UWF is an OK school if you're moreQuite BrightEducation
UWF is an OK school if you're more focused on academics than a social life. The social life here incomparison to other Universities Sucks and it's the students' fault not the administration. SGA is full of a bunch of conservative liars who only look out for themselves and not for the student body. I'm in the school of Education and I love it! However many of the students in this program are distance learners and are just not that bright. This sucks because we have to work in groups in every single class and I always get stuck working with a parent that thinks they know everything because they have kids. Dr. Gaudette and Dr. Solarski are wonderful and the advisors have been a big help to me. UWF has the potential to be a great school but the students here are lazy and want everything handed to them. They don't want to work. They don't try to make friends. They complain 24/7. They want to keep the school as a commuter school instead of allowing it to grow. I give the University an A but the students an F.

Question
The Pre-Law department it superb.BrightPreLaw and Legal
The Pre-Law department it superb. The faculty, especially Susan W. Harrell, are amazing. The faculty really work hard to form personal relationships with students. Receptions, high end dinners with judges and lawyers, and a very challenging curriculum make the Pre-Law department the best on campus. UWF is the only school with a designated Pre-Law program in the state. This school is amazing.

Question
UWF is a topSuper BrilliantFinance
UWF is a top of the line school. Great dorms, facilities, gym, and business school. I have an ocean view from my dormroom! UWF has a very private school like atmosphere, but at the same time they are growing at a very rapid pace. It is a trully exciting time to be at this school!
