University of Central Florida Top Questions

The worst thing I would consider about my university is the cost of attending because it can be quite pricey.

The worst thing about my school is phone system. Honestly I like the professors so far and the campus is gorgeous, but trying to get someone on the phone is quite a job in itself. Or, once I finally find the department I'm trying to reach, they might tell me that the one person who can help me won't be back until after the weekend.

There isn't a lot that's wrong with UCF, but one big problem is parking. It seems like every time I try to park here, it's a battle with other students and visitors to find a parking spot. I often feel like a stalker, following people to their car to get the spot they are about to vacate. So, one big thing that I don't like about my school is the lack of parking spots.

I don't think I have one, all schools have there ups and downs.

Many of the events are held during the day, so people who have to work or have mostly daytime classes miss a lot of the events.

Advisors are not helpful and are hard to meet with and discuss your concerns.

The school is overwhelming when you first enter. There are so many people and the campus is so big that it makes you worried. The class sizes for the general classes are big and can make you nervous. I came from a small school and going to such a big campus made me wonder if I was ever going to survive, but here I am a few years later and still going strong.

Unfortunately, UCF is more focused on their income than the students themselves. This is evident in that many students are unable to complete their degrees in time because of unavailability of classes, the quality of professors, and the opportunities the school makes available.

The worst thing about my school is the distance from one end of campus to the next. I literally have to plan 15-20 minutes to walk to my classes from my on campus apartment.

The worst thing I would consider my school having would be the parking situation. There are not even close to enough parking spaces for students, faculty and visitors on campus. They are starting to build more garages and giving us temporary parking lots but I feel like something else needs to be done as well. Also, the fact that if you aren't in the right spot you get towed or half of the garages do not allow overnight parking or you have to move for football game days causes many problems for myself and my peers.

Very large classes and finding parking spots is very difficult.

The worst thing about UCF is the parking because, even though one has to pay for an expensive decal, there is often nowhere convenient to park, which can cause undue stress and being late to class. I feel that if I buy an expensive decal, there should be a space for me somewhere on campus that takes less than 15 minutes to find at the height of the day.

I cannot find anything wrong with my school because it is simply awesome.

The worst thing about my university is that it is very hard to find parking. One day, I spent approximately one hour trying to find a parking spot. UCF has several 5 level parking garages as well. Not one parking was available anywhere near where I needed to be. There were several times when I saw other cars pulling into spaces that had not been searching as long as I. I felt so unlucky, however when I got into my classroom I found one other classmate had been looking for just as long as I had.

Since the school is so large, it can be tough to make new friends. That's why it is so important to go to lots of events hosted by various clubs. It really allows you to meet new people.

The worst thing about my school is the continuous construction and expansion of the school.

There is so mnay things to do and so little time to do them all. It's hard to make friends especially when you live off campus

The worst thing about my school was and continues to be the overpopulation and lack of resources.

The worst thing at UCF is location because there is always some accident on Alafaya Trail which results in a tremendous traffic jam that could cause you to be there for hours when you only live down the street.

The worst thing probably has to be parking. Having over 50,000 students takes a toll when it comes to finding a parking spot in the many different garages and parking lots.

The worst thing about my school is the size. It is home to about 52,000 students making it the nations 3rd largest university.

The only bad thing about UCF is the way that people are chosen to sign up for classes. If you don't get to enroll in classes the first few weeks they are open it is really hard to get the ones that you want or might need.

The worst thing about UCF is that they are focusing more towards the medical programs instead of the broad spectrum that they offer.

The administration is a little round about when your trying to get a problem fixed. EXample: I was in a program called A.I.C.E in high school and the credit transfers were in the course catalog book but the administration didnt know how to transfer my credits right, it took me a couple months to get it settle. So be careful and follow up on the people who are suppose to be helping you to insure everything that needs to get done actually does.

The worst thing about UCF is that the cafeteria is so expensive. The food is exemplary, especially for school food, but it is not worth 8 dollars for dinner when the McDonalds next door offers me a 4 dollar meal. I guess that's the price for an easy, cooked meal, but I just can't afford that all the time, or even some of the time.

Not fixing the water. They built a football stadium, instead of making the water more healthy for the students to drink.

too much walking around

The worst thing about my school is they don't always offer the classes a student might want to take.

Huge population so sometimes I feel like I'm just a number.

Parking is probably the worst thing about our school. Depending on the time of day it can take anywhere from 5-30 minutes to find somewhere to park before class..

There is nothing terrible about this school.

The awkward schedualing system which tends to lead to confusion at the start of each semester.

The size. It really is way too big. There are too many students, and its a fight for the school to keep enough classes open and enough professors to teach them.

Some classes are hard to get into, as they fill up fast. You need to be right on top of your course schedule and registering.

There are too many people. It is a very large campus.

Its a little larger than I would like.

I consider the hardcore business teachers the worst thing about my school because they seem really nice, but at the term progresses they begin to have no compassion for their students.

Parking services and a lack of teaching assistants.

The worst thing about my school is the parking and the traffic

The ever-growing tuition and the out-of-state tuition are my biggest gripes, especially since the quality of education just doesn't seem to justify the amount of money. I'm forced to work practically full-time to ensure that I can go to school, afford a place to live, and eat. While there are many who share that situation or worse, it seems unfair that it's all simply due to the fact that tuition is too difficult to afford and not a culmination of other issues.

There really isn't anything to complain about or consider worst. I love my university!

The worst thing about UCF has to be the availability of on campus parking. Finding a parking space between 9am and 2pm is nearly impossible.

The testing lab on finals.

I went to a satillite campus so the campus was really small

Not enough money given to me

The worst thing about my school is that a lot of the harder level courses are large classes so the students dont recieve that one on one attention that is needed when learning some subjects like math and sciences.

There are some teachers you can't understand that teach in the lecture halls.

Largely liberal student body is unaccepting of conservative values. Class sizes are too large.

I feel like one of the worst things is that everyone jokes and says that UCF stands for U Can't Finish, which at first I thought was funny. However, I am now starting to feel like there may be some truth to that statement. I am going into my fifth year (not all at UCF) but it seems like I am never going to graduate. There is always one more test or class I have to take. I feel like they don't make it super easy or clear to find and accomplish all the necessary requirements for graduation.

Nothing
