SPirit

Croix

The fact that UCF is its own little Vatican City makes the entire campus feel like a home away from home, and while to some college students who live within miles of the campus, I find myself hours and even states away from my family. To be a part of something that makes you feel whole and makes you feel home is very important for out-of-state students, as well as those who just get homesick. Your friends become your family and your teachers, your employers. The staff are the government, and the chefs, your saviors.

I am looking forward to finding ourt other good things about the school in the near future.

The diversity of the student body is the best thing about UCF because everyone can potentially learn something new and interesting from one another if they network with one another. It is great to know that everyone is here for similar reasons: to make a career path for ourselves to follow by obtaining the necessary education, experience, and training.

The ability to have hands on practical learning along with theory. This is especially usefull when the student enter the field. To be able to practice what is learnt in class concretises the knowledge so that it become part of the students very fiber. Yes. this i believe, sets the best of us apart from the rest of us. They enter with more confidence in themselves and with less reliance on others, fully independent. This is what is consider a full on dynamic emersion experience.

The best thing about my school is not only the serene and relaxing atmostphere and scenery but the welcoming and family like atmosphere the staff and students set up especially for freshman. Counselors always say that big universities equal loneliness and isolation would be great, but i didnt feel that here. There are so many events and people here to make you feel like you are part of the UCF family. My greatest fear when filling out applications for big schools such as UCF was that i would be all by myself but they make it feel like home.
