    If I could give no stars, I would. What at first seemed like a helpful admission counselor, quickly…read morebecame a terribly rude and misleading admissions counselor (Josh Jones). I was told multiple times by multiple people that I would be able to start classes at the beginning of the summer semester (May 8th) and was led to believe that classes would be in-person. I am a veteran using the GI Bill so I made sure to state that I needed residential classes to receive my full housing allowance from the VA. Despite a month of emails and texts back and forth, it was not until the day that classes were supposed to start, and after I had again reached out to check on my admission and registration, that I was rudely informed by my admissions counselor that advising had "just told" him that I had been accepted but new students are not allowed to start classes until the second term of the summer semester (June 26th)! Not only was I told this suddenly made up rule that is in no way stated anywhere on any correspondence from them or even on their website, but I was then also told that even if I was allowed to start today as I had been led to believe, but that summer classes are all online! Again! Absolutely nothing had ever been mentioned about this and there is no evidence of this on any correspondence or on their page. Not only was this all seemingly very disingenuous and purposefully misleading, but I was also informed by my academic/professional and character references that the surveys they were required to fill out asked extremely invasive, intimate and alarming details for a seemingly Christian school to ask. As a current student at Liberty university and someone who works with investigating and recovery for sex trafficking and exploitation, these questions and the required dress code for the school, are egregious at best. No school should ask the professional/academic or character references of it's potential student if they believe that the student has any inappropriate sexual relationships, or if the student smokes or drinks, and they should definitely not be required to give further details! Why is this school asking teachers/counselors/supervisors about the sexual relationships of their students/subordinates?! No school should make note that it is located near the ocean and thus require that it's students not wear anything that could "potentially cling to the body if wet", even if they are at the beach. All in all this school does not give the presence of one being guided by faith in God and rather gives the essence of something nefarious. I would strongly advise all to proceed with caution.

    This school is the bomb.com fam! Great staff and teachers, especially the admissions team. They…read moretruly do inspired work. Like wow! The school has a great family atmosphere and the connections I've made here are valuable and far reaching. Two thumbs wayyy up (:

    I am an alumni at Saint Leo University and I will say so much has changed for the better. It's good…read moreto see a university that truly appreciate and invest in their students education. One of the reasons I love going to Leo was because it felt like a family atmosphere and there was always so much to do. The campus is beautiful and continuing to grow. The campus is taken care of upkeep is very well the ground screwed as a great job of making sure pride is taken. The buildings are very clean. There's so many options for food and an amazing and new pool. You're looking for a school right outside of the Tampa Bay area that stands true on its values this is where you want to be.

    I spent four years here. I wish I had transferred while I had the chance. Other students and I had…read morea lot of issues with professors being genuinely mean and being lazy. Once I showed up to my 8:30 am class for my professor to play a YouTube video of another professor teaching the subject. The dining hall food was often bland, overcooked or undercooked and gave us food poisoning on more than one occasion. Something I find unacceptable for how expensive the meal plans are. The dorms smelled damp and often had issues with mold. My first week of school I got a respiratory infection from being in the dorm. We also had issues with the heating turning on the n the winter time and despite maintenance telling us it was fixed it wasn't. I did however like the events that went on. Our spring and fall festivals were nice. Getting to go to Universal studios for $20 was the highlight of my year. We could watch movies on the lawn, get airbrushed shirts, have food trucks visit and more. It was also a pretty famous to look at. But it doesn't make up for the other stuff. I wish I had gone to a more cost effective school. I started before COVID and in recent years the school has gotten itself into financial hardships. We even had a change of Deans because of egregious spending. The tuition hikes haven't made campus life any better it just hurts my pockets.

    If you take student safety as a priority it's a NO…read more Nice looking school with affordable tuition but what you save in money is not worth the trouble. My daughter's safety was in jeopardy by an unruly roommate that had no respect for herself let alone the other roommates. My daughter told her RA and the Residence Office that guys were coming into the room at all hours of the night "expecting to get some". In addition, this roommate would lash out both verbally and physically (on video no less and yes the school is aware) and the school did NOTHING about it. When my daughter asked to switch rooms, they made her go through hell and back and guilted her for not problem solving herself. They upset her so badly that she was visibly upset and her other roommate had to come to the office to get her to calm her down. She finished out the semester and transferred out. Not only did I file a Title IX sexual harassment report that they buried but they also put a sanction on her so that she couldn't transfer easily to another dorming college. This school is not free. I paid tuition for my daughter to be harassed by her roommate and then her school. Shame on you UTampa. No wonder the retention rate is so awful. For those parents that worry about their children away at school, this is not the school for your kid.
