Facilities at University of San Francisco

A

Nice Campus

Campus is small and has beautiful views of San Francisco, and if you're up on Lone Mountain or any high building, you'll see some spectacular scenery! The facilities are good, but sometimes they might need more maintenance. If fewer toilets were automatic, I think the bathrooms would be cleaner and more welcoming because the automatic toilets don't always work and you know what happens. Besides that, everything is in great shape! The Koret Center is gorgeous, but the locker rooms could be cleaner. Gleeson Library is good, and campus activities are fun. It's a welcoming campus as far as my experience has shown me.

Local Atmosphere at University of San Francisco

A-

Great Area

I love the neighborhood surrounding the main campus. There seems to be lots of elderly people and it's safe and quiet as far as I know! There is always something to do in San Francisco, and you'll never get bored, even if you don't have money! If you're a student here, you should be able to explore the city with no problem (we have MUNI passes). Cultural events are alright, but I've only been to one and I felt strange because I didn't belong to the club and the people were from a foreign country that I am not familiar with. Haight-Ashbury is kind of sketchy but fun in my opinion, and it isn't too far from the school. But the campus and the area is generally safe I think. I don't know much about the local attitude toward students, but I've been to stores and I've seen USF students around the city outside of campus.

Transportation at University of San Francisco

A-

MUNI

Muni and BART serve their purpose! But beware of the weirdos on buses...some people are strange and you should keep to yourself.

Academics at University of San Francisco

A-

Good academics here

I really appreciate the courses I have taken during the past 2 semesters at USF. The professors know what they're talking about, and they are inspirational because they seem to know everything about their subjects! It's easy to contact professors because classes are small and you can email them anytime, and some professors respond at the most surprising times (like in the AM). I've had great experiences with professors here even though I'm the type of student to enter the classroom, sit through the whole time, and just leave asap. I'm still pleased with the professors because even though I'm hard to get to know as a student, they have such a good, positive attitude towards their work (every single professor I've had was that way). I love what I'm learning in classes, and although first semester it was difficult to register for courses (a couple of the classes I wanted were full), I was still able to find substitute courses that worked out just fine. Registering for fall courses was worry-free, even though I had expected a headache from it! :) Things worked out great, and I am so happy to be here.
