University Of Central Florida - [UCF], Florida, Orlando - Accommodation

I lived on campus my first year and it was very nice and convenient. I do prefer living in an off campus apartment, though. It makes me feel like more of an adult, rather than someone who funnels money to the college

Only two hours away from home, has a good CSD program. I had to pay a little fee to apply here, but it wasn't a lot! I also applied USF and gained admission, but ultimately chose UCF! I am very happy with my decision, especially after being here for a year and a half! The CSD program has welcomed me and I feel confident in my ability to thrive here.

I live on campus and I like it because it is really convenient and I have many resources on campus. Plus, commuters have the struggle of finding parking before classes. I like my Resident Assistant and plan on being one next year.

It wasn't too far from home but far enough and was not nearly expensive as a private school. The application fee was not bad and it was my top choice school so I was committed to getting in. I applied to five colleges and got into four. I was a straight-A student in high school but my SAT score was 1160.

I lived in an off-campus uni affiliated apartment complex. So I was able to access free shuttle service from and to the campus, it took around 20 minutes in non-traffic times. It was around 40 minutes walking distance to the uni, 10 minutes from a car. I also used the campus buffet which had some offers for teaching assistants. There was a Walgreen by our apartment complex. To get into a Walmart or Aldi I had to use some transportation method. The reason why I choose off-campus mainly because it's cheaper than on campus. And during holidays and special situations like hurricanes, on-campus residents have to move out.

I completed a bachelor's degree(mathematics Hons) with a 3.93/4 GPA from the University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka in 2015. After that, I wanted to get into higher studies because I wanted to secure an academic position in a university. I applied to a few other USA universities including (UCF) and got the admission, tuition scholarship and teaching assistant position from almost all of them. I have heard about those universities through some senior Sri Lankan students who were studying there. The first reason to choose UCF is that I love hot weather and hate snow, so Florida is my best choice. Then as an institution, UCF is the largest University in the USA with great facilities for international students. Communication is really efficient. As an international student, I had to send many emails back and forth and got replies very fast. Since I got quick replies it was easy to deal with the visa process in advance. Also compared to other USA institutions application fee is cheaper.

I chose the University of Central Florida mostly out of convenience. The school has a direct connect program that made it easy to transfer my Valencia credits to the state school. I also live in the area.

My major is only available at this school. This school was in my state, so in-state tuition was available to me. I notice my school has ROTC, which I've always wanted to join. This school has a great football team.

I lived off campus with my parents. It was easier for me to drive to class than pay nearly $1000 each month for rent. Additionally, dorms and student apartments fill up quickly so there is rarely any open spots on campus that cause students to look for off-campus housing.

I chose this college because it is one of the biggest colleges in the nation. I believe that due to the size, there are more opportunities that lie within the classrooms and there is more diversity among the students.

Definitely off campus. Always find something where you feel happy and comfortable. there are many places that offer shuttles and rides to school! Make friends and get to know people with cars.

Because of it's amazing, modern, technologically advanced. It's also a pretty decent cost price for credits and for the experience you get. The services and free things this school offers are abundant. They love their students.

I opted for UCF because of the proximity to my house. I can commute every day so I don't have to pay for housing. I also have seen and heard great things about the university's business program. I also wanted to love at home but attend a university, not a community college.

They offered me a small scholarship, which allowed me to move on campus and stay somewhat close to home while studying my major of choice (aerospace engineering), which was not available at most other universities I looked at.

I always got a suite or apartment style. So I was lucky and had a private bedroom and at most shared a bathroom with one person. On campus is of course very very especially when you're a freshman or first year.

In-state tuition. Not super far from home but far enough where I won't have to visit my parents every weekend or even every month. They're decently accredited in all majors and have a huge student body.
