University of Central Florida Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about University of Central Florida? Why?

Michael

The worst thing about my school is the parking situation. My school has 50000+ students and only ablout 10000 parking spots. This makes getting to class harder if you live off campus.

Gunio

I would have to stay parking can be a drag some times

Brandon

There are no thoughts in my mind of anything that makes my school horrible, it truly is great.

Matthew

Lack of support for working professionals that wish to return to school to obtain an education or augment their current education credentials

Jessica

The size of the classes is usually large which makes things kind of hard at times but if you meet with the professor one on one he/she is usually willing to work with you to help your understanding of the topic.

Joshua

The only things that is bad is getting use to the food which you can get tried of.

Amy

It is sometimes hard to find parking! You'll find it eventually, but you should get to class early! UCF is the biggest school in Florida & has abou 10 parking garages.... That makes it more fun, though!

Rikki

The worst thing about the University of Central Florida is the lack of parking. Typically, students must try to find parking approximately an hour before classes in order to arrive early or on time. Currently, new parking garages and parking lots are under construction in order to provide for the high demand. Though it may be a nightmare finding parking, it can also be seen as a way to encourage students to "go green" and take the school's shuttle or carpool.

The worst thing about UCF for me is that they are located in Orlando, FL and I live inPalm Bay, FL. They have a campus in Palm Bay; however, they do not offer the courses that I am interested in. At this point, I am taking online courses or courses via video streaming. There will be a time when I have to start going to Orlando for classes and I haven't figured out how to do that yet, since I work fulltime and I am a single parent raising two children. I will cross that bridge at that point.

Daryl

There are no things at my school that are bad in any way. My current College is determined to pass all students who are willing to learn and open their minds to new ideas and concepts.

Alexandra

The campus is huge, so it takes a while to walk to class.

Tiffany

It is a large univerity so it can be intimidating.

Stevie

The parking is horrible. You have to arive at least two hours before your class to find a parking spot. More parking spaces need to be added ASAP!

Serena

The worst thing at my school is parking. Other than that I think everything else is ok.

Jason

The only negative aspect that I am vocal about pertaining to my school is the oversized classes. Most of the classes are lecture based with an appropriate lab section required as well. The lecture classes tend to have upwards of 200 students with only one professor to teach. The labs are smaller with approxamitely 30 student taught by two or three undergraduate teaching assistants. While the labs are sufficient, I would rather spend more time with a professor that i directly ask questions to.

Lucas

I consider the number of students to be the worst thing about my school. Currently we are the third largest school in the country. No parking, no books, no computers, no quiet space, no place to sit, professors are overwhelmed, ect. All of these things get to be very frustrating.

Erin

The worst thing about UCF is the limited amount of housing that is offered to students who are not freshmen. As a freshman you can live at any of the six communities on campus and two communities off campus, but as a upperclassman there are only two housing options to live in. UCF is the fifth largest school in the country, so a lot of sophomores, juniors, and seniors are forced to live off campus and then pay transportation fees.

Stephanie

Honestly, I really do not have anything to say that is bad about my school. One thing that can be somewhat annoying is the process of trying to get into classes that may already be full. But this is standard procedure.

Samuel

The worst thing about the school is the location. Coming from a smaller town, going to school in a big city is quite a change. I'm not used to the amount of traffic in such such a large city but I am growing to appreciate it.

Mia

UCF is the fastest growing university in Florida. Currently there are more than 50,000 students that attend UCF. Because of this, getting required classes can prove to be difficult and at times it's hard to find good parking spaces. Some students find it difficult to obtain a Bachelor's degree in four years.
