Counselor Education, M.A. - Batch of 2024

It is a friendly and warm campus.
Tips: USF offers several opportunities and exposure throughout one's life in college which I have found very valuable. The faculty and professors are open-minded and helpful when needed and if there is something that needs to be improved, it is the limited class sizes as it affects registration for classes. Public transportation is very convenient and affordable. Students should explore as much as they can.

It has been a positive and unique experience.
Tips: If you are travelling from India, then try to get here at least a week in advance so you can give yourself time to recover and explore the vicinity as well. Plan your class schedule and priorities in advance and in case you feel like you need help, there are various campus organisations and services here. The faculty is very helpful, friendly and understanding so feel free to reach out to them in case of any queries.
