we actually have a really pretty campus
and since you don’t have a car it’s a lot more compact and easy to walk around
topaz stirrup
Something to also consider ^ UCF’s campus is massive, my friends walk 40 minutes to their classes sometimes
compared to at FSU where I think it’s more like 10 minutes
(It’s also ~10-15 at uf in my experience)

what major are you anyways

accounting
reef shuttle
btw funny how yall share your college of engineering with FAMU
it’s very practical! remember that fsu was an all girls school until almost 1950 so we didn’t really have an engineering program, and famu being a hbcu also wasn’t getting the snazzy state resources until post 1960s
since neither school had a college of engineering and they’re so close to each other it makes a lot of sense to share

nice
also is it easy to get a double major
I wanna do CS/Business Admin

they have to admit more
it was like 60k applications last year with 15k accepted? UF sucks and doesnt publish yield rate statistics, but FSU does so we'll go off of that for this exercise
in state applications probably hold steady, i think a lot of these new applications are from out of state lumped in with peer school EA's like unc, uva, umich, etc
the OOS student who applies to fsu vs uf is lowkey quite different
this crackpot math is getting too complex for me
tldr oos apps increase, increases average stats of accepted students, which decreases yield rate by an unknown amount due to increased availability of schools

totally not biased but... i think uf is generally regarded as the uni with more recognition + industry connection + job placement. it also depends on aid, bc i didnt apply to umass bc the aid wouldve been DOOKIE </3
granted i am oos but even in-state its an expensive school
upper sleet
umass is expensive u mean?
strange gull
yes
upper sleet
oh i got an 18k per yr schoalrship
strange gull
yeah but isnt it like . $50k/yr or something crazy
upper sleet
im just refering to the connection with industries and more research and job opportunities overall
which is a better place to get a degree
in the longer run
upper sleet
yeah but isnt it like . $50k/yr or something crazy
yeah its like 44k
strange gull
which is a better place to get a degree
still uf
upper sleet
i see hmm
strange gull
iirc umass might have better research but thats mostly good for grad school, and uf has a good enough brand to get you to grad school if thats the goal
upper sleet
yeah im international so i think i would pursue grad school too
strange gull
and uf research is definitely not . average. i think they're both excellent in that regard
upper sleet
ooh i see
i havent researched much on uf
i applied cuz it was cheap and also really well ranked
strange gull
well its well ranked for a reason LMAO
upper sleet
i got into umass and im still waiting on ufs decision
upper sleet
well its well ranked for a reason LMAO

strange gull

I also visited uf once but... tbf that was pre-acceptance in my jr year and I didn't want to go again unless I was accepted

also got more baddies
that’s true
do you want to go to a school with baddies or a good stem program?
topaz stirrup
uf or ucf
uf
IMO!!! the only stem major that I’d consider ucf over uf for is aero
just cause of the nasa connections
but even then
uf has more prestige, better resources, and (in my opinion) a better student culture
I mean I’m obviously biased bc not only did I choose to go to uf, I chose NOT to go to ucf so
native oak
just cause of the nasa connections
Especially with Bill Nelson
strange gull
do you want to go to a school with baddies or a good stem program?
the way baddies is even a consideration is so funny to me bc those girls PROBABLY won't want these dudes fr 💔 just window shopping atp

UCF is slammed with NASA wannabes (as told by my friends there) but UF you have more of a chance to stand out and support to do so (hello Swamp Launch Team)
Northrop Grumman also sponsor a butt ton of engineering stuff and one of my friends got an internship out of it
