Overall
I wish I had known...
Tuitions assistance programs: tuitions for international students who transfer are very expensive and therefore it takes a lot of resources to have the chance to study abroad as a transfer students (different for exchange programs)

Final comments
The International Center is a great place to get all the information you need. People there are very nice and helpful.
Use your time off to travel around the city and accross the State. Florida has so many unique places to visit that it would be too sad to miss the opportunity to take full advantage of being there.
Finally, University of Florida is among the best campuses in the US in terms of college sports: go to the Swamp (UF football stadium) or to the O'Connell Center (basketball, volleyball...) to watch the Gators playing for the national title every years!
Go Gators!

Personal comments
Overall, interacting with local students throughout social activities (sports, associations, class projects, friends...) helped me the most in becoming fluent and in leraning the culture. I think socialing with local students is equally important to studying well in class.
