The cohort group was a bunch 30 something who were very social...as long as you were one of the "cool kids." Disappointing experience, tuition is WAY over priced. Terrible, and I can't stress enough, terrible job assistance, networking for jobs, or internships. USF is more interested in promoting its image than helping soon to be graduates with job prospects. Go else where with more opportunities, internships, job prospects, and alumni connections. Read about other schools hire rate after graduation.... Read More

The University of San Francisco not only provided me with the tools necessary to excel in the public sector but also taught me the importance of values in the workplace.

The sense of community and access to professors is one of a kind, the program is life changing!

At the University of San Francisco the take away affect is a positive feeling because you know the quality education and training comes with values and principles of honesty and integrity in yourself and others. My experiences of USF are from its MPA Online program and the con to this is the lack of live interaction with peers and instructors. I would suggest having at least one live webcam discussion that is optional, given the many reasons people choose online programs.

Pros: Great for working professionals because this is a part-time program and classes are on Saturdays. Faculty are both practitioners and academics. Cohort model style learning and seminar size. Cons: Cohort members may not have many years of work experience b/c they can be younger/recent graduates. Balancing work / school / personal life is a challenge but not impossible.
