Though a fairly young university, UWF has worked hard to distinguish itself as a top-notch institution, attracting innovative thinkers from around the nation to participate in the constant growth and development of this vibrant academic environment. One of the university’s most unique and esteemed departments is the archaeology program, whose students and researchers are credited with discovering multiple sunken ships from the Spanish expedition that first established a settlement in Pensacola in the 16th century.
While most of the action in town is fairly far removed from the main campus, the UWF has no shortage of great options available for their off hours: Downtown Pensacola has developed a thriving nightlife scene, the gorgeous white sand of Pensacola Beach is just a short drive away, and the wooded landscape is perfect for outdoor activities like hiking, camping, and canoeing. Most students, faculty, and staff drive to the campus, and few apartments or houses can be found within convenient walking or biking distance; however, the rental market around Pensacola is full of affordable options to suit any taste or lifestyle.

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.
