[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid got in and really wants to attend, but I'm trying to push him to attend in-state (so surprisingly the OOS cost isn't too much higher than going in-state). Anyone with personal experience? What are the pros and cons? Is it easy to get back and forth for breaks? I've heard that the dorms kind of suck (i.e. communal showers) - but that its sort of like a "right of passage."[/quote] Pros - affordable for in-state, still relatively affordable for OOS compared to other schools, lots of school spirit Cons - limited direct flights into Gainesville that are expensive, dorms are not very updated (freshman are allowed to live off campus), parking is difficult Depends - online classes are common, big campus and enrollment, climate, very large Greek life presence, Gainesville I guess all of these could be pros or cons depending on what your son is after.
