What is PCUF?

Private College and Universities of Florida, PCUF, is an organization of twenty-one of Florida’s most competitive and prestigious private colleges and universities. Together we work with over 79,000 of the best and brightest college students from Florida, the United States and the world.  PCUF is an informal organization that shares ideas  concerning recruitment and enrollment practices.

One of our main objectives is to better serve students from the state of Florida.  We strive to increase recognition of private colleges and universities in Florida in high schools and community colleges, and among counselors, advisors, and students. Toward this end, we pool resources to host events and activities that showcase our institutions.  Click on “PCUF Events” to learn more.

In addition to academic excellence, we believe that a private education can be affordable and offer support, community, and mentorship that is a better fit for many Florida high school students than state institutions. Collectively we are here to offer students a multitude of opportunities; academically, athletically and socially.
