One DII school Harding and one DIII school Hendrix in Arkansas have higher than that, and one school, College of the Ozarks who plays in the little known National Christian College Athletic Association has more than that

University of South Florida's endowment is $690 million

Florida Atlantic and Florida International are both above 200 million


Are there financial irregularities that need to be investigated at UCF?

Given their enrollment you would expect it to be much higher.

Which leads a person to one of two conclusions.

A: A lot of people graduate from there and can't wait to avoid supporting their school.

B: There might be some financial hanky panky going on.

Isn't the bulk of their student body comprised of online students and commuters though? Similar to a JuCo.

A degree from there is literally worth a piece of paper.

Boise State's is even less than that, but they've only been a university status school since 1974

Lol, a MSU fan trolling UCF.

US News: UCF 160; MSU 206
Acceptance rate: UCF 44%; MSU 66%
4-yr grad rate: UCF 44%; MSU 35%
Indebtedness: UCF 22k; MSU 31k

only stat worth comparing.

Acceptance rate as a use to compare is laughable
Indebtedness as well considering UCF is a commuter school and likely to incur less debt as a result.

USNWR rankings are equally cringy for comparison.

I feel bad for defending state...

And MSU's is worth two sheets of paper?

Your only notable alumni are athletes & politicians.

Here is a "complete" list for 2019-2020

LINK

The Citadel $305 Mil. Not bad for a school that has only graduated 33,267 students from The South Carolina Corps of Cadets during the years 1846-2019....

FWIW, UCF has a current enrollment of 66k....

Public Universities in Florida have really low tuition rates. UCF's focus is not on research, it is a undergrad degree mill. Therefore, it has a low endowment.

UCF has a lot of buy in from local corporations. If you want to live in Orlando after college, UCF is a good option.
