UNF is at an ideal crossroads where incredible educational opportunity meets a particularly personal atmosphere. Here you’ll have no problem being yourself in a place small enough to acknowledge your uniqueness and large enough to broaden your horizons.

When it comes to the classroom, our commitment to hands on learning means you won’t spend four years sitting at your desk. We aim to help you bring your studies to life in new ways. Apply to participate in a University-funded Transformational Learning Opportunity (TLO) and you’ll have the chance to work closely with some of our most respected professors conducting specialized field studies, traveling abroad for research, or initiating community outreach projects.

From 2006-2009, UNF spent roughly $175 million on facility improvements and new construction, including a student union, residence hall, and tens of thousands of square feet of classroom space. These new additions to our campus have made a good thing even better. As a UNF student, you can grab lunch, play a game of pool, take a yoga class, catch a movie, stop for a cup of coffee, and watch the sunset on the lake without ever leaving campus!

The University is a thriving campus in a bustling section of Jacksonville. Yet UNF retains its small-campus feel, helped by its location amid beautiful lakes and nature trails. The campus also is midway between downtown Jacksonville and the Atlantic Ocean, which adds to the appeal of its location.
