Philanthropy
The 猫咪视频app set new fundraising records for the fourth straight year in the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2025, receiving over $184 million in philanthropic support from more than 59,700 donors 鈥� both all-time highs for the 猫咪视频app.
Student Success
College 猫咪视频apps spent the summer at the 猫咪视频app鈥檚 Bellini College of Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity and Computing as part of the inaugural USF Bridge Coalition Program, a new initiative designed to expand research opportunities for undergraduate 猫咪视频apps from emerging research institutions.
USF鈥檚 historic 猫咪视频app to join the Association of American Universities has taken what many in Tampa Bay have once considered a 鈥渂est-kept secret鈥� to an unprecedented new level. Being an AAU member is a tremendous milestone for USF as it formalizes USF's position as a leading research 猫咪视频app. USF is the first public 猫咪视频app in Florida to be invited to join the AAU in nearly 40 years and is now one of only two institutions from the State University System of Florida to serve as an AAU member.
