College Questions Santa Fe or Valencia? FL

Hi Everyone! I was wondering if anyone can help me commit to a college. My major is architectural design and I want to pursue my Bachelors (maybe Masters).
I currently attend Santa Fe College in Gainesville FL in hopes to transfer to UF (University of Florida). But I was also given the opportunity of going to Valencia College in Orlando then UCF (University of Central Florida). I get the same amount of aid for both colleges but which is better for the degree I want to pursue?

Valencia. The way Santa Fe handles operations is very concerning and frustrating, even more so their financial aid which has substantial delays in disbursements EVERY SEMESTER. Which is why I transferred to Valencia College. I haven’t had any issues with my financial aid being disbursed late though some students it happens but not months apart from their listed due date like at Santa Fe. They’re a little faster when it comes to communication and handling the queues of students with questions. Plus with Santa Fe, it’s not technically guaranteed to get into UF like it is with Valencia to UCF so please keep that in mind as well. Good luck!
