Living on campus puts you in the middle of all the action. You can cheer on the Knights on game day, grab a bite to eat a short walk from your apartment or catch a concert at the UCF Arena. Plus, you’re closer to what’s happening with any of our 400-plus student organizations.

Favorite thing about living on campus: It is so convenient

to live at the towers. the events at the UCF Arena are so

close, Knightro’s is across the street for a bite to eat, and

classes are just a short walk away.

Favorite on-campus memory: the RAs in the towers hosted

a retro video game night complete with old gaming systems—

everyone was reliving their childhood in that moment.

Advice to new residents: take advantage of RA events. they

help you get to know people on your floor, and you’ll make

new friends along the way.
