Do you know anything about these majors at either school? There are 4 different bus routes many buses for each route going at any given time for students, which are free, and city buses are also free for FSU students. Based on your circumstances and majors, I'd probably say that FSU would be a more suitable college.
If it comes down to it and the college you chose isn't what you want it to be, you're always able to transfer. Also, they are ranked higher than FSU in engineering, so they're not "unranked in everything. That being said, we are the second largest school in the country and have not reached that status by being "unranked" like a previous poster said, our engineering department is internationally renowned and offers tons of internship opporitunities for students as young as freshmen.
There is a heavy campus emphasis on community and most students are involved in our over clubs and organizations. If you're looking for academic success and opporitunity post graduation, this is your choice.
As the first college for women in florida, the architecture is stunning and everywhere you look there is a monument to it's history of rich education. It's located in our state's capital so there are a lot of opportunities if you're looking into a business or political major. They are also known for their arts. The tradition on campus is rich with a lively Greek life.
This school was 8 on the country's list of top party schools. My ex boyfriend goes there and he's in sigma chi and absolutely loves it. The downtown scene is active every night and you will never be left with nothing to do. Unfortunately, I don't go there so I can't offer much insight into the school aspect of it, but every time I visit it's a crazy party!
They also have the largest study abroad program with over 50 countries in the state and their football team kicks ass. I cannot imagine a talented student seeking LESS access to faculty. Smith isn't convinced. The rapid growth at UCF spanning more than a decade, he says, has hurt students. It really depends on the quality of the applicant pool. FIU actually has a lower admission rate than than all other Florida public schools, including UF, but which school do you think is more selective?
Basically, they have a "higher-quality" applicant pool. A large number of wildly unqualified people in their respective metro areas apply because they are the nearest, half-way decent schools.
Many people probably assume incorrectly that these schools will just take anyone. It's just a matter of preference. FSU has red brick buildings and rolling hills. UCF looks like a modern office park. Classes are larger and it is more difficult to schedule courses that you need. The nickname "U Can't Finish" happened for a reason.
Despite the complaints about crowding, UCF just keeps growing and growing every year. While Tallahassee is smaller, it is also the state capital. There are probably at least as many skilled jobs in Tally as there are in Orlando. I know it is a very personal choice, but I am just asking you all because you seem to know a good bit about colleges, in terms of what they are like.
By the way, UNF is in my hometown. I am a quite reserved person. Who has the better dorms? What are the major benefits of each? Are there things to do outside the college? Which has the best professors? Any info helps. Also… although I made good grades in high school… I am terrified that I will fail my college classes. To start all of the Florida schools you mentioned have roughly the same cost for tuition within 1k of each other.
The only major difference would be the room and board cost, and travel if you pay for your own car. If you do decide on a school farther from home, the Prepaid and Bright Futures congrats! To speak to your worries about the college atmosphere, it really is what you make of it. Dorms are dorms, for the most part. Most schools have some sort of free tutoring for students, and all professors have office hours. Younger daughter picked UF. UCF offers some crazy scholarships. Older Daughter is able to pocket money every semester she also has prepaid and Bright Futures which is great because she wants to do grad school.
With Burnett Honors College, her honors classes are capped at like 26 students so you get a personal experience. UNF is small, but most things are new. Classes are pretty small but I had pretty good instructors. UNF tried to mandate living in dorms for freshmen but recently gave it up.
Living away at college is not for everyone. UF has the hype, the sports, the reputation and seems like you can major in just about anything.
