UWF might as well be short of the University of Wierd Ass Florida. It is such a crappy school compared to the other 10 respectable universities in Florida.

UWF is extremely similar to FGCU and even UNF. It's very small and does not have a solid social life or programs. You will gain an education at UWF if you learn to read books and educate yourself. The instructors in a lot of departments are dumber than the students.

UWF lacks any sort of entertainment or things to do outside of the class room. All the places to eat on campus suck. The gym is decent. Nobody cares about the sports teams, there is no serious tailgating, no serious parties on campus, and nothing seriously fun. The dorms are eh and getting a house off campus with a group of good friends is a better idea.

Greek life isnt that interesting since it's only a fraction of what other schools offer you. SGA doesnt do much, all the other organizations on campus are small and not very serious either. There isnt much diversity. If your christian, you might like it since they are big on that along with gay organizations but that's about it. Not much room for for other ethnicity.

Pensacola sucks, its a very depressing city. The beach is done for and the bars dont let anyone in under 21 except seville and fish house which are very mediocre. If your under 21 you will be going to house parties very often along with night trips to the god awful waffle house and wataburger.

I transfered out of UWF to an average Florida state university after 2 years. I didnt want the huge college life of UF or FSU, but at the same time I did not want to relive high school. College is about making your own fun and experiences, but in a piss poor town with not much to do and a lot of strange racist people, it's incredibly frustrating and not worth your time.

Get your AA/60 credit hours and go somewhere else. Or go to UWF for 2 years to see exactly what I mean and then move on with your life. If your a southerner you may like it, but if your someone who likes diversity, high quality **** and wants to go to a real institution of higher education, stay the **** away from UWF!

Yes, you have it correct. I unfortunately sent my kids there and they are asking to transfer now. The professors are just Adjunct and don't teach, and the racism there is off the charts. NOT a safe campus at all, and if you speak up, you will be sorry because you will get no help and you will be kicked out for speaking up. My kids are leaving as fast as I can get the out of there. It is racist and hillbilly!
