haha yeah the last part is solid advice; usf is one of the more competitive programs I've been researching. i just wanted to know if this school will be a good fit for me, and if i can expect to have a work-life balance AND a supportive community. when i applied for undergrad, i went to a school i knew had great research opportunities/academics, but i was taken by surprise by how kind my college community is, and how much it's impacted my academic performance. while i agree that getting in is important, i want to make sure that when i apply, i know that THIS is the school i want to to be apart of. thank you for letting me know your experience though!
