USF St. Pete Welcomed Largest Summer Class!

While the summer months are thought by many to be a downtime for universities, USF St. Petersburg welcomed around 770 students during its 2024 summer semester, a new record for the campus.  Half of these first-time-in-college students lived on campus or commuted, while the other half began their higher education experience remotely. This combination of an incoming class learning in person and from a distance provided both a challenge and an opportunity for the campus. “Regardless of how a new student begins their education here, we want to ensure they get a feel for what it’s like being a student in St. Petersburg and a sense of our community,” said Aurélio Valente, regional assistant vice chancellor for undergraduate studies.  

Kudos to the team at USF that made this possible!  Click here to read more.
