UCF is becoming more popular because we are a GREAT school with a lot to offer, not because we couldnt get into UF.

Please do not make assumptions about a school being a safety school when it is not for many of us...

I very much have to agree with you on this one. Although UCF is not the place for me, it has a lot of wonderful things to offer and everyone that I have met loves it down here and is going to stay. Set aside the still wonderful Greek system, and you have a thriving campus with many activities and clubs to get involved in plus the benefits of living in a pretty big city. For the girls its great cause we have two of the biggest malls in Florida (in my opinion) with everything to offer. My half-sister only applied here and just recently graduated and couldn't believed that I was leaving. She loved it here and couldn't imagine going anywhere else. I also agree with one of the above posts...every university/college in the state of Florida has something to offer to someone. Every school has something special to offer and you just have to find the one that fits you. Actually while I am transferring to UF, I think it is sad that the state is trying to make UF the TOP UNIVERSITY when every one is great. Every university I believe should have the same playing field as the others.
