aid opportunities including scholarships and grants.

    Tips for prospective students

    It's important to love the college you pick because you will go there for four years. Visit Tampa to see if it is the right place for you.

    Great for these types of students

    a private college that focuses on the students. they are not sports centered, but have a lacrosse team. historical buildings decorate the school.

    Tips for prospective students

    if you are interested in the campus, i would advise you to visit the school in the spring. also visit the professors that coincide with your major, so that you can an idea of who you would see for the next 4 years. also explore the surrounding area, so that you would see what it is like off-campus.

    Academic Rigor

    the academics is what they focus on, so it is rigorous! the trick is to always stay ahead. before your classes start get the books and review. as the classes continue make sure to always stay ahead. in that way you'll get an a or b in the classes, but still have a social life.

    Dorm Life

    the university of tampa has a great dorm life. that is how you get to know other people on campus. most students leave their doors open so that they can get to know their neighbors and it works out pretty well. now be aware that because it is a college there is still drinking going on in some dorms. just stay aware of it, because if your dorm advisers sees that happening and you are underage, they call security and that's when fines and arrests happen.

    Food and Dining

    in all honesty, after a couple of months you will get sick of the food. so make sure that you get a food plan that does not tie you to the school. since it is downtown tampa you will always find somewhere different to eat. so make sure you have some extra money on the side so that when you get sick of campus food you can eat elsewhere.

    What to do for fun

    2 words: downtown tampa. there really is not a limit on what you can do for fun. there is the nightlife scene, which is really popular with some of the students. since i'm not really a party and drink kind of gal, i'm not the one that can tell you all the hot spots on that. i know that close by are beaches, ybor city, international mall. fun things that i've done was bike or walk around the city. there's a shooting range nearby. canoeing, kayaking, and fishing are some of the things you can do on the river. there's just so much, i'd take you all 4 years to do it all!

    Bang for the buck

    downtown!!! and ybor city!!!!!

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    gasparilla!!!!!!!!

    Great for these types of students

    all types of students. ut offers alot of scholarships for the students also.

    Clubs and Activities

    we are not lacking in clubs and activites at all. just go to ut.edu and just see all that we offer

    Greek Life

    we do have a greek life. the only draw back is that since we are a small campus the students in a greek life do not stay in the same building. we don't have a specific place for the greek's to have their own dorm.

    Campus Safety

    ut is really tight on security and making sure that students are safe. they send us e-mails about things that have happened, just so that we can be aware of what's going on.

    the university of tampa is a great liberal arts school, with professors that will help you find your path. it offers great resources for its students in all aspects of study. ut is constantly growing and you get to meet people from all over the world, which helps students network with people from different places.

    Tips for prospective students

    students should get involved in as much as they can from the beginning. this helps build their resume and make them marketable for when they start searching for a career. starting now helps build references and future employers.

    Academic Rigor

    the university of tampa makes sure that students builds their knowledge for the future. some of the course load can be very overwhelming, but the staff is there to make sure that you get through it.

    Dorm Life

    due to the overflow of students i have had the luxury of spending my time here at the university of tampa in hotels. although the shuttle schedule can be annoying to go through i believe it is worth it for the queen sized beds.

    Food and Dining

    there are three places on campus that the university of tampa offers for its students. at times it can get old and boring, but that is why there is the cafeteria where options constantly change.

    What to do for fun

    since i am at one of the hotels that the university has rented out i am grateful to be in downtown tampa. i love just walking out of the lobby into the bustle of the tampa life. i really enjoy walking down the streets and seeing where it leads me.

    Am learning a lot

    It's a private school so I don't have a single class with more than 30 people in it and all my teachers actually know my name. It makes learning so much easier because when you need help you professor is there and knows you instead of seeing you as just another nameless faceless student. There is also so many classes to take so you can pretty much learn anything you want and they'll probably offer a tutor for it too.

    Am enjoying being here

    I have a great time on campus. I live in one of the smallest dorms, it only has two floors and maybe 100 people, so i know everyone on my floor. We constantly go out and hangout together. It's never a dull moment. The school also has tons of programs and clubs to get involved in. We even have a club that shows movies almost every Friday!

    Bang for the buck

    Yes it is pricey but the school offers more grants and scholarships than any other school I applied to. When it came down to it I ended up paying about the same price for a better more personal education on a smaller campus.

    Tips for prospective students

    Be prepared classes here aren't easy but you'll actually learn A LOT! Make sure you are working really hard in high school too because being a private college not many kids get in. Get good grades and be involved.

    Great for these types of students

    This university is great for kids who like a more one on one learning experience and like to get to know a variety of different people from a variety of different places, we have over 1000 international students! If you don't wanna take a twenty minute walk to your classes, get to know a lot of people, and have your teacher know who you are The University of Tampa is right for you!

    Academic Rigor

    Class size average is about 20 students so the professor will know your name which is lovely. You won't be just a face in the crowd.

    Will enjoy being here

    The campus is beautiful and small...it's perfect for me!

    Bang for the buck

    It's really expensive but so worth it.

    Great for these types of students

    Anyone who loves the tropical Florida weather. Also anyone who is really serious about their studies.

    I LOVE this school, professor's are helpful, there's lots to do, beautiful campus, and the school can connect you to many different professions for all!

    Tips for prospective students

    It is a bit of a party school but it is also a good school that is working hard on getting itself back on top!

    Academic Rigor

    So far I have been challenged in a good way in all my classes, and all my professors have been helpful!

    Dorm Life

    The dorms are pretty good except really for Mckay. But, the school keeps accepting way more students than they have room for so some students are put in a hotel off campus but there is a shuttle to get to and from campus. A new dorm is underway and should be up in 2013.

    Food and Dining

    The caf has its good and bad days, I am sometimes surprised how good the food can be. There is also stadium were you can do meal eexchanges for many great choices; burritos, pasta, sushi, et.

    What to do for fun

    There's lots for night life, also there is Busch Gardens, Lowry Park Zoo, and the aquarium. Beaches are about 30 minutes away and Orlando is a little over and hour away. There is also two malls close by!

    Bang for the buck

    The school is a little expensive, and the school claims they are poor. Sometimes the money is spent on stupid stuff that is unneeded, but I believe what I am getting out of te school is well worth it!

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Plant park (Party in the park which is the spring concert), Dance Happening, Relay for Life, Orientation trip to Busch Gardens

    UT has an amazing, relaxing campus. They are rated number one in the nation for graduating students. Your not just a number like other major universities you are a person that they will know.

    Tips for prospective students

    Stay focus and make sure you are prepared because this is not high school.

    Dorm Life

    I'm a commuter but from what I hear dorm life is pretty cool.

    Food and Dining

    They have a wide range of selections from Mexican food, pasta, BBQ, Cuban, and much more. I'm sure you would not be disappointed.

    What to do for fun

    Campus is located in the heart of Tampa (downtown) there are plenty of places to party like Channel side, Hyde Park local bars, the beach, Bush Gardens theme park and Island of Adventure. You will not be bore!

    University of Tampa has exceeded my expectations. It is a great school with very small class sizes, the campus is beautiful, and the weather is not bad either. Would highly recommend.

    Academic Rigor

    Some professors are harder than others but you get much more attention and assistance here.

    Food and Dining

    The food isn't terrible, but it's not absolutely phenomenal either.

    What to do for fun

    SoHo bar district, Ybor, beach.
