Also, anything you hear about FSU having a great social life is bull. Maybe it does but not if you want to get anything higher than a C in your courses. FSU does not let you have a balance between the two. You will be spending more time working your ass off in the library to finish 20-page papers than you will experiencing a social life.
The good side is some of the students are friendly, especially if you go to places like the library Starbucks or the Student Life Center. These are good places to meet people. FSU is easy to get into, but it is hard to stay in.
Negatively, there were too many graduate assistants teaching undergraduate courses. Classes were lecture size (unless in upper-level seminar) which required you to put in extra effort to know professors. Greek Life and Athletics reign supreme here and yes they get special attention! Tallahassee is a small town with not many activities to do hence all the partying. The movies are packed every night!
On the other hand, positively, the professors that I did have were brillant and I believe I recieved an A rate education. There is ample opportunity to get involved in a student organization. I was a Resident Assistant, FYE Peer Leader, Honors Program, Department Club, and worked on the Renegade Yearbook. I was able to meet many friends who shared my interests. Since FSU has such a large student population, you will be surrounded by people of all different races, beliefs, and creeds. I loved that! FSU also has one of the most beautiful campuses, I loved walking to class and hanging out on Landis Green. Tallahassee offers a lot of independently owned restaurants and shops which I really miss now! MR. ROBOTO is delicious!All in all, I am proud to be a Seminole. I am thankful to have a job in my field and use my knowledge on a regular basis. FSU is a sports school though some programs are highly regarded it is not especially known for academics which you can sense on campus with students. A great thing to keep in mind, FSU is one of the cheapest schools in the country and Tallahassee also has incredibly cheap rent. A great bargain for a good education :)
