The Alligator is one of the largest student-run newspapers in the United States, with a circulation of 14,000 and readership of more than 21,000.[2] It is an affiliate of UWIRE,[3] which distributes and promotes its content to their network.

Students from UF and Santa Fe College, also located in the city of Gainesville, Florida, are allowed to work at the paper. Only college students are allowed to work in the editorial department or be advertising representatives or interns.[4]
The Alligator is distributed free on campus and around Gainesville and contains a mix of campus and local news coverage, as well as national and international stories from wire services. It also contains a sports and entertainment sections, the latter of which, known as "The Avenue". The Alligator prints on 11 x 14 inch paper, somewhat smaller than a tabloid size, closer in size to the compact format of The Times of London and the Chicago Sun-Times.
