Many of us have prejudices about what a school is like. I had form my opinion about University of Florida based on what other had said. But seeing the school for myself, I can truly say that I love it! The University of Florida should have been my first choice school but because of other people opinion it wasn?t. I wished I knew how great the school is in academics, research, campus size, resources, sports, and financial aid before I came because I would have had a better outlook on my college years.
