A great general education school for a well-rounded education.

Although it is relatively new as Universities go (founded in 1963 as a technical college to support Kennedy Space Center), the school is now the 6th largest University in the US, and has successfully made the transition from technical college to major institution. During my time there, I found that the school offered a wealth of diverse classes, majors, and professors, all of which created an excellent learning environment, for nearly any academic area of interest one can think of. On the social side as a major university, UCF was a great place to gain the full university experience. While there was limited student housing during my time there, they've now added many many more on-campus housing facilities. UCF also has a full range of intramural and social clubs and groups, and a nationally known (although not quite nationally ranked unfortunately!) football team. They also have an on-campus stadium, which they did not have when I was there, but which really adds a sense of completeness to the school which had been missing. As a business major, I found that the School of Business also offered an excellent undergraduate business training, especially in Management Information Systems which was my concentration. In general, UCF is a great state school in a great town (Orlando, FL). It's breadth of options nearly unlimited, and the friends I made there I will have for life.
