People who are not ready to be placed in a large scale university or be challenged academically.

In order to attend you must be willing to work for what you deserve as well as be able to handle the stresses of moving to such a largely populated school.

Students who are not motivated to work hard on a regular basis and put in a lot of time and effort to ensure long term success in the career of their choice!

The University of Florida is a school that caters to people who are looking for a career in something that is very applicable. Fields like philosophy or religion in my opinion seem to lack substance. Therefore someone who is thinking or contemplating a career in something similar to these might be better of in another school.

A lazy person. A person who just wants to party all the time.

Home to approximately 50,000 students, the opportunities to join clubs, sports and other organizations are endless. In the classroom, professors and students of all nationalities can be found in class sizes that range from fifteen students to over four hundred. Students at the university are proud to be there and show fantastic school spirit. So, if you prefer a smaller school with smaller classes, a less diverse population, and are uninterested in a community that praises the colors of orange and blue, you may want to consider an alternative university or a smaller community college.

There is something for everyone at my school, no group isn't represented on campus. Even if you're concerened about classes being too big, unless you're a science major class size is reasonable and there is are many resources to help you all around. If you won't seek help on your own however you may want to find a school that will reach out to you more.

Students who are not determined, proactive, or hard-working should not attend the university. Students who procrastinate on their responsibilities do not make school their highest priority. The university wants students who strive to "get ahead" and make every moment count towards a successful career and future. Therefore, students who do not complete homework, do not go to class, or do not give full attention to instructors during class should not attend the university in hopes of receiving a full, well-rounded education.

someone who doesnt like a big school

The University of Florida is for everyone. I come from a very close-knit Hispanic family, and even though my first semester was tough being far away, I stil pulled through. I feel like that is the only problem that students would come across. If they can make it past that initial homesick feeling, they can definitely make it through for all 4 years. Whether you're shy, outgoing, religious, atheist, gay, straight, and everything in between, there is definitely something on this campus that will help you feel at home.

The only kind of person who shouldn't attend this school is one that is not committed to working hard or very ambitious. In order to succeed in this school one needs to push himself to his limit and beyond. He needs to seek out help and guidance, not try and let help and guidance seek him; the latter will not get him very far in his career as a University of Florida student. Without being ambitious and hard working a student will miss all of the potential opportunities the cross his path.

The kind of person that shouldn't attend this school is a person whose's not self-motivated. A person who is not sociable and unwilling to get involved in the school should not attend. If a person is not determined to achieve goals or set goals overall they should not attend this school.

If a person can't stand seeing orange and blue everyday, then that person most definitely can't handle being a gator. In a town such as this, pride is in full effect everywhere. A school known mostly for its academics has now also become famous for its athletics. If there is such a person that finds themself where they can't at least like the little things of UF, then they certainly don't belong here, but should continue looking until they find their fit.

A student who is not a self motivator. Its a very large school and its easy to get lost in the crowd. If you aren't able to keep yourself focused, you may become distracted by the size, and find yourself lost in the shuffle. Also students who would be uncomfortable in a very sports-oriented institution, as the school athletic teams play a very large role in campus culture.

Students who perfer a small school, with small class sizes should not attend the University of Florida. If one prefers to have a closer relationship with his professors and peers, the University of Florida is not for them being that the campus is huge and many classes contain hundreds of students.

A person with no school spirit should not attend this school. One has to at least have spirit and motivation to accomplish their goals. With spirit comes a positive attitude and a positive attitude can open doors.

Someone who just thinks UF is a party school. People that think they can come here, watch some sports games, and just cruise through usually end up in trouble. The academic standards of the university have gotten to the point at which if someone is not serious about learning, they had best go somewhere else.

The only kind of person who shouldn't attend this school is someone who isn't motivated or someone who doesn't care. It takes a lot of work to keep up with school and it takes a lot of dedication, so I think that someone shouldn't be here unless they really want an education. Otherwise, they would be wasting their time and their instructors' time.

All kinds.

Someone who doesn't enjoy hard belly laughs, who doesn't like to make pigs-in-a-blanket at 3A.M., who is disgusted by school spirit, who is not willing to develop a good work ethic, who does not want to be pushed daily to continue to strive for personal achievement or someone who doesn't want to make lifelong friendships. Someone like that shouldn't attend the University of Florida.

Prospective students who are looking at the University of Florida should consider that the university is not a easy. Students who did not do the assignments, did not study for exams, or do not care about their education should not attend this university. University of Florida is not only a tough school to get into, it is hard work once you are in. For students who are looking to breeze through college and not having to worry about assignments/projects/exams, then University of Florida is not a option for them.

If you are the type of person who is overwhelmed by a big campus and the large class sizes that we have, you should not attend this school. If you are not use to studying a lot and cannot commit to studying a lot, you should not come to this school either. Yes, the University of Florida is known to be a party school, but if you do not know how to balance school and fun, then you should not come to this school.

Everyone should try to attend this school; it provides an atmosphere that encourages your growth and abilities. I suppose, though, if a student is not serious than the University of Florida might not be the best school; however, anyone should attend if they are able.

I believe that a person that is not dedicated should not attend the University of Florida. The professors and work load are intense and believe that every student should be dedicated and want to succeed. If the student does not have the same attitude, UF would not be a school they should attend.

Anyone who doesn't have the desire to succeed.

Someone that should not attend this school would be someone that is close-minded, not open for change, and anti-social. The University of Florida takes pride in tradition and spreading the Gator Nation and if you don't want to share in this legacy, then this school is not for you. Also, people that don't like the heat, because it gets really hot here in Florida in the Swamp. So somone would have to be prepared with summer clothes almost all year around.

The person who should not attend this school is someone who needs a smaller campus and needs more individualized attention.

Close minded, slacker.

A lazy person

someone who doesnt put everything they have into school because they will not succeed. also people who do no like big lecture hall classes

very shy and timid people because this is a huge school and you have to make yourself known to have a good experience here.

everyone should attend, unless you dont like sports or university activities.

Someone who doesn't have motivation to succeed in their career or academics. I've observed some students who have come to this school and within their first semester or year end up dropping out because they lost track of their academics and focused on partying or socializing more. A student who is not albe to discipline themself to stay on track with their classes and time manage socializing, work and academics should not attend the University of Florida, since it is a fun but challenging school at the same time.

People who like a big city environment will have a difficult time here, because even though the school is large, that's all there is in this town.

UF is not a good place for very conservative, close minded, easily offended individuals. A lot of crazy stuff goes on. It is full of nature loving, hippie, liberals who like to party and follow "alternative paths" religiously, sexually, etc.

no one

Someone who feels uncomfortable socializing or attempting to make friends. If they hate athletics, or don't enjoy large classes. People who don't want to challenge themselves. People who don't like to think outside of the box or make an attempt to be open minded. People who don't see college as an opportunity to grow and people who do not want to get sucked it to the school because it will suck you in for life!
