The best thing about the University of Central Florida is that it gives you somewhere to succeed. No matter where you are in your life, UCF is a place where you can grow as a person. The faculty doesn't care if you're a freshman or a fifty year old man coming back for a bachelors, they strive to help you grow and expand your learning. UCF is constantly expanding not only the minds of students, but also the campus itself. The campus continues to find innovative ways to advance while most colleges are fine just staying the same.

The best thing about UCF is the myriad of ways for students to get involved. There are a wide variety of clubs and organizations for things like movies and hobbies, to things that deal with your major.

If I to describe the University of Central Florida in one word I would describe it has "opportunity". There are endless amounts of opportunity here at UCF, I believe UCF does a wonderful job allowing students to make the most of their education by allowing students to choose and excel in whatever they want. That is why I believe the opportunities here at the University of Central Florida are the best aspect about this school.

The best thing about my school is that there is so much to do and always someone new to meet. I feel that I have an endless amount of possiblities. I can join clubs, sports, fraternities/soroities, have a safe place to hang out with friends and many opportunities for jobs. The surrounding area is well built up and easily accessible with public transportation.

Ithink that the best thing about the University of Central Florda is the campus. Everything you need to be successful is at your fingetips. I love how easy it is to find your way from place to place and the amount of resources availible. There is always something going on during the week and that makes going to school much more exciting. I'm so happy I am a Knight.

The campus life is very active. There are plenty of student organizations to get involved. There should be at least one organization that you will feel a sense of belonging, if you join. If there is not an organization that you do not think you belong to, you can always start your own. Also, we have a lot of resources provided by the school in order for us to succeed.

That there is a place for everyone to belong. There are so many activities to join that no matter what you like to do, you can find 20 other people that like to do it too. I came from out of state and it was very easy to make friends. Being a big school was not intimidating nor does it feel as big as it really is.

I think one of the best things about the University of Central Florida is the opportunity that it provides to the students willing to do the work that it requires to earn their degree. This University has so much opportunity for involvment and helps each student to build on their character. I have seen students come in as Freshman children, and graduate into responsible, charasmatic, and compassionate adults. I am proud to be a Knight and finally finishing a degree I started back in 1988. UCF has made it possible and extremely rewarding at the same time.
Jessica
The best thing about my school is the amount of opportunity available to all types of students. Although there are over 50,000 students I believe there is something available for everyone to be able to find their own niche and sense of belonging. I actually finding myself having to say no to some opportunities because countless opportunities are thrust in my path, instead of me having to go out of my way to seek them. I have been able to find the perfect balance of on campus involvement and applicable work experience to really get a well rounded experience.

The best thing about the University of Central Florida is that it is it's own community. UCF is nothing like Orlando and the surrounding area. It's great to be able to be on campus and not even realize that you are still in Orlando. This makes the campus more personable and better to be around. I feel like we are a family or community cut off from the rest of the city.
