University of Central Florida Top Questions

I feel the best thing about the University of Central Florida is the unity amongst the students. There is a very large sence of pride in being a Knight, and the student body and the school does not take this lightly. We as Knights thrive on excellence and set a standard in the community that is second to none. We believe in one motto, "-and then some."

It is the second largest campus in the nation, UCF is extremely diverse. UCF is also a wet campus so we are allowed to drink on campus while we tailgate. UCF has many new buildings and we have our own cute shopping center by the UCF Arena.

First off, we have a 150,000 square foot recreation and wellness center that houses a climbing wall, multiple basketball courts, an indoor track, so on and so forth. Our homecoming celebration includes spirit splash, where once a year students are allowed access to get into the fountain outside Millican Hall. Memory Mall, the area surrounding the new UCF arena houses a multitude of restaurants and even a clothing store, and a full liquor bar. Overall the more the student body explores the campus the more they find to love about and find a bit odd or unique.

We are the SECOND largest school in the nation. We are also considered an up-and-coming university.

You can be your own person no matter what. UCF is a large school and diversity is a constant thing.

The open nature of the campus makes me feel free and in control of my own academic path, while within an arm's reach of the resources I need to accomplish my academic goals.

The overall experience you gain from going there. There is a lot of school spirit and everyone comes together. The classes become more challenging once you begin your classes for your major and my major had a clinic on campus. Also, spirit splash is a favorite of everyones!

We have the 2nd largest university in the Country.

Out of all the other colleges in Florida that I toured, UCF was the most welcoming. The students and faculty were so friendly and remain so today. One thing I liked the most was how the entire campus revolved at the Student Union. To me that said the student was the heart of campus.

UCF is going to start something that probably will be controversial soon in 2012 but it's great to help students and well being. Our basketball team has Michael Jordan's two sons on it which is really cool because we get to see Michael at the games. We also have a day called Spirit Splash where all the students get to run into the reflection pond and celebrate early for homecoming week. Our gym is stellar and the university is highly ranked!
