Santa Fe College, perhaps, is not where you think it is -- just a few minutes northwest of the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. Although often overshadowed by its much-larger neighbor, Santa Fe College offers a smaller, more individualized college experience. This state college was established in 1966 as Santa Fe Community College. It dropped the "Community" part of its name when it began offering bachelor's degree programs in 2008. Some of Santa Fe College's graduates include Senator Marco Rubio, music producer Craig Fugate, and Olympic runner Robin Campbell.
Santa Fe College is home to the nation's only zookeeper training facility, located on 10 acres and home to more than 200 animals. The Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo is located on the west side of campus and was established in 1970. The program includes medical care, conservation, animal husbandry, breeding, and nutrition.
When looking at apartments near Santa Fe College, look northeast of I-75 along NW 83rd Street. If you don't mind a short commute along I-75, the neighborhoods of West Hills, Mill Pond, and Durant Estates are minutes from the college and very close to the Oaks Mall and the University of Florida.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
