Florida State University Top Questions

A person who likes a small classes and doesn't feel comfortable being around clubs or the nightlife.

Someone who is intimidated by a large community. There are a lot of people and twice as many things to do.

Someone who is shy and reserved.

Someone that doesn't desire to be at a big university. Being that it is a state, public university, there are 40,000 students, therefore classes that are required for more general purposes (beginning maths, sciences, etc), can be rather full. If you're seeking more one-on-one time that is not scheduled, then this university wouldn't be the best chocie for you. Getting help and information is very much dependent on the student. While all the information is laid out for you, you have to be a go-getter to get things done.

Although I believe that everyone deserves a chance at a higher education, someone who isn't in it for the long hall and who's dedication seems lacking shouldn't jump head first into such a school as Florida State University beacuse believe me, it's a lot of hard work. This school deserves students that appreciate all the tools it's giving us and it deserves a student that will take these tools and make a difference no matter what their major may be.

Persons looking to be pampered should not attend this school. FSU is an older school with older dorms and older buildings. I fell in love more with it's character and faculty members than anything else. Also, students looking to attend a public university in the state of florida and seeking a degree in medicine or law might do better at, say, UF. Students seeking business or engineering majors should probably consider UCF. FSU is versatile, but may not be the top choice for these majors.

I don't think there are any type of students who can't come here. The campus is a very diverse. I mean, it's majority white, BUT there are a good number of students from all racial backgrounds and from various nations.

Florida State University is a school that appeals to a wide range of people and offers great programs for most majors. The only type of person I would say shouldn't attend FSU would be someone who is looking for a big city college experience. Tallahassee is very isolated from other towns and cities and doesn't have much to offer off campus.

Everyone should attend Florida State University. There are amazing professors who care about their students for every major you can imagine. Students who are unsure of what they want to major in will get great help from the Exploratory Advising program unique to Florida State University. I came in undecided and with the help of this program, I now have two majors and two minors.

I find FSU to be a pretty diverse campus with many types of people with a variety of interests. From a social point of view, I feel that FSU is relatively all-inclusive. However, Florida State University is a very large school, home to over fourty-two thousand students. Due to the immense siz of the student body, those that perfer smaller more individualized school environments may not find this atmosphere to their liking. However, FSU attempts to corral class sizes down to a managable degree within the various majors.
