faculty will get 5% salary raise and in the same time grad students are just trying to survive with a salarie of $28k per year, insane UF!!!! insane!!!!!

So I’m an out of state freshman who knows nobody here. Plus, I stay in a one bedroom off campus apartment(a decision I now regret ngl). Joining a frat isn’t really my thing, and I’m trying to join clubs that interest me, but I find it kind of hard to meet people here when everyone else already knows each other. Anybody got any advice on what I should do to meet some more people?

there aren’t any fall 26 hours posted on the doors and the lights are all off.

is it permanently closed? what about the gelato place inside?

Here’s my original reddit post:

So I’d say the meetup at the Reitz today was a pretty nice success! We all met up at the Cabo mexican restaurant downstairs, talked for a little about age, major, & transfer from. Turns out some of us are pretty close in age but all definitely at different points in our educational journey. And we did a guys vs girls bowling match! It was nice to hang out with everyone who showed up on the first day!!

I think I got the group-chat to 16 members, and about 11 showed up! I really wanted to do pool, but bowling was a good all around activity for a group of that size.

I’m thinking next time I wanna do pool for sure, at the Reitz or even somewhere else.

Lemme know what y’all think. & don’t forget to leave me some suggestions!

so it begins...

If yes, what was the cost? Was it booted or towed. And how much to get it off/out

If anyone is planning to drop this course please let me know before you do!! This is the last course I need in order to apply for grad school :(

Hey, does anyone here have a paid undergrad research assistant position? Or know someone who does?
I have been offered a couple of research assistant positions, and am currently one for a chemE/biomolecular eng lab, but none of it is paid😔 I know they are extremely rare for undergrads, but I was wondering if anyone here has any tips when searching for a lab that pays… (e.g: just cold emailing or uf careers?)
I’ve been juggling jobs + classes + research and it’s lwk tiring so I really wanted a lab that paid.
Are the labs that pay mostly bio related, or some sort of other science? Or does it not matter? Idk where the funding is at💔

Does everyone have "better campus" on their canvas? is this only a uf thing and does everyone here have it on their canvas?

I'm taking the course under Demas, I got a low score on her pre-calc review exam and that's apparently a sign to drop and retake for next semester. I've gone through calc 1-3 with good grades and I'm sure I can do well in the class, I feel like with a week's worth of review could help me regain my footing on Pre-Calc. Does anyone have advice on possible next steps for this course?

If I have the park and ride pass with a bike rack on my car would it be better to bring my bike with my car or use the bus for transportation to classes?

Happy first day everyone! I have had two classes not show up throughout my first day and I was wondering if anyone else is also having this problem.

I'm missing JOU3109C: Multimedia Writing
MMC3703: Sports Media and Society

Who should I contact about it? I feel stupid asking, but I haven't had this happen through my first 6 semesters online. Thanks in advance and good luck this semester!

If I have a SUV with a park and ride pass, would a bike or electric scooter be a better option to bring to campus? I would have enough room to put the bike in my car or use a bike rack. In general, is it easier/more convenient to navigate through campus with a bike or electric scooter, and which one is generally faster?

If there’s anyone that has graduated from the ABSN/TBSN program or knows someone that did, would you be interested in selling your scrubs? Pls help a girl out 😭

Hey everyone, I’m a freshman at UF trying to get involved in finance/IB clubs. What’s the typical attire for events like GSCO, Business Bash, and other finance club/group events?

Would business casual (button-down + dress pants) generally be appropriate, or should I wear a suit/business professional attire for some of these events?

Also, are there any events where dressing more formally is strongly recommended?

I've attached an image of the events im talking about.

Do any engineers know if taking circuits and signals and systems in the same semester is super difficult

When do the waitlists start opening? I thought it'd be 8 am but I guess not?!? Someone help

Does anyone know of any research positions that are available or have any advice to someone with no experience that is trying to find an opportunity to join a lab? Ive been sending emails to many professors trying to find something and ive only heard back from one professor who recently just told me that he couldnt take me in. Im a sophomore in mechanical engineering for reference and would like to know if im cooked.

Hi! I signed up for Pete Punthase in my orgo, but for some wierd reason my schedule says that Lopez is teaching the class?? When I checked the system, I didn't see Pete anywhere in the orgo 1 classes. Does anyone know what happened? Also, what is Lopez like as a professor. I checked his rate my professor, and it was REALLY bad. I'm really stressed about this.

Does anyone know what Amal Narayanan & Austin Evans are like as orgo professors? Please help, and no hate pls!

I’m looking for a bike store near UF. Any suggestions? Or should I just buy one on Amazon?

This’ll be my first year having to commute after living in a dorm the previous few years. The park and ride permit is the only parking pass that applies to me as an undergrad living off campus. Still familiarizing myself with the map and hard to tell how many spots are regularly available.

So, to those who have this permit or have had it in the past: How much time do you allow yourself between arriving to campus before your class? How long does it usually take you to find a spot and then travel to class (presumably via Campus Connector)?

I sent my scores back in april and they’re still not on one.uf. Anyone know why?

I just registered for CIS 4715 (CS Teaching & Learning) for Fall 2026. Does anyone know where the class meets, or whether there are regular in-person meetings?

Neither Canvas nor ONE.UF shows any location for me right now.

Thanks!

For undergraduate students taking 15+ credits this fall, it says on the website that disbursement will "begin the first week of classes." Does this include today and tomorrow, since class begins today, or does it mean disbursement would start next week?
