I absolutely loved my experience at UCF! The warm weather and beautiful surroundings made it an ideal place for me to learn and grow. Most of my classes were engaging and taught by talented teachers who genuinely cared about the success of their students. One thing I did want, though, was a better opportunity for new students to make friends. Although there were clubs and organizations, it would be interesting to see inclusive events and social events specifically designed to foster relationships among incoming students. However, my overall impression of UCF remains overwhelmingly positive, and I am grateful for the memories and knowledge I gained during my visit.
I am an early admittance student slated to begin my journey as a college freshman during my senior year of high school at UCF starting in August of 2023. My experience has been incredibly positive so far beginning with my initial tour of the campus, through the application and acceptance process and lastly checking off my "to do" checklist in order to be ready for orientation. Every campus employee that I have encountered has been welcoming, encouraging and informative which has alleviated much of the pressure of being a first time college student! I highly recommend this institution of higher education!
Since enrolling at the University of Central Florida there have been many ups and downs. Some things I really enjoyed about the campus was just its mass size. Not only in square miles but also in student population UCF is one of the biggest universities in the United States. With UCF having over 68,000 students it is very easy to network with peers. With that being said, having so many students does make it difficult for UCF to provide all the services students may need in a timely manner. For example, during registration period advisors are very limited and could be scheduled out for 3 weeks. I wish that during busy period that more staff were available to help students in need. UCF does offer walk-in advising which I believe was a great way to combat that issue. Overall, the University of Central is a great university and anybody interested should definitely take a visit!
