We will travel! Students who wish to meet in person at an alternative on-campus location (USFSM, USF Health, etc.) should contact us at 813-974-0835 or ombuds@usf.edu to make those arrangements.

Phone appointments can also be arranged by contacting our office.

All students on every USF campus have access to ombuds services.
