There is also a housing contract that you should sign if you are certain that your kid is going to UF (they are expecting a possible shortage due to 3 dorms that are being torn down) - though if you sign the contract and end up not going, there is a $225.00 penalty fee.
But seriously, UF has grown to have a great reputation and anecdotally, those who I met who actually go to the school love it!
Also be sure to bring a computer with a large screen for all your online classes.
