University of St Francis Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Claire

How to sleep at night and study in the morning.

Medelia

Before I came to this school I wish I would have known more about others schools. I wish I would have known the campus better too.

Tracy

I wish I had known how easy this process would be, as I had been putting off enrolling for years.

Victoria

I wish I would have known how to use the Blackboard system. Even though I took the mandatory computer course on Microsoft Office and didn't really teach us about Blackboard, I still have no idea how to send out an email. I also wish I would have known about joining track since I lived off campus & didn't know about activities & athletics. Finally, I wish I would have known how warm and welcoming the students and staff are. The school still handles a lot of issues on a case by case basis, making it a very personal environment.

Alicja

I wish I had known right away that it will take me one extra year to graduate before I came to this school. I would take more classes at community college that I could transfer here and pay less money.

Krista

There is nothing negative that I wish I had known. Only thing I wished I knew was my personal limits with juggling school and personal life.

MARILEE

BEFORE COMING TO THIS SCHOOL, I WISH I WOULD HAVE KNOWN THE TRUE MEANING OF PATIENCE. AS SOON AS I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS ALL OVER THE PLACE, MOVING FROM CITY TO CITY TRYING TO LIVE "LIFE". I WAS SO EAGER TO "GROW UP" AND FINISH COLLEGE, THAT UNFORTUNATELY I DIDN'T ENJOY MY FIRST TWO YEARS OF COLLEGE AND ALL TOGETHER I QUIT SCHOOL BECAUSE I FELT THAT I WAS NOT ACCOMPLISHING ANYTHING AT THE PACE I WAS GOING. FORTUNATELY FOR ME, THE PEOPLE AT ST. FRANCIS MADE ME TAKE A STEP BACK AND ENJOY COLLEGE LIFE.

Traci

How expensive the education is.

Sarah

I wish that I would have known how difficult it was to find parking. And to always keep in mind that everyone is there to help if needed. The staff at USF are all very approachable and they all want you to succeed. If you have a question or something on your mind, you should ask. They all want to help.

kristin

I can't remember anything that I would have known before I started this school.
