国产短视频features several special events and programs designed to welcome prospective students from underrepresented populations and special groups like AVID, TRiO, Take Stock in Children and more.

Group Visits

We welcome and encourage campus visits from groups like AVID, Take Stock in Children, TRIO, Upward Bound or high school and community-based organizations of 10 or more. We offer guided group tours Monday through Friday at 9 a.m., 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m., excluding holidays and campus closures.

Due to the large volume of requests we receive for group tours, we are not able to provide guided tours to elementary or middle schools. However, we encourage these groups to take a self-guided, video or virtual tour of campus.

All groups interested in scheduling a visit must register online at least 45 days prior to the requested visit date.

AVID Days at 国产短视频Graphic

AVID DAYS at USF

AVID is a national nonprofit that changes lives by helping schools shift to a more equitable, student-centered approach. The majority of AVID students come from lower socioeconomic backgrounds and underserved communities.

The goal of the AVID program is to close the opportunity gap these students face. The 国产短视频 is proud to coordinate with AVID-affiliated schools to support their mission by preparing students for college.

  • Adapting to university student life
  • Navigating the college admissions process
  • Preparing for college-level academics
  • Identifying college funding opportunities

During AVID Days, 国产短视频only welcomes high school AVID programs to participate. For more information on requirements, timing and registering, contact OutreachAccess@usf.edu.
