Welcome, New Students and Families!

Allow us to be among the first to welcome you to Gainesville and wish you a huge "mazel tov" on your acceptance!

UF Hillel is here to help you learn about the Jewish student experience at University of Florida and Santa Fa, share opportunities to get involved before and when you get to Gainesville, and provide connections for new Jewish students and their parents to meet each other.

Above all, we want to get to know you and be a resource to you throughout your time in Gainesville, especially as a first year student.

If you are an incoming Jewish student or the parent of an incoming Jewish student,

please share your contact information with the UF Hillel team by clicking on the button below!

NEW STUDENT INTRO FORM

UF Hillel Jewish Roommate Finder

The search for the ideal roommate is daunting, stressful, and filled with uncertainty. UF Hillel has put together a Jewish Roommate Finder Google Form for Jewish students to fill out if they are looking to connect with other Jewish students looking for a roommate for the upcoming school year.

A few things to note:

This is geared toward incoming undergraduate, graduate, and transfer students to UF and Santa Fe.
Students must fill out the Roommate Finder Form in order to receive access to the information from the other respondents.
Students should fill out this form, not parents.
UF Hillel is NOT matching students. We are simply opening up a designated space for students to connect with other students, both of whom are searching for Jewish roommates.
Students will be responsible for reaching out to other students using the contact information they provide in the form. Again, they will not receive recommendations from UF Hillel and will not receive email notifications about new responses to the form from others.
Upon submitting the complete form, students will be given access to the spreadsheet with other respondent information within 2 business days (weekdays).
It has to be said...UF Hillel is not responsible for any incompatible roommate matches that emerge from information in this spreadsheet, nor will we get involved in facilitating communication between two students or their families.
