The University of Tampa

By Dark Sith

Tampa is a large city located on the west coast of Florida. It is one of the three big cities that make up the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater metropolis, and has the largest port in Florida. Tampa is a popular vacation spot because of its many tourist attractions and beautiful beaches.

The combination of all those factors have attracted many residents to relocate to Tampa. Over a hundred thousand people are expected to move in to Tampa in the next several years, and you may be one of them. Another reason for Tampa's growth in population is the healthy amount of good job opportunities available there, not to mention the great sights and sounds that define the city.

One of the things that people look for in a city when they are about to move is the schools. Tampa also has its share of universities, colleges, high schools, and other schools within its borders. One of these is the University of Tampa.

The University of Tampa is a moderately-sized private university. It stands on a hundred acres of land in the middle of Downtown Tampa, and caters to 5,500 students from all over the world. Half of its undergraduates are citizens of Florida, and a large portion of the students live in the university\'s dormitory.

Another reason why students flock the University of Tampa is the myriad of courses it offers. Students from both graduate and undergraduate levels can choose from over a hundred different career options in the university. Its Master of Business Administration is simply one of the best in Florida.

Students achieve academic excellence because the university targets individual growth, by involving them in real world situations and community service programs.

The cost of studying at the University of Tampa is quite high, at more than $28,000 per year, but many of its students are given financial assistance from the university itself.
