University of North Florida Top Questions

What's unique about your campus?

Ersnt

The thing that I consider to be the best about my school is how helpful and nice everyone is to each other, It does not matter the race or the person's culture. Everyone likes to get to know everyone and does not offend others.

Garielle

The best thing about my school is definitely the location. We are on a nature preserve and once you are on campus you do not see or hear anything but what is school related. Once you come off campus you are 15 minutes from the beach and down town and 5 minutes to the closest shopping mall and where we can get groceries and other things off campus.

Katherine

The on-campus activities.

Shawn

It's tight-knit and self-contained.

Caitlin

The best thing about my school is that is very big and well known, but it still has small aspect feel to it. I feel that I can actually make connections with my professors and have a voice in my school.

Samantha

The best thing about my school is all the activies that go on. There is also something to do on campus weather it be something from a movie night, to a concert, or even laser tag. There is much to do to keep you occupied and having a good time!

Ashley

The school supports academics and promotes the arts above all else.

Jennifer

UNF has enough on-campus activities to keep a commuter student happy. Most classrooms are within walking distance from UNF parking garages. An annual premium parking permit is available to students. For those without a premium permit, a shuttle service is included in the cost of tuition and is available to all current UNF students. Transfer students who have at least completed their freshmen year are not required to live on campus. The Boathouse is a thriving restaurant to be at (especially during) lunchtime. UNF already has Starbucks. Fun fact: Jamba Juice is coming to UNF's Fitness Center!

Alec

The best thing about my school is that everyone that goes here acts as if we are part of our own community with in Jacskonville and that are campus is on a nature preserve.

Megan

The best thing about my University is the size of the classrooms. This being said having a smaller ratio of students per professors help the student learn better and concentrate. Also the students feel the need to come to class since the Professor actucally knows their name. While at huge Universities such as the University of Florida there class room size is huge. This gives students no hands on.

Amanda

Thus far, the greatest thing about my school has been how much it has genuinuely prepared me to teach in my field. I am an education major and have worked with other education majors from other colleges and my preparedness and those of my colleagues is top notch.

Aaron

While it is a university, the classrooms are smaller and more manageable. Kinda like a community college

Alyssa

The best thing about my school is the small classes and nice campus.

Abigail

I honestly love everything about the Univeristy of North Florida, but the best thing about is, I think, is the preparation the counselors give you. Everyone whom I have met who graduated from there already had his or her career set and a job lined up because of the counselors' cooperation. There is nothing more important than getting what you came for, and while attending a University, the purpose is to find a career, and the University of North Florida makes sure you have one.

Kristyn

I live right across the street from it so I can take the shuttle.

Sutherland

I would consider the endless possibilities to be the greatest thing at UNF. The staff and faculty are all exceedingly nice and I actually believe that they care about each individual student. With a degree from this college I will have unlocked endless doors that now I simply need to walk through in order to succeed. UNF offers an unfathomable amount of classes in the English major for which I am enthralled in, so It is possible for me to attend class everyday with an actual desire to do well, all because my school made it possible.

hannah

The school spirit at UNF is incredible. This is especially impressive because we lack a football team. Most college students are really into their school because of the activities surrounding nationally known football teams, but at UNF students are just as into basketball and baseball, as well as what Greeklife has to offer.

Nicole

The best thing about UNF has to be the environment. The small class sizes make it a wonderful learning environment while the campus itself is beautiful and clean making it a great place to live.

Carly

I consider the campus life to be the best thing about my school. The housing facilities are amazing, and the faculty are more than willing to help you out and have one on one time with students. Professors are very understanding and they try to personalize the class for you. They want to put a face with a name and make a student's time at UNF the best experience possible.

Taylor

UNF offers so many different opportunities for so many people. I would say the the best thing about UNF is the opportunity to become involved on campus and within the community. The clubs and organizations offer a great way to gain experience in fields you might be interested in as a career. The career center also offers several resources for finding internships, scholarships and even job opportunities.
