💚 Giving back while gaining valuable experience!

The UCF Experiential Learning team had an amazing time volunteering at Second Harvest Food Bank, helping package meals for families in our community. Together, we helped support the production of thousands of meals for those in need. 🍽️✨

Students: don't underestimate the power of volunteering! It’s a great way to build skills, gain hands-on experience, meet new people, and make a real impact beyond the classroom. 🙌

Got questions? Our FAQs have the answers 💡

📌 Q: It’s Feb. 16-20 and I don’t see a match notification email?

🔎 A: Make sure to check your spam/junk folders. There is also a possibility you did not get a match this time.

📌 Q: I applied to 10 postings. What if I’m matched to two on one date?

🔎 A: Students are matched to ONE experience per date. This should never happen. If you receive two matches on the same date this is a program error. Notify the program immediately and communicate your preferred match.

📌 Q: After I get the email match notification, what next?

🔎 A: The email has the link to complete the Match Acceptance form. Once completed you’ll be added to the mini Orientation “webcourse”, and then you’re officially matched. Your name and contact info will be shared with your employer host, who will email you your final agenda and details for your shadowing experience.

The wait is almost over! Stay tuned and Charge On! ⚔️✨
