Coming from the U.S Army, I decided to enroll into college immediately. When you think of the military, most people see a more strict and disciplined approach to life. With that type of affect on my personality, UCF totally blew me out of the water because they presented such an amazing, fun, welcoming, interesting, and unique lifestyle to enjoy! I had no issues with any professors, courses, or documentation that I encountered throughout my time there. Even better, I was really encouraged by my counselor to enjoy clubs and amenities that UCF had to offer. I was never let down by the abundance of shops and recreational opportunities there were at UCF. Ultimately, this helped me appreciate my undergraduate degree to no ends, and I really wouldn't search for any other college to have gone to.
I like the new classes. They're called REAL format, which stands for Relevant Engaged Active Learning. Basically we only go to class 5 times a semester while learning the chapters from home and doing the work on our own time. I live over an hour from school so it's really beneficial for me. Plus I love being able to do the work on my own time. It includes watching the professors videos and reading the chapters. When we meet in class we work in groups which I really enjoy. Before this format was implemented, I rarely met any of my classmates. Now we work together! We can converse of the class, what we're learning, or other topics about UCF.
The only thing I'm disappointed about with UCF is the GEB classes. They make us pay for 4 semesters of basically the same class. I can see how it's useful for one semester, but 4? Feels like a money grabber.

I am finishing my second year at the University of Central Florida, and undoubtedly, I am very content with my experience thus far. UCF is a diverse campus with tens of thousands of students, thereby providing us with an amazing opportunity to connect. Personally, I have met some incredible friends through attending this university and experienced some unforgettable memories. Generally, the professors I have had over my two years at UCF have been very helpful in my journey to become more knowledgeable; the knowledge I've acquired through my classes at UCF has expanded my horizons and has given me plenty of hope for my future endeavors. The campus is absolutely beautiful and I feel very safe there; it is easy to navigate, as I adapted to the campus within my first two weeks! I dearly appreciate the inclusivity of UCF and how free people feel to express themselves; I believe our campus is one of the all-time best. I'll always remember UCF!
