The location is the best thing about the University of Central Florida. It's close enough to Downtown Orlando, the attractions, and the beach to really enjoy them but far enough so that UCF is still it's own little community.

Our school is the biggest school in Florida. It offers three hundred and fifty clubs and organizations students can participate in. I feel the teachers are very intelligent and our school is very diverse in population. It offers all kinds of fun concert and athletic events.

The best thing about UCF is the great support offered by the faculty and staff. Personally, the faculty at the Palm Bay campus has inspired me to reach for the best, and to continue to fulfill my academic dreams. I am very proud to be a student at UCF!

The best thing about my school is the diversity of the people and number of people who go here. You can always find a group of friends to hang out with and take some of the stress of college off with them. With all the different kinds of people there are also numerous kinds of activities going on and you can learn a lot about a culture by getting to know a few of those people.

Being a senior now, I really can't say that there just one best thing about my school. Overall UCF is really an awesome, well-rounded university. Just knowing how much UCF has developed since it first was opened in 1963 entitled, Florida Technological University is amazing. The campus is absolutely beautiful. Professors were (in my own gained experience) great educators. UCF's web portal used for registering for classes, financial aid, webcourses, etc. for students is very effective and convenient for students. Students and faculty are very friendly and very accepting of all the diverse cultures and ethnicities.

My major: Legal Studies. It is unique from Pre-Law and Political Science in that only a handful of colleges offer it in the entire United States. My dream (which I am living) is going to law school and helping change the legislature in this country to give people more freedoms. Land of the free and home of the brave. That is my mission. Specifically, the right to love whomever one chooses. I am very passionate about helping others. Furthermore, if law school does not happen immediately, I can easily become a paralegal, thanks to my degree in Legal Studies.
Tyler
For me UCF was the right choice because it is local to my home town and an inexpensive school compared to other universities in Florida.
Amanda
The best thing about UCF is how welcoming it is to the incoming freshman. Everyone (admisistration and other students) are more than egar to help out; you never feel inferior asking for help.
Devin
The best thing about going to the University of Central Florida is the fact that they make distance learning at a four year college easy for students/ I am taking classes in Cocoa rather than having to drive to Orlando a few times a week because Cocoa is much closer to me.
Todd
One word instantly comes to mind when considering the best thing about UCF: Community. Everywhere I look while wandering the campus, I can actually see what it means to be a community. Students, faculty, or even just friends of family all come together for any number of shared purposes. These common purposes range from political views to break dancing, from break dancing to Italian culture, and everything in between. Becoming a part of the UCF community has made leaving home for the first time feel like I never really left at all.
