Champions play at UCF.

Knights athletic teams have earned landmark victories on state and national stages—from American Athletic Conference titles to BCS bowl wins. But some of our student-athletes’ most important triumphs have been in the classroom. They’ve achieved an average GPA of 3.0 or higher for 18 consecutive semesters and earned a 93 percent graduation success rate, which ranks number 1 in the nation for public universities. Success isn’t as sweet without the cheers of fans in the stands, so every student gets free admission to sporting events on campus. Being a part of the action is an important part of our lifestyle—because we’re never as strong alone as we are together.

Visit UCFKnights.com to get in on the action.
