UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA VS. SANTA FE COLLEGE | differences, SF to UF 60% transfer rate & my experience In this video, I share my experience at the University of Florida and Santa Fe College, the differences between university and community college, and my overall thoughts about both college institutions. Santa Fe College is a great pathway to the University of Florida. #SFtoUF So, if you are a student who may be in the following situations, this video is for you: A high school student considering dual enrollment A current UF student wanting to take classes as a transient student at UF A high school graduate who is wanting to attend UF Someone who is just wanting some general information about Santa Fe College I've also listed some more differences below NOT mentioned in this video: UF Offers more bachelor and advanced degrees More difficult to get accepted without college credit Grading scale makes me cry, but it’s fine Larger campus that is more pedestrian-friendly as in walking around. Beautiful campus with historic buildings Let you take some classes at community college and transfer them to UF as needed Top-ranked school Santa Fe Offers more AA degrees & AS degrees and fewer bachelors degrees, but still some great ones Super affordable Easy to get accepted, but still competitive Locations all around Top-ranked community college You can take classes at any of the campuses Beautiful campus I don’t think you have to pay to park- at the satellite campus, there was plenty of parking... The Good Santa Fe definitely prepares you for UF/ any other major universities in Florida A lot of UF Professor is also teach at Santa Fe Many students will take their gen Ed’s at Santa Fe before transferring to UF The grading scale in Santa Fe is much easier but it does depend on the professor, too Ex: ENC1102 - 92 was an A, Santa Fe classes are cheaper Both located in Gainesville You can still be involved at UF if you attend Santa Fe (Greek life, etc) The transfer is 60% or better The Bad The textbooks still cost the same Stigma about going to community college first but there’s honestly nothing wrong with that, especially if you do it through dual enrollment. Santa Fe’s schedule starts at 8 a.m. in the morning at the satellite campuses UF starts at 7:25 in the morning. I never had an 8 a.m. at Santa Fe The Ugly The only ugly thing is that my GPA is ugly now. I never made a C at Santa Fe. Even my department chair noticed that when I transferred to the J-school. He said and I quote: “You don’t make many B’s do you?” Then, I proceeded to make a B every semester until I lived in a single dorm. But, I did make an A in both of my Reporting classes: jou3101 & jou3346l UF classes are notoriously harder. My GPA at Santa Fe 3.95. My GPA at UF as an undergrad 3.78. All because of those pesky little A-‘s... ✩ SUBSCRIBER COUNT: 469 ✩ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: Age: 22 Height: 6'2 Major: Communications Filming Equipment: Canon 80D & G7x Mark II Editing: Final Cut Pro & Adobe Premiere Pro ✩ HASHTAGS #sftouf #becomeaGator ✩ KEEP UP WITH ME: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/itssarahpic...
