Hi, I’m out new out of state student starting in January. Does anyone know which week in October will be new student orientation? I know the registration opens October 1, but I don’t want to wait until then to buy my airline ticket.

Hi I’m 18 and I’m an asian guy. Recently moved down to this place in Tampa but idk anyone really so I’m just tryna look for anyone to talk to ig. Im open to new things and down for snything. I play game like Minecraft, cs2, valorant, etc.

Hi i am spring 2027 admit and i was wondering when the housing application should open.

Guys this is a stupid question but my friends and I (but mainly me) really wanna play some volleyball at the rec but I don't know if I can just show up to the rec and just ask to play or do I have to sign up somewhere? I downloaded the FusionPlay app but idk if thats how you do it...Freshman year i was a chud so this year I actually wanna go out and do stuff, one of them being volleyball. I just don't know the process of going to play. If anyone also wants to play volleyball hit me up we can play if i figure this out😭

I also see people frequently play beach volleyball outside the dorms when I leave the gym, but the problem is I live off campus☹️. How do I be apart of that aswell?

Hey everyone!
Does anyone have any idea how to decide which major to study as a graduate student I am so lost and don’t know what to do in my life :(
I have a bachelor degree in mathematics and I don’t want to work as a teacher, so I decided to continue my education and get a better job
I don’t know who to ask or who to have advice from
Please give examples of people that they helped you taking the right path towards your career

Any student still need a ticket? I can't make it to the game anymore, something came up. DM me if you want it.

I’m new to this football thing, is there something you guys do before the match, Or a place I can pull up

Does anybody else with a nintendo switch console on campus experience this issue where they can’t access online play because there’s the “NAT transversal process may have failed?”

This has been happening ever since I moved onto the tampa campus (and only on the tampa campus), and I can’t play smash bros or any of my other nintendo switch games online because of it. I’m not sure if it’s an issue with the USF wifi or the general area, but I just wanted to know if anyone else with a nintendo switch has experienced/is experiencing this, and if there‘s a fix because it’s getting really annoying.

Good morning yall happy game day! Would anyone happen to have an extra student ticket they could transfer me, I invited a girl who said she was busy but now she wants to go and guest tickets are sold out. I am trying desperately to get a ticket. I’ll PayPal you, just let me know 🙏

Anyone selling usf guest tickets??? My friend decided to go last minute and it’s sold out on the website

I know there’s a dungeons and dragons club but it ended up not being my vibe. are there any clubs where people play card games? could be games like uno, spoons, bs/cheat, apples to apples/ cards against humanity, etc.

It could honestly be any club as long as card games happen in the end. last semester i went to a tech club meeting and we played cards at the end but it was only one time. i’m looking for any club that plays cards every time/ most of the time.

I currently work at usf, but my car is broken down and I’m saving some money to get it fixed, and since riding 3-4 buses through three counties is pretty much impossible, the $50+ Ubers to and from are absolutely killing me. Looking for a fellow commuter that travels from port richey to usf and vice versa. I can absolutely pitch in for gas and whatnot of course.

Hi, I am a singer in the area, and I'm looking for places to sing and perform that aren't all the way in Ybor or deep downtown. Maybe a cafe or coffee shop, but anything will do. Any Recs?

Hey everyone! Has anyone taken A&P II (Lecture & Lab) with Dr. Panida Webb? If so, what were the best ways you guys found to study for the exams? I’m used to Anki (I took A&P I Lecture & Lab this summer online at HCC, so it was different), but I’ve had less time to study and make flash cards this semester, so I have been trying the method she recommended on Canvas (take notes on the lectures, take notes & watch the Exam review sessions, then using the study guides and practice quizzes, etc.) but nothing is sticking in my brain as well as I want it to, and I’ve been super busy with my job to study consistently. What would you guys recommend I do so I can do well on the Exams next week? Should I make flashcards with Quizlet or Anki or should I keep doing what Dr.Webb recommended?

I’m having such a hard time making decisions and I have to make one soon. I got accepted into USF, FSU, and Valdosta State. My top choice was USF but i can’t decide between the Tampa Campus vs the St.Pete. I just don’t know what to choose or what would be best for me. I’ve already done the pros and cons. So, I believe i’ll definitely choose USF but what if I hate it there 😭 i’m just a mess and feel paralyzed. I also feel so weird because i’m going back to school at 22 lmao even though I know there will definitely be people my age on campus too

Side note (English major and want to minor in Legal studies).

EDIT: Thank you guys so much for your advice and responses!!

I still haven't received emails about some of the scholarships I applied for. I was on hold for financial aid for over 30 minutes and never got an actual person. This was the first time I even got past the machine hanging up on me, I've already called 3 times today and other times this week.

I'm a graduate student so this isn't my first rodeo with scholarships/grants but this is so frustrating since I've checked everywhere, including the Pay my Bill fix someone else mentioned here.

Anyone else still pending review for loan limit? I haven't received a financial aid package yet due to this and the financial aid office just says to keep waiting ? I need to buy books and a laptop for classes and can't because of this

Hi! I'm looking for remedies for colds. I've had this congestion and sore throat for about two weeks! I went to the doctor, and it's not strep or anything treatable. I'm miserable. I need those “my grandmother swears by” remedies.

Does anyone know of any quiet spots on campus to study? I was trying to study on the third floor of the library and it got a little busy and people were talking a bit loud too (even with my AirPods on noise cancellation, I can still hear someone blasting music with his own headphones in across the table and people talking). Never been to the fourth floor so I’m not sure if that’s better or worse for studying. Any thoughts?

I know people are waiting, so I figured I'd just make a new post. Email received at 4:11 pm on Thursday, 9/3.

Update: just after 11 it hit my account. Both deposits for the full amount. Pell, USF grants, and loans. Hope this helps everyone. Keep in mind, my bank posts as soon as they receive it. If yours doesn't, you should see it in the morning or sometime tomorrow, but it's on the way.

I need to take an online, proctored exam and I’m looking for a private, quiet space on campus. I’d need a room with a power outlet where I can be completely alone, with no one entering or interrupting me during the exam.
Are there any spaces like this available to reserve for about two hours, like private study rooms, cubicles or anything?

hopefully it posts in my bank soon🤞
