“This was an incredible opportunity! I only have positive things to say about this experience, it truly set me up for success and greatly altered the remainder of my time at UCF by allowing me to achieve things I didn’t think possible. I highly recommend participating in this program, it will greatly improve your understanding of the legislative process at the state level and help you find job opportunities post-graduation.”
— Meg Hall, Former Student Body President
