This is very much a commuter school.  However, I'm 27 and married so I don't need much of a campus social life.  That being said, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do on or around campus.  There is no neighborhood, no local bars, no cute little bookstores or coffee shops, nothing.  There's a shopping mall, some chain restaurants, a flea market down the road, a Walgreen's...you get the picture.  I wouldn't recommend coming here without a car.  Also, the parking situation is miserable unless you take classes at 8am or after 3pm.  There is no reliable public transportation system in Tampa either.  The city itself is OK, it's very normal.  You aren't too far from beaches and the weather is nice.  Do get used to driving everywhere though.  My actual classes have all been adequate.  I'm not in nursing courses until next month, and am completing prereqs now.  USF is very technology happy though, so get used to online courses and components to live courses.  I'm getting exactly what I pay for at USF.  I chose the only school that I could afford in Tampa that offered a BSN when I moved here, and the nursing program is supposed to be fantastic.  Oh, and unlike some other reviewers, I haven't noticed any racial tension here, but I don't go out of my way to pay attention to race...
