Do you like hot weather, no snow and flip flops? Well, maybe you should think about going to college in sunny Florida. Over the summer I took a tour of the University of Central Florida. They have a beautiful campus with lots of diversity. They also have a wide range of majors and 13 colleges. A brand new football stadium and arena are always packed on game days. Go Knights! All the sport teams at UCF are ranked division 1. There is a wellness center with an indoor track, pool, rock climbing wall, and exercising equipment. UCF is located in Orlando, and is 45 minutes away from Disney and Universal Studios. For more information go to www.ucf.edu or watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVt62_dt67U
