The University of West Florida Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Monica

Living closer to campus will save a lot of money in gas.

Katherine

Scholarships. I wish I knew how important they were--though you could say that about any school. I suppose the big thing that catches people off guard at UWF is the meal plan. Every freshman living in a dorm is required to buy a meal plan that cost over $500. 10 meals a week and $300 'Argo' bucks is the least you can purchase. No one uses it all, and they don't roll over to the next semester (when you have to buy it again). Also, the food leaves something to be desired.

Kaycee

I don't really know.

Aneshia

There is a big difference between high school and college, but if u stick to your study habits you will be fine. Get involved in everything possible because it increases your experience of college. Talk and meet with prospective students at your school's orientation. The people you see at orientation you will see at school.

Ami

I turely wish I would have had better time management before attenting a University. I also wish I would have known a little more about the real world.

Rigel

I wish I had known that the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship required two years of a foreign language to recieve benefits.

Dylan

The lack of people around campus on the weekends.

Ashley

I wish I had known that my financial aid will be no longer put into effect following this semester.

Tania

Nothing really, I expected everything I have experienced at this school.

Rhonda

Nothing comes to mind. The adjustment to UWF was very smooth.
