Student Opinions About Studying in Tampa

“When I first came here I was worried that I would have a difficult time finding work, but there’s surprisingly good availability for jobs in various sectors. There are many bars, restaurants, and parks for residents to enjoy, so I never feel stuck for things to do.”

“Tampa offers a wide variety of respectable higher education options, and I chose the University of South Florida for their Nursing programs. The locals are friendly and kind, but you can tell many of them live with a lot of stress due to being in such a touristic and business-driven area. I’ve lived in plenty of other cities and I would choose Tampa all over again.”

“Tampa is a fun place to live in, with many activities to do downtown, with live music venues everywhere and many festivals when the season comes. The cityscape is amazing, and the entertainment options are endless.”
