    Sophomore : I love my time at Brandeis! As a Stem student, there are so many opportunities for me to take. All of the professors have been great in their ability to explain difficult concepts and work directly with students. The introductory chemistry class was a bit difficult, but being able to work through it was a great achievement.
    In terms of housing, I couldn't have been happier. Brandeis has a policy where all incoming freshman must go random for roommates. Despite this being nerve-wracking, I was put with two amazing people that I am glad to have as friends. I was also able to make lots of friends within my building since orientation was partially organized with people from my building.
    Many people complain about the food, but I believe the food is significantly better than what people say. My mother is a phenomenal cook so I have a good frame of reference.
    Overall, Brandeis is a great school that I am excited to attend.

    Senior : I began attending USF in June of 2012, just two weeks after I graduated high school. I started at the St. Petersburg campus. I absolutely loved it! They did not offer my intended major, so I transferred to the Tampa campus and earned my BA in Interdisciplinary Social Sciences with focuses in Communication Disorders and Psychology. I couldn't stay away after that, two years later I re-enrolled at the Sarasota Manatee campus to earn another degree; BS in Communication Sciences and Disorders. USF to me means, you stay forever! The faculty and students make this university an outstanding one. Go Bulls!
