School Spirit

<p>Hey i already sent my deposit in but this website is making me kind of nervous. Is this that bad of a school? I got into 11 other schools most of which rank higher but I absolutely loved the USF when I saw it, however, there seems to be a huge lack of school spirit or maybe since I am in Florida I am just out of touch (since college confidential is one of my greater sources of incite). Can anyone help me with this? Maybe someone from the west coast? I am having major anxiety issues.</p>

<p>yeah I would also like to know, I'm in FL too- I take it that you've visited already so is everyone there mainly from the west coast ? How are the dorms ?</p>

<p>kekeo008 - The campus is beautiful. We traveled to SF on BART, getting off at Powell Street. We walked up to Union Square for some shopping while watching the cable cars clang past. We jumped on a MUNI bus - not sure exactly which one to get on (an outwardly grumpy but very helpful bus driver made a special stop just for us) and arrived at the campus ten minutes later. Golden Gate Park and Haight Ashbury are within walking distance - it is a perfect location. Some of the dorms have views of SF and the campus, and some do not. Hiking up the steps to the Lone Mountain campus is rewarded by unbelievable views in all directions and beautiful architechture that is just what you would imagine it should be. The students we met were wonderful - they all seem convinced that they WILL change the world. It appears to be an international and diverse student body. Hope this helps!</p>

<p>I was wondering the same thing. I just found out I was accepted to University of San Francisco. It's great to hear about the students like that. I recently read that the CEO of Intel got his BA in Economics at USF and then went on to the Haas School of Business. I was thinking of taking a very similar path, so I am very excited to hear that I was accepted. (I love business!)</p>

<p>Congratulations to everyone who was accepted. :)</p>

<p>Previously, the only thing I had heard from a student about this school was on this board (which sure isn't popular among USF folk) and was written by a girl who didn't like the school. However, I must say that the comments that the girl made made her seem like a very bad person. (Obsessed with inappropriate things, not focused on school at all. She seemed angry about something. So I'm ignoring what she said.)</p>
