I like UCF because it has a great location! UCF is located near many businesses and job opportunities, as well as, many fun activities such as mini golfing and bowling. Additionally, UCF is only about 30 or more minutes from night clubs, theme parks, and other tourist attractions. UCF is also unique because it is very diverse. As a psychology major, I find observing the diverse cultures on campus and learning more about them to be very interesting. UCF also has many clubs and extracurricular activities offered for different cultures and interests. There is something for everyone at UCF!

I'm sorry to say that I have not compared other schools, so I no t feel I am not able to make a objective comparison.

As aforementioned, the University of Central Floirda is the second-largest university in the United States, with an enrollment of almost 60,000 students, which creates a more diverse, unique atmosphere compared to other smaller universities/colleges. Additionally, the University of Central Florida is located in Orlando, a central city in Florida, which is a relatively close transit to almost all other major cities in Florida (i.e. Downtown Orlando - 20 mins., Cocoa Beach - 1 hr., Gainesville, 2 hrs., Jacksonville - 2 hrs., Miami - 3 hrs., Tallahassee. 3 hrs.), making it easy to travel for educational and/or career-related opportunities.

The University of Central Florida has recently been expanding and improving all their programs with the funds they are recieving. Also, they offer small programs, such as Athletic Traning, that most schools do not.

Something that is unique about my school is the size. As the second biggest school in the nation, you are bound to meet many different people of different backgrounds and you can really get to know those people and learn of their culture. Because of the size of the school, everything is made to cater to that size, we aren't short of professors, classes, or resources.

The University of Central Florida(UCF) truly stands for opportunity. In the two semesters that I've attended, I've been presented with various opportunities that seemed to come out of nowhere. These opportunities included those involving jobs, networking, and furthering my education. UCF opens doors that other universities ae not able to open. Because of the school's size, there are more things that the university is able to offer its students. Smaller colleges with fewer students may not be able to offer the same things. I am extremely grateful to UCF for giving me the opportunities it has.
Alexandra
There is an amazing atmosphere to be part of!

I only toured two other schools besides the University of Central Florida. Compareing University Of Central Florida to the other schools I got the chance to look at I believe what is unique about my school how everything you probably ever could think of haveing is located right on the school campus in walkin distance. Not many schools or at least the ones I was able to see offered that to students and faculty.

I never really considered any other school. I applied to two schools. I applied to FAU so I could get from under my parents watchful eye and to UCF because of its staggering academic charm and fresh face. I was accepted to both on scholarship and even though FAU offered me more financially, I still chose UCF.

UCF has made it an amazing campus. The classroom buildings, dorms, student facilities and the football stadium are all within walking distance, and you can take a university shuttle (the Black & Gold Line) to reach your destination a quicker and you can stay cool.
UCF's Interns can take advantage of opportunities in Central Florida Research Park, which is right next door to the campus and is home to research in areas such as science, engineering, as well as health related fields. UCF has 350 different clubs and organizations and Spirit Splash pep rally, it is one of a kind.

It offers the bachelor's degree I want and other schools dont.

The University of Central Florida is very unique for many reasons. It is the second largest university in the United States and has a very diverse student body. The UCF creed that is embodied by the students everyday is Integrity, Scholarship, Community, Creativity, and Excellence. These core values influence our daily decisions and allow us to enrich our community. UCF offers a wide variety of college courses and majors that students can choose from. My college is also unique because it offers a lot of on-campus student employment and volunteer opportunities through over 100 student organizations/clubs.

We have an event called spirt splash were the entire campus gets to enjoy a day of fun in the sun, while getting to splash around in the a fountain we call the reflecting pond. It takes place once a year the greatest thing ever.
Amanda
The school I am attending has the Rosen College of Hospitality Management. I selected UCF because of this major. It is one of the best in the country and also in the world. You are able to learn and experience things at Rosen that you are not able to at different universities with hospitality management as a major. I am enjoying every moment.
Oriana
The harmonious feeling among the school is wonderful. Everyone is respectful and friendly. I've never seen a negative situation occur on campus. It's a great school.
