General New Study Room Booking Process!

Thumbnail

144 Upvotes

The UCF Libraries are implementing a new study room booking process for the John C. Hitt Library to better meet student needs. After gathering feedback and analyzing usage patterns, we have made adjustments to ensure fair access to study spaces while addressing concerns about availability.

The updated policies include:

Reservations up to 4 hours per day – Students can now book study rooms for longer, uninterrupted study sessions.

Monthly limit of 16 hours per patron – This ensures more students have access to study spaces throughout the month.

Check-in requirement within 15 minutes – If you do not check in within 15 minutes of your reservation time, your booking may be canceled, allowing other students to use the space.

Booking available up to 3 days in advance – Plan ahead while keeping rooms accessible for last-minute study needs.

No automated reservations – The use of scripts or automated software to book rooms is prohibited to keep the process fair for all students.

These changes reflect our commitment to improving study space availability while keeping the system flexible and student-friendly. Our goal is to provide equitable access to study rooms so everyone has a fair chance to reserve the space they need.

For more details or assistance with reservations and the full policy, visit the Study Room page or ask a librarian at our Access Services desk. Thank you for your patience—we’re always working to make your library experience better!

General Unpopular opinion: if UCF requires a course for your degree but only has one scheduling option, it should also be (at least partially) virtual

Upvotes

Why are some classes only available past 5pm? Not everyone lives close campus or we have jobs, having only one option is unfair and can delay graduation dates.

Academic Program 👩‍🏫 In-person TEAS vs. Online, and are Practice Tests A & B harder than the real deal?

Thumbnail
3 Upvotes

Hi guys! I’m about to take my TEAS exam in person soon and I was wondering if it’s actually easier than the online version? I’ve had a few people tell me this, but I wanted to see what others think. I’ve taken my past two attempts online (got a 69 on the first and a 77 on the second).
I’ve also been using ATI practice tests A and B and was wondering if those are generally harder than the actual tests? I scored a 67 on A and a 69 on B, but the weird thing is i’m scoring higher on the practice tests in the sections that I scored lower on in the real exam and vice versa. For example on the real exam I got a 50 on science in the practice I got in the 60s and in reading& math on the real exam I got 90s and on the practice tests i’m getting 70s.
Thank you so much in advance for helping me out! Also, if you have any random tips or advice at all, I would appreciate it more than you know!

General Best days of the week to take classes

5 Upvotes

Hey guys! I’m a new student and will live off campus. What days do events usually occur on campus? I can only take 2 days per week for classes since I’m 3 hrs away from ucf.

I wanna do in person classes since it’ll be nice to get involved with the clubs and events on campus.

Thanks!

GOOD VIBES 🎉 Take advantage of this school!!

142 Upvotes

I feel like so many students aren't aware of the health related resources on campus.

The health services building provides so much for its students. You can get x-rays and lab work and consultations are free. I just got my blood drawn today and it was the least painful experience compared to prior bloodwork experiences.

It's very straight foward and the people there really care and don't wanna milk every last penny on you.

CAPS is also a great mental health resource! It's limited due to the amount of students who need it but its there.

Please take advantage!!!

P.S: If you've had both positive and negative experiences with the UCF health services feel free to share, this is just my expereince.

Research 🔎 Need 6 more participations for dissertation study to graduate

Post image
13 Upvotes

I'm a Kinesiology PhD candidate and I need 6 more participants to finish my final dissertation study and graduate on time! The quick notes:

  • Paid study ($50 Walmart gift card in your hand at the last visit)
  • 5 weeks, only 4 visits, each visit lasts ~30 minutes, all on main campus
  • Extremely flexible scheduling (weekends, late nights, early mornings, midday)
  • Intervention group drinks 1 chocolate protein shake per day (provided to you), control group does not. No exercise involved at all.
  • Both groups wear a watch for the 5 weeks and fill out 3 food logs per week.
  • We share whatever data you want with you (sleep, physical activity, blood test via finger prick, body composition, nutrition reports). Data that normally costs $$ to get on yourself.
  • Specifically looking for adults 18-40yrs old that don't workout often (<150 min. moderate intensity cardio per week and < 2 weightlifting sessions per week).

If you're at all interested and willing to help a brother out, you can email me at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) or read more about the study here: https://healthprofessions.ucf.edu/research/studies/effects-of-dietary-protein-supplementation-on-bioimpedance-characteristics-and-metabolic-health-markers/

Academic ✏️ Phy2048 at HCC

2 Upvotes

I’ll be taking phy2048 as a transient student at HCC, and according to ucf portal it is equivalent to phy 2048 studio, do i still need to take phy 2048 lab at hcc because hcc website state as lab section being mandatory

I talked to the registrar, they said lab component is necessary making it 5 credit class (4cr lec snd 1cr lab)
Is it possible for me to only take lecture since ucf accepts it as a studio?

Anyway I have about 1,000 tubes of toothpaste. I left it outside if knights pantry for someone to take.

Unfortunately knights pantry is closed at the moment, so I wanna make sure this all gets in the right hands asap! If you’re in need, please come pick some up!

Edit: toothpaste looses its quality in heat (but it’ll still be completely safe to use).

Edit p.2: GUYS I ALREADY DONATED IT, IM SORRY IF KNIGHTS PANTRY ISNT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!
If you want to, just take some that I left out and donate it wherever you’d like

Hellooo! I wanted to transfer into UCF for the Fall 2027 semester, but I'm expected to complete only 57 credits by Spring 2027. I was thinking of just taking one last class for the remaining three credits in a Summer A semester, but would that delay my entry into UCF? I'm new to college so I appreciate the help:)
