The LINK Program is a way to get students engaged on campus and connected to many great resources UCF has to offer. Partnering with over 40 offices on campus, LINK provides various workshops and programs year round for students to attend.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Each LINK event is worth a certain amount of points called LINK Loot. When students attend these events, they earn Loot that can be used to bid on prizes throughout the year. While only FTICs are able to earn LINK Loot, all LINK programs are open to any student, regardless of class standing.<\/p>\n<p>Summer\u2019s event is a LINK Lottery, fall has a scholarship giveaway and the yearly LINK auction will be held in the spring term instead of fall as in the past.<\/p>\n<p>LINK is a program of the Office of First Year Experience in the Division of Student Development and Enrollment Services. For a list of current programs, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/link.sdes.ucf.edu\/\">link.sdes.ucf.edu\/<\/a>.
