      Definitely planning on it. Not only will it make my commute to in-person classes a bit easier, but it’ll also open up the amount of places I can go for dinner haha. Good looks!

    Hey! How was the college experience w covid and all? My friend is doing a year abroad at uf and I’ll be visiting her in october just in time for a fb game (which is in my bucketlist lol) but I’m worried i wont get the whole american college spirit and football experience bc of it!

    What he didn’t mention: Gen Ed’s are insanely difficult if you’re stem, get a scooter if you want cheap transportation for 4 years for $2.50 a week, get ready for left leaning ideology in every course you take throughout your college career.

      @@beautifullykayla It really depends, in general, most higher institutions tend to have faculty with left-leaning ideologies. However, a school like UF has a student body with mixed political beliefs and a high amount being right-leaning. I don't know how Zach came to that conclusion, but it may just be a biased interpretation/experience.

    Hello there was just curious about how hard It is to get into UF. I have a 1420 sat, 4.41 weighted gpa have taken about 13 ap/aice classes. Founder of DECA (placed 8th internationally), VP of HOSA, VP of DKMS, national qualifier for chemistry Olympiad, NHS member, 200 volunteer hours, member of mu alpha theta (tutored math). Are my chances pretty solid. I’m currently a senior.

      If you’re currently at an inferior school then I think that’s a smart move. It ultimately gets you a degree from UF without having to be here for 4 years. It also definitely gives you an advantage when applying for UF grad schools.

      Realistically most colleges above a certain tier have a very similar curriculum, so what really makes them stand apart is their social aspect / alumni network. UF is great on all ends of the spectrum.
