Universiy of Florida Review

open your eyes: A no one food market for hundred years,

It's big and beautiful campus. A lot of gator vibes

Best school in Florida, academically and overall athletically. Had the best time of my life while attending the University of Florida.

I have never gone here nor would I want to after checking it out it was huge and pretty but that's all a cover for incompetence and bad teaching skills, also the water sucks.

Can not wait to spend February 8th my birthday with the Florida Gator basketball team and then be told miss February 9th what a birthday thanks go coach white and Gators

I've gotten two degrees from this University, an undergraduate degree and a law degree. The campus is great and well taken care of. Students here are just like any other college students, most work hard but also party hard- which can be a benefit or a disadvantage for a prospective student, depending on what they're looking for. (Most find it to be an advantage, I think.) Most importantly however, UF provides outstanding amenities to its students that not only make you feel like you're part of a community, but also provide for you as if you are valued. Free UF clinic/doctor visits with minimal payments for alternative services (I used UF clinics, sports medicine clinic, womens clinic- all were good), free psychiatric care or counseling/therapy (in case you aren't aware, this stuff is REALLY expensive in the private sector), UF provides all kinds of job fairs, student and cultural associations and opportunities, and generally opens itself to the Gainesville community artistically, academically, and more. I have even taken my pets to the UF animal hospitals and (unfortunately) had to receive care at UF hospitals myself. I would say that I've experienced every facet that UF has to offer, and been nothing but pleased.

I'll be an alumni donor for a long time.

Kevin Folta needs to be released from his position because of his lying and taking bribes.

So glad UF is within the top 10 best public Universities within the United States.

october 19th, 2017 marks the beginning of the university of florida's moral hiatus. by ringing their bells, they sowed their seeds with the alt right. this university can "move forward" with dirt on their conscience.

University of Florida in Gainesville Florida is one of the worst things that ever happened in Florida. jt

corrupt and nefarious institution that prizes nepotism and collegiate athletics over scholarship and accomplishment. My three years here are a total professional embrassment to me, and I ll never give these grifters a dime. Save your children and send them elsewhere for higher learning.

There are Moe's people and Chipoltle people. I am forever a Chipoltle person. The ingredients are always fresh and clean.

When I got to UF it felt like the REAL deal. I had the misfortune of growing up in Tallahassee and did not realize that it was the Bush leagues. I am not solely talking sports. UF is a very academically challenging school. I had thought about going to FSU but realized I had good grades and a high SAT score, which made me eligible for Gatorland:). Hello Florida!! When I would go back home, my friends that chose(?) FSU seemed to have little to no academic challenges. Then again, none of these people had applied themselves in high school. As far as an overall University, Florida is easily in the Top 5 among state schools across the nation.

Not the biggest fan, probably because our tour wasn't good and it was extremely hot outside, but it was a nice school to take a look at and has a good reputation.

All the little bikes spoils the beautiful campus. Poor!

My experience at UF turned out to be everything I dreamed it would be. I received a GREAT education.
I majored in Family, Youth, & Community Sciences. I cannot speak for every college, but in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences the professors invest in their students.

I really appreciate the diversity that UF's campus has. Everyone can find a sorority/fraternity, club, or friend group that relates to them. I was scared coming to a school with 50,000 students, but I made friends that will last a lifetime.

UF is also very affordable! I'm pretty sure it's one of the cheapest universities in Florida and also the best (#1)!

I always have a wonderful experience every time I come here for testing! The staff is super friendly and helpful! You can tell they really care for their patients! Their is sometimes a wait but for the most part you don't have to wait that long!

Favorite college ever hoping to play football there

The University of Florida campus is beautiful! It's so large that there are always plenty of things to do, whether you want to sit outside on the lawn and relax, go for a jog, or find a Subway - there are so many Subways on campus!

I Love thieerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr biscuits their so creamy and so jusiy

im 13 right now and want to go to this school alreadyy !!!!!

Being at this school is mentally draining. I can not wait to graduate. I also will not be applying to grad school at UF. This university is so money hungry it's ridiculous. Seems like you gotta pay just to breathe! The parking is so confusing and complicating. I wasted money on a parking decal where the parking lot is almost an hour away from the actual campus. There's literally security in the parking lot waiting to give students parking tickets, (I got one my first semester). You're better off taking the bus or riding your bike.
Yes, there are benefits to going to UF such as free bus rides, student discounts, a nice library, and free access to the gym. However, you're paying for it either way so technically it's not free.
Going back to how mentally drained I feel being at UF, the students and professors are unbelievable. For starters, some of the professors are so lazy and anti-religious and tend to bash Christians and Catholics. They're so driven to shove their liberal beliefs down your throat, it's embarrassing.
The students at this school are also what drives me crazy. They pride themselves to be progressives and open-minded, but honestly they aren't. The students segregate themselves just like high schoolers. You have the Asians, blacks, whites, Hispanics, hipsters, jocks, Muslims, etc. in their own little cliques. Even the sororities and fraternities are separated by color/ethnicity and they all look and dress the same. I find it quite sad that students don't try to branch out and communicate with people outside their comfort zone. These students are so sheltered and live in this college bubble.

I suggest you to enroll at another school if you are down-to-earth and don't have a one-dimensional personality.
If you enjoy cliques, if you're a PC person, and if you enjoy systematic learning, then this school is perfect for you.

Loved the place. Huge University. The college of engineering is just awesome. If you are wish to pursue research contact the faculties before you join the university. It may take around 3-4 months to get an advisor here. I feel proud to be apart of such a prestigious university whose standards are getting better each year.

