UT was a giant waste of my time. I was sucked in by the beautiful weather and amazingly groomed campus and claim of an outstanding business program. Upon arrival I noticed instantly how superficial and fake the student body was. For the most part, they are arrogant, repulsive, trust-fund babies riding around in $100,000 cars (seriously.) The combined IQ of the UT student body is probably equivalent to that of a parakeet's. One of my roommates actually refused to clean because she claimed she was unable to after letting us all know

my maid back home always took care of that stuff.

She only served one good purpose and that was carting me around in her BMW, since getting around Tampa without a car is nearly impossible.

The city itself is a bedraggled DUMP. I felt as if I was trapped on campus all the time since there was literally nothing to do in Tampa and certainly no way of getting there via foot. If you enjoy a nightlife forget about that too. UT is VERY STRICT about parties on campus and once you've been to once tacky night club, you've seen them all. Tampa also has a huge homeless population which makes the streets feel unsafe and you regularly see them strolling the campus.

Academically, UT has very little to offer. The programs and dull and not challenging. There isn't much available for internships and/or co-op. No professor of my particularly sticks out as being extraordinarily influential.

Needless to say I was elated when I was accepted to a much more respectable school and transferred, far far away.
