University of Central Florida Top Questions

While I can't complain very much about UCF, the worst thing about the school would probably be the number of students attending. Especially if you've never lived in a very urban area, you could feel like you're a nobody in a school with 56,000 students. I do enjoy being surrounded with thousands of my peers, however I do see how one could feel lost in a school with so many people, and I have some friends who feel this way.

Parking. My #1 problem on campus is finding a parking place. With the expense of $40+ for the semester permit I expected to have a place to park for class. This problem is usually only days; nights are fine because students are allowed to parking in staff lots then. I honestly cannot think of anything else I don't like about UCF. Specific to COLLEGE OF HEALTH AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS for social work degree are very few undergraduate courses online, which is more difficult to manage.

I got used to going to class two days a week. I am not happy about the fact that most of my science classes here are only available on the three-day schedule. Some scheduling conflicts forces me to go to school five days a week.

There aren't a lot of clubs offered towards more creative outlets, like creative writing, reading, watching movies. The school is majorly focused on engineering and medical fields. I was shocked when I found out that the campus doesn't even have a book club, and the film club it sponsors is mainly for directors, producers, and actors. If you're a creative person, like me, it was hard to get involved on campus and therefore meet new people (which is a major thing for incoming freshmen).

The worst thing about my school is that there aren't a lot of minorities there. Sometimes it gets really hard to try to make friends when everyone around you doesn't look like you. Of course you'd expect some differences, but there's no blend. It's like I feel alone sometimes. I know others feel that same way. We only take up 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of 60,000 people. That's not a lot at all. I wish I could just see more black faces.

I think the worst thing i've found about my school is just the occasional problems with all the technology that is surrounding the school. There isn't reall enything major that I don't like about the school.

The worst thing about University of Central Florida is the amount of construction that constantly takes place. I believe this is a big problem for the university because as they complete construction on future classrooms, the problem of overcrowded classrooms, lack of parking, and lack of student housing emerges. Though upper-level classes tend to be smaller, general education classes remain some of the largest, peaking at 300 students per classroom.

No University is perfect. I would honestly say that parking it my ultimate problem at UCF. Because we are the third largest University in the nation, that explains why parking is so limited. In order to get to class on time, you must leave at least an hour before class starts in order to find a parking spot. At times, students can be late to class. With the constant construction of new buildings being built, hopefully more parking garages are in the process of being developed as well.

i dont like the fact that the food is so expensive. recieving the education is expensive already, so i dont see why they have the food so expensive that some of the students can't afford to buy lunch.

The worst thing at the University of Central Florida would be the lack of parking spaces for the students paying for their decals. Seems as though the amount of decals sold from the Parking Services do not balance out the number of parking spaces provided for the students.
