I never attended this school, but the fact of the matter is I went on tour. The gave us a small simulation on what class and student life would be like on campus. Fortunately some of the teachers were nice and aloud us to sit in.

The staff isn't very responsive from what I saw. There were students waiting to see their administrators in the lobby. I'm not talking about 1 or 2. I'm talking about 5 and 6's.

Because the office wasn't open in the morning when our bus arrived, we had to hale down a student who thankfully had the time and kindness to lead us around.

When we visited the cafeteria it was very limited but the campus has a whole bunch of food options you won't even look twice about going there.

The student's get discounts on Disney tickets. The campus has a whole bunch of stores that (to me) its like a mini mall at your finger tips.

When it gets cold it gets cold so don't forget to bring a jacket. When we went to visit it was 30 degrees. Even though I was trying to play it brave, i couldn't keep my teeth from chattering when I asked questions.

The school is mostly online based. No internet, no knowledge. When I applied to the school they did everything strictly through e-mail and via myUCF. They also will tell you if you got accepted or denied through myUCF. They will only send you a letter IF YOU GET ACCEPTED.

The school is a good school with a strong performing art, biology, and fitness program. They have a cool gym with a rock climbing wall and brand new up to date materials.

The campus is very flexible wit housing. Even if your a freshman or an upperclassman, they have no problems with student's living on or off-campus. The dorms (online) look very spacious. We didn't have time to go in. From the information our guide told us, there very spacious and its easy to get along with people and move things around. You can check online for housing and what the videos look like. They are very detailed from most of the other school sites I've been on.

Even though this school is awesome. It was on my bottom list. Mainly cause its to far. I'm a Floridan but 6 hours is far for me with no car.
