Testimonials

Keisha Byrd UCF Fellow

"I have had an amazing time at the UC Foundation. Working with the campaign/special events team has given me hands on experience in a field I want to pursue after graduation."

"I get excited to come into work everyday just knowing that I have a positive team and environment to work in. Being a student worker at the Foundation has let me see a side to the university that I was never quite knowledgeable of and has only enhanced my love of UC and being a bearcat."

"I have been working at UCF for a year and a half now and it has been such a wonderful experience. How many students can honestly say their boss says 'school comes first'?"

"There is a lot of passion for the students here at the Foundation and I would recommend this experience for future student workers hands down. Not only do you learn the "ins" and "outs" of the University, but you get to meet great people as well. This job has truly been a blessing."

“It’s been really neat seeing the ‘other side’ of how UC works. From the start, everyone was very friendly.  Even the President of the Foundation took time to work one-on-one with the interns.  It’s been a great environment to work and learn.”

“The time that I’ve spent at the Foundation has been well worth it.  I’ve been given numerous opportunities to take on REAL projects with real results and real impact.  It’s rare that you can find a internship position on campus that bestows such responsibility on a student, but I’m really happy that I did.”
