After several years of extraordinary growth and expansion, we are proud to have opened our brand-new USF Health Morsani College of Medicine and Heart Institute facility in the Water Street district of downtown Tampa, housing world-class experiential learning spaces which are part of the first Microsoft Medical School Innovation Center and high-tech research facilities. With its proximity to Tampa General Hospital, our primary teaching hospital, and the USF Health Center for Advanced Medical Learning and Simulation (CAMLS), our students are equipped with the highest-quality resources to personalize their educational experience to reach their unique career goals.
The American Medical College Application Service® (AMCAS®)

The initial reason I chose USF
was because of the amazing people I met.
Every single person I encountered on my interview day was encouraging, made me feel comfortable and wanted to see me succeed.
