LLC student testimonial:

“The LEAD LLC has been an integral part of my time in UCF thus far. As an international student entering a large public university in another country, I faced many fears of loneliness and solitude. However, the LLC has provided me with a group of fun, kind and welcoming people whom I have the privilege to share with every day. Whenever I feel bored or need help to focus, I simply go out to the floor’s common room, and without fail, I find someone to help me with that. The LLC has provided me with a special community of friends that I will always be grateful for.” Mario T., first-year LEAD Scholar
