“It is my sincere hope that we can reinstate this level of programming in Orlando. Currently, most of our major track and field events have shifted to Jacksonville, which is less strategic for us since our headquarters are located in the metro Orlando area.”

UCF is one of Central Florida’s greatest hometown success stories.

In just over 60 years, UCF has grown into one of the nation’s largest universities, a major research institution, a member of the Big 12 Conference, and an $8.1 billion economic anchor for this region.

Every year, thousands of students and families come to UCF for Orientation, Commencement, athletics events, performances, conferences, and other university traditions. They stay in Orange County hotels. They visit local restaurants and attractions. They experience the very best of this community.

Don’t just take our word for it.

UCF, Orlando, and Orange County have quickly become the must-visit road trip destination in the Big 12. When schedules are released, fans from across the conference are already circling their trip to Orlando to cheer on their team — and enjoy everything our destination has to offer.

Big 12 Fans are Making Orlando a Destination.

CENTRAL FLORIDA IMAGINED A GREAT UNIVERSITY.
THEN IT BUILT ONE.

UCF began without centuries of inherited wealth or generations of facilities and donors behind us. What we did have was a community with a bold vision for what could be. For more than 60 years, UCF has turned possibility into progress for our students, our community, and our state.

Because at UCF, we do not stop at “What if.” We dare to build what’s next.
