I went to FSU for my undergraduate degree, so I am using them as a comparison to USF. On that note, USF has horrible, unfriendly and unkind staff in just about every department! Financial Aid, the Registrar's Office, the Housing office (they were the worst) the Cashier's office, and even the Ombudsman's office. If being helped is important to you, reconsider this University, or you might be looking at unannounced late fees preventing you from accessing your grades.

This is true. I did my undergrad and Masters there. Due to the sheer number of students they have to deal with (USF claims to have 50,000 students) you are just a number when you go to any of the above mentioned offices.
But things are a better when you deal with smaller departments etc.. For example, I was in the Computer Science and Engineering Department and people there were helpful.

Hi! I went to FSU as undergrad as well and got accepted into USF's public health. What else did you not like about the school? At FSU I had unfriendly staff in my department too and felt discouraged after graduation. How was the public health program? Which concentration did you do?
