<strong>Student</strong>s Living <strong>of</strong>f campus<br />
As a USF student who does not live in <strong>University</strong>operated<br />
housing, adjusting to college life may present<br />
you with a different set <strong>of</strong> challenges. There are many<br />
ways you can find a sense <strong>of</strong> belonging at USF. For<br />
example, you could join a club or a study group; go to<br />
campus events; meet classmates for meals on campus;<br />
get an on-campus job; find a lounge where you<br />
can relax and do homework between classes; and<br />
participate in the Koret Health and Recreation<br />
Center programs. Know that you are not alone:<br />
nationwide, four out <strong>of</strong> five college students commute<br />
to campus. With a little extra effort, you can get the<br />
full USF experience while living <strong>of</strong>f campus.<br />
