New Undergraduate Residential Complex with Honors College

UF Honors Village

The UF Honors Village is a vibrant new addition to the University of Florida, designed to foster a sense of community and support both academic and social engagement. With a blend of modern style and traditional UF elegance, the Honors Village houses 1,400 students in a mix of single and double suites, including ADA-compliant options, ensuring accessibility for all students.

Beyond student housing, the Honors Village offers a range of facilities aimed at enriching the overall student experience. Music rooms, teaching kitchens, and other academic spaces are integrated into the design to support both the personal and educational growth of residents. These spaces create opportunities for students to connect with one another through shared interests and collaborative learning.

A standout feature of the Honors Village is the Honors Common, a dedicated space for enhanced academic programming, as well as faculty and staff offices. This hub encourages meaningful interactions between students, faculty, and staff, contributing to the close-knit community atmosphere.

The UF Honors Village marks a major achievement in UF's goal of strengthening the university community by providing a diverse range of social and academic experiences. It serves as both a home and a place of learning, ensuring students feel supported and connected throughout their time at UF.