Pride of the Sunshine..
UF is the most prestigious of all University in Florida, with the most stringent academic standards required for admissions.

Mom and Dad happen to be past Alumni w/ three Kids enrolled at UF and can't cant be more proud of our children's hard work! Nick, Piper & Bailey
Go Gators!

My son want to study in florida university but we ask if there is good football team sccre team

Wow, people work their butt off to get in here and it's a complete waste. Staff and advisors are incredibly unprofessional. This is a university they don't care about education they care about how much money they can make off your back. Campus is unsafe and scary environment. Don't even think about parking on campus because you will be towed within a matter of minutes. Don't waste your time, or financial aid money attending this institution because they do not care about your education, only the money they can make off of you.

Not sure why people give Google reviews to a university, but might as well? UF is great!

They need to have a few more advisors available for their Engineering College and Medical College. It is very difficult to get in to see someone. It takes them up to 3 months for anyone to get back with you. The housing office needs to be more efficient and helpful. Other than that, it is a great college. If you graduate from UF, you will definitely be able to find a job.

I hate this school I was walking around campus and a gator bit my friend Chubbs hand off.

The worst housing I have ever lived! The room had mold in it.
The wifi system and password took me 2 months after classes started to make because my name was wrong in their system. The dining always have the exact same food in days of the week. I hated the school

* Very disorganized system overall.
* Unprofessional advisors and other staff.
* Poorly designed website and mobile app that only work about half the time.
* Shady policies and sneaky charges.
* Tuition is pretty steep compared to other state schools.
* Lots of campus disturbances.
* Lots of public disturbances.

Aside from the incompetent staff and surprise fees, the campus is filled with obnoxious political campaigning and activism, and the weekends clog the streets with endless traffic jams during football games and leave the streets filled with trash and neighboring properties vandalized the next morning. It seems impossible to get even the simplest questions answered in fewer than 2 months, 7 phone calls, 5 transfers per call, 4 snippy attitudes, 2 unanswered emails, 3 unreturned voicemails, and 1 threat to charge you extra money for some random and obscure fee for everything you do. The educational quality is on par with any typical university, but overall it's not a pleasant experience.

Actually, I can summarize life at UF with one experience: I wanted to register for a class, but I can't do that myself. I have to have an advisor do it for me. So I tried to call my advisor, and reached a receptionist who offered to schedule a 30-minute phone appointment with my advisor in 2 months. THAT is the level of bureaucratic garbage you have to look forward to at UF.

A school filled with opportunities if you are persistent in looking for them. There is an incredible amount of organizations and student programs available, and you could go out and make your own if you would like to. Many professors are involved in research and are sometimes willing to give undergraduate volunteers/work-study students a valuable experience. In my experience as a computer science major, professors or TAs are willing to help during their various office hours. Some professors should be less vague with the expectations they have of their students, but overall this a quality school with a great future ahead of it.
The school can also be pretty aesthetically pleasing in some spots, which is a nice added bonus.

We've been on 3 college tours now and this school by far was the best. I took a tour with my daughter a week ago and was very impressed. The 2 tour guides we had were very knowledgeable about everything. The campus gave us that small town feel. It was also clean and very well kept up. Very impressive especially since part of it was built back in the 1920's. We also got the impression that there was a lot of school spirit and pride. Looking forward to seeing my daughter become a Gator.

;( COE SESPECS departmant is mess. Wasting time and money for two years. so regret to not to transfer another college
Thanks google for giving me a chance to tell this otherwise nobody cares about your ideas in this university

Very polite...and very fast service neat and clean they have helped me so much....

The small animal hospital is stunning! Love the Oncology Dept and all they do. Was there with Lap of Love veterinary hospice and they were so compassionate! #gators

UFL @ Gainesville, Fla is a very large sprawling campus. Everywhere one looks speaks of an area teaming with life! I even rode thru @ nite, and the campus was busy! I truly loved it!! The overall atmosphere is one of happiness among the students.

Visited the annual Poinsettia Sale at The Horticulture Club's Fifield Hall on 12/11/14. The thousands of plants on display and for sale, were absolutely gorgeous. We were told that students and volunteers would be available to answer questions and handle sales. We met a woman - whose name I forget - who was a retired biologist who'd worked at the Univ. FL. She was volunteering and was outstanding! She answered many questions we'd asked regarding growing poinsettias. She made the day with her knowledge and enthusiasm! The students handling the sale were prompt and helpful. Our only concern was we were unaware that they only accepted cash/checks. If that was included in any of the advertising, we would have brought more cash so we could have bought more plants. They were magnificent!!

Love my school! Amazing staff, professors, students, and overall environment! Completed my degree within three years and I had the best experiences in each one!

The customer service is awesome! Every time I had a concern or problem about my library card, status, holds, immunization records, etc. they went out of their way to help. The secret is in calling, they either help you right away or transfer you to someone who can. They are never a disappointment. Makes me proud of being in such a professional school and friendly school.

What a great school!!! Number 1 in the state of Florida. Both of my cousins went here. I'm pretty proud to be their cousin. This school has tons of school spirit.

I Love thieerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr biscuits their so creamy and so jusiy

Excellent institution, with a work team committed to education. Excellent experiences and amazing facilities, you find everything.

Even though I'm a Florida State fan The University of Florida is a great place to visit. The medical staff at Shands Hospital and The Orthopedic Sports Institute and medical clinic is great.

Excellent university and students. Could use some diversity training.

The teachers all had ligma and gave it to me and I'm gonna die soon goodbye all might as well commit toaster bath and eat meat sauce
