Not so bright
Good luck with the Accounting program, only a few good professors. I am disgusted by some of my professors. The bureaucracy in the Administration is a whole different story. Rollins here i come, i must be a fool if i even consider UCF for my MBA.

Quite Bright
I've never seen any university as arrogant as this one. I took the hardest courseload in high school (15 AP classes and 6 honors) and made it out with 4.1 GPA, 2070 SAT and they fucking DEFERED MY ADMISSION because I got a D in physics my second semester of sophmore year. My counselor asked them wtf is their problem and what they told my counselor is that they don't outrightly admit students who have D or F on their transcript.

Arrogant bastards. They accept people who took easy-as-fuck classes and had a lot lower GPA AND SAT scores. And they accepted instead of me because they don't have Ds and Fs? How about try making those idiots take 15 AP classes and see how they'll do? I'll put my life AND my family on the line that they'll end up with shit loads of of Ds and Fs on their transcript.

Fuck this school.

If I call my department I try not to mention my name because if I do the office manager flips on the switch in her brain to be as condscending and hostile as possible towards me. I have no idea what I've done to deserve this. If I ask basic questions like "Did you receive my fax?" some members of their staff become belligerent and say things like "I don't know what you're talking about!" or "Look it up on the website!" If I could find the answer myself on that mess of a website I wouldn't need to call them. This happens to me every time I call their office. I expect it, and I brace myself every time I need to dial their number. I don't even like to receive email from them. It's so hard to get paperwork done, I started telling my professors to fax paperwork to my apartment complex instead of sending it to the department just so I don't have to talk to the office manager and her staff.

I have repeated the same methods class three times, not because I'm stupid but because they can't place a professor who can teach it fairly. The first time, the professor gave 0/100 on the proposal which was worth 25% of the grade, half the class withdrew. The second time, another professor tried to teach 2 Phd level semesters worth of material into 1 masters level class; this time, 20 people withdrew leaving only 5 people including myself. The second professor was reprimanded, banned from ever teaching the course, and the students were REFUNDED their tuition! Woohoo! The third time around was the charm, albeit, the professor obviously didn't want to teach anymore; I scored an A...finally.

I wish I had found another graduate school, another university, one staffed with professional people.
