University of Central Florida Top Questions

I chose University of Central Florida because it was located in a busy city where I knew there would be something in the future for me. Many other schools do not have as many job opportunities as this one. Although this school was located in Orlando, it had it's own area in a "college" town. Perfect for students.

Ever year my school celebrates homecoming with Spirit Splash, a school wide pep rally, in and surrounding the Reflection Pond, where in the marching band, cheer leaders, and Starlet Knight come together and perform for the students.

UCF is a mixed environment and we don't allienate any one race or cultur, everyone has a place here and they can always find something on campus for them. Our meal options on campus vary from cuban, italian, asian, american, fast food, etc. They offer all types of possibilities within your reach.

It the larger of the state schools in Florida, And it is located in one of the biggest cities in the state as well making it a great environment for such a big school

The school is diverse and has great programs in every academic field. There is an amazing education program, science program as well as every other program. There is deinitely a little something for everyone at this school. We are not isolated to the point where there is no life outside of the school but at the same time if you reside on campus, everything is at your finger tips and you don't need to go anywhere else.

My school is unique compared to other schools because of the beautiful campus. There are many spots on campus where one could spend much time at. This is a good thing because it gives students a variety of enjoyable places to either study or even just meet up with friends.

I like the diversity with race and gender it doesn't feel like all the same students attend UCF. I have visited plenty other schools and the students looked liked POD people to me,

Best campus and nicest surrounding area.

very welcoming and diverse. A good learning environment. Beautiful campus. Always something to do on campus or in the surrounding area.

our school doesn't look like a traditional college, its more contemporary. its such a great location because you have the bars near school, downtown orlando, and then the theme parks like universal and disney. theres always something to do and so much going on even on campus.

THE VARIETY OF THINGS TO DO

It is in Florida! The weather is great. The community is great. The people are great. It's an amazing location with plenty to do in the surrounding area.

I believe our school has a very diverse group of people. There is always something to do, both on and off campus.

The area is a very nice one to live in in florida. It is close enough to the beach and the city. Also the campus felt more interested in the students with better first year experience programs than any other college I visited. The school is also relatively new and there is always new things being added that make the campus feel up to date. I also like that last year we decided to be as green as possible and have a campus that is actively involved inthe enviromental issues of today.

The design/layout of the school.

Again, the campus. You can pretty much walk to everything and it gives you a community feel. I always saw people i knew walking around campus, even though its a big school

The University of Central Florida is unique in many ways. The choice to study here was easy, as they offer competitive scholarships and immaculant research oppurtunities. The location is nice, only forty minutes to the beach and twenty minutes to the city. Many of the teachers here are very well established, one of them was just eleceted to Barack Obama's transition team. Overall, I felt that UCF offered everything I wanted in a college; competitive academics, affordability, and oppurtunity.

I think one of the most unique thing about UCF is it doesn't fit in the generic college mold perfectly. I mean its sports driven since the new stadium and arena have been built but also at the same time there is likely to be a free indie concert in front of the union. It has the amenities of a big university but with that down to earth bohemian style.

UCF is growing at a phenomenal rate that surpasses the other major university's in the state of Florida.

UCF has great internship porgrams. At the time I was applying I wanted to work at NASA and they are right by NASA so that made me want to go this school. Its in a great part of Florida, right in the middle. It was also far enough away from home to gain that college experience but close enough to be able to see family still and family is very important to me.
