Every year, the Office of First Year Experience hosts its annual Family Weekend, a UCF annual tradition bringing together families and students to create memories that last a lifetime.<\/p>\n

This is a very special experience here at UCF that allows you and your family to visit UCF and experience what the university and Orlando area has to offer. During the weekend from Friday to Sunday, families had the opportunity to attend several events hosted by not only the Office of First Year Experience, but also events by several different departments on campus such as Housing and Residence Life, Career Center, Office of Student Involvement, and even Undergraduate Studies.<\/p>\n

These events included the Family Weekend home Football Game, Office of First Year Experience\u2019s Friday Knight Welcome event, and Open Houses of the housing communities by the Department of Housing and Residence Life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
