UWF is perfect for me because campus feels like home!
I chose the University of West Florida because of its supportive culture and the endless opportunity to be groundbreaking.
UWF's history of support for military affiliated students influenced my decision to become an Argonaut. The Military Veteran Resource Center being a one-stop shop created a smooth transition from an active duty service member to student.
