University of Central Florida Top Questions

Describe the students at University of Central Florida.

Stephanie

They are very friendly and open to others from differet backgrounds other than their own.

Khalil

When I think of my 55,000 school mates I think of diversity. Not just culturally, but more so intellectually. UCF is quite the personality melting pot!

Amber

Very busy, often taking on multiple things at once, but mostly friendly.

Cindy

For the most part, UCF is fairly liberal, however it is still central FL. For those of you not familiar with the area, Orlando (where UCF is) is a fairly liberal minded city, but just outside is the country. Drive 45 min southwest to Polk county and people actually have country accents and confederate flags (actually, there is a confederate flag just east of UCF on SR 50 hanging from a bridge. Within the confines of Orlando and just beyond it are two separate worlds.

Marilyn

My classmates are absolutely spontaneous.

Ashley

Students at UCF are typically progressive-minded, with a fair amount of concern for academics, but also a laid back demeanor.

Elizabeth

Everyone here is so diverse that you can find any type of group to hang out with. The list of clubs and organizations is semi-intimidating, something I think is good because that means anyone could find their niche. Overall the students are pretty laid back and like to go with the flow. Sure everyone focuses on schoolwork and such but everyone also makes sure to have a good time. There is one specific free speech area on campus that can get a bit edgy and pokes at sensitive issues but it can easily be avoided by diverting routes or simply ignoring them.

With over 55,000 students that enrolled in the Fall of 2011, this would take a while :)

The students who go to my school are awesome! You get to know the people your major pretty well. It is only my first semster and I have found a couple of peers who will help me throughout the rest of my degree. At the school each major has their own suite. The suites are a nice place to meet up with other peers.

The students at my school are diverse. theirs different fashion styles at my school and that correlates with the individuals you hang around with the most. The hip hop side of the school have their own essential fashion sense different from people who might like rock or country music. the good part is that no one really judges you and every one feels comfortable with whatever they wear.
