No placements are offered, you are all on your own, but the university sometimes helps with your job placements.

Quite good, met a lot of new people, good faculty, good course.

You have to take care of that yourself. No companies visit. You have to apply to at least 300-600 companies in order to land a job.

Overall a good experience and I got a good exposure too but living in San Francisco is expensive and I would rather choose a university in Texas or some other state and pay less when I have to work by myself for getting a job.

Most students who graduate are able to find an internship or job a couple of months after graduation. The median salary depends completely on where you are hired and the kind of position.

My experience has been decent at USF. I've been in several classes where I know the professor is well versed in the content, which makes the learning process a lot less daunting. Social groups are similar to high school culture, so it can be difficult to find new people who are welcoming into friend groups. The university offers lots of events and the sports games are filled with energy.

Universities help you get placed but I was not able to make full use of it due to covid. Each university associated with it has a team of career counseling as well as placing which helps you get prepared for every step in the process until you get placed.

I chose this program because of the exposure it was offering. Also, having the same set of people traveling with you all around the world strengthens your network. Moreover, i am an entrepreneur so wanted to have academic strong in that field.

The job opportunities at USF are renowned because of their mandate for students to have at least 3 internships before graduation. These placements are important towards a student and USF is beneficial in finding these types of internships for students. They make it important and put much more emphasis on having job experience than other universities.

I opted for USF because it had the direct-entry nursing program that I had been aiming for as well as being one of the tops in the nation. There are only a few direct-entry nursing programs in California so USF was a top choice for me. As a low-income student, I was able to apply to a majority of my colleges without fees and USF had already given me an application fee exemption due to my GPA and test scores. In the end, I chose USF from other schools like UC Santa Barbara and Azusa Pacific University because I felt that USF provided me the best of everything and provided me with enough financial assistance to be able to afford the education.

I wanted to get into a school in California so I applied for almost all the major universities in California. I have a mentor who helped me pay for all the application fees. Almost all of them accepted me. I choose USFCA because I have heard that employers pay a lot in silicon valley. I grew up in a middle-class family so I had a lot of access to education resources growing up. I was always at the top of my classes because I want my parents to be proud of me.

placement is great because the program has a great reputation in bay area.

It was a good program earlier. now it is not good. all good professors left
