Before you buy anything: what is actually true at University of Central Florida

A generic college checklist will cost you money here. These are University of Central Florida’s own published room measurements and rules — check them before you order.

Room size and rugs

Rooms run from 696 sq ft (Rosen College Apartments) up to 2058 sq ft (Lake Claire). At the small end a 8×10 rug is the largest that leaves walking room — measure before ordering anything bigger.
