Florida International University Top Questions

Probably the location. The Modesto Maidique is located in more of a suburban-type area, not like an urban or city setting, or a historic city-esque setting, which I feel would have more life to it.

The worst thing about FIU is that it rains a lot!!! I live on campus so I know. For some reason, mother nature will not rest if it doesn't rain at least once for the day at FIU. Sometimes it will rain for several hours, which left me stranded in the library on a few occassions. If you attend FIU, make sure you own a jacket and a umbrella.

Most people at the university don't care about what they are learning and where they will be in a few years. People here are driven by fraternity life and what parties they will be attending during the weekend. As well, most class work is extremely easy for a college level class.

I don't think my school has much spirit, its mostly a commuter school so parking is awful and there are only a handful of dorms or frat houses. I just think that they aren't doing it right.

I can't really think of anything terribly wrong with this school. Unless, of course, you fall in with the wrong crowd. At that point, activities of questionable morality and legality appear, and there could be trouble for everyone involved.

Being born and raised in Miami, it feels like it is simply a "13th grade".

The worst thing about my school is that is far from where I live. Everything else is great!

the worst thing is the large size of all the classes. Each class has over 200 stuendents so you never interact with the professor
