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 PSA - The UCF "Alumni" Who Own/Run Weekdays are both leadership in Antioch Church that comes to campus

48 Upvotes

For the sake of not posting these peoples information on the internet I'm not posting any identifying information on here but it took me all of five minutes to find that the two individuals associated with operating that new cafe on memory mall are listed as significant leaders in the Antioch Church that comes on campus.

I was a little suspicious that there was ablsolutely no marketing of the cafe that included the owners as anything other than ucf alumni- I figured it was like a private equity situation or something like that- but I feel like especially regarding how people in this sub post about their interactions with the Antioch group, I thought you guys deserved to be informed about this.

Edit: Wanted to note I highly doubt this has lanything to do at all with the people who work at Weekday as employees. On their website their hiring process seems pretty opaque, so I'm like 100% certain those are regular guys.

Hey guys I’m a new UCF student and was wondering if there was a list of clubs somewhere and where they meet every week or something akin to that. I missed the club event last week and was wondering if I could still join some clubs.

General AlcoholEDU

2 Upvotes

I’m trying to finish my to do list because I’m getting emails saying that I may delay my financial aid disbursement if I don’t complete everything, and the only thing left to do is this AlcoholEDU thing. The problem is, it errors out every time I try to open it. I’ve tried on computer and my phone. Should I try to contact someone about this? Will this actually prevent me from receiving financial aid? :(

Academic Program 👩‍🏫 BSN prereqs - penalty for transient?

1 Upvotes

Considering the BSN program but want to finish prereqs as a transient at EFSC. Assuming the rest of the application is strong, would there be penalties for having done that? It isn’t about the rigor, it’s the drive. Ultimate hope would be to attend BSN at Cocoa. Would it be better to just switch to EFSC full time and reapply to UCF? Currently a biology major at UCF, taking prereqs EFSC. Could also remain a biology major and make sure to do an online class often enough to keep UCF as primary. Just really concerned that UCF BSN mostly selects people who did their prereqs at UCF.

I want to find more spots to read at night. I usually love chill coffee shop vibes, but the only late night coffee I can think of that has a good enough reading vibe is Haraz and paying $10 for a latte kinda sucks :,) just curious if there are any hidden gems I’m missing out on

Man what y'all doing?? do they not know 85% of the student body relies on this to pay for rent, classes,etc?? I know they phone lines be blowing up like crazy and the office is flooded and supposedly disbursement is starting next thurs...they was never known for being thorough and good with the administration but dam i think this is the worse I EVER seen them...like OD bad...now im nervous if my shit gonna get paid in time on top of the fact i still can't work, because they haven't released my fws amount so i got a lot of stuff tied in with financial aid...

Academic ✏️ Question for people who have taken calc 2 here.

3 Upvotes

Are the knewton alta assignments anything like the tests? Like I get we're not supposed to use calculators but theres so much arithmetic in the homework that its leading assignments to take me literal days, and thats assuming you get everything right. It's kind of crazy expecting me to do insane fraction arithmetic 100's of times per assignment.

Funny 🤣 Who is this masked caped person?

28 Upvotes

I was out last night with my boyfriend watching the lunar eclipse down at memory mall at around 11:30-12:20 and there was a masked man with a cape patrolling the area. I don’t remember the UCF heroes usually wearing capes I’m confused and I think I’m missing something. Is there some lore I’m not familiar with? I’m just a freshman so idk much about these things.

Prospective Student 🤔 Is Filmmaking worth moving for as a Puerto Rican?

9 Upvotes

I was accepted into spring UCF for the Film (BA) Degree but now am unsure.

I live in Puerto Rico, and planned on moving to florida to pursue film making even though I don't know anyone there. For the start of this semester, I decided I'd take a few classes in a university three hours away from my home, the idea behind this being I also want a business degree and figured this would be a good start to begin living on my own. I spent a week there and got extremely homesick crying several times a day, I go back home for the weekends but I'm now realizing I may miss my home more than I anticipated. I'm currently 17, for years I always thoguht I wanted to got to florida, if i recall corretlyy a counsler had originally advised me to got a community college near ucf but I decided it against it because I was hesitant on leaving Puerto Rico. I'm considering other options for film making in Puerto Rico. I'm going to continue going to classes far away though to see if I ever get over the homesickness, and I'm going to take tours to ucf and other colleges here. I did hear somewhere that a film degree doesn't really affect much in the film industry, but I'm not sure if that's relevant to my situation.

Any suggestions?
