A person who does not focus on trends, brands or what is popular.

One who is unoraganized, un-friendly, unhappy and displeased with life.

I believe the type of person that should not attend Florida Atlantic University, is someone who is looking for either the "big" college experience (ie. fraternity row, huge football games, etc.). Our football games and greek life is good, however, there are much better schools to go to if you are looking for that experience. I would say FAU is small to medium sized.

I think all students should be able to attend this school.

A person that should not attend my university (FAU) would be someone close-minded. As previously stated my university is very diverse and what we do not need is any narrow-minded individuals. Also someone that is not serious about their education should not attend this school, because they would be wasting their time. FAU is very efficient when it comes to due dates, being on time, etc.

Florida Atlantic University is a very diverse school. One would say people of all ages, races, and social preferences at the school are very happy. Everyone socially and academically, so anyone could go to Florida Atlantic University and very much so succeed. Everyone is very welcomed. If one was to not enjoy a sunny humid environment, the area of Boca Raton would not be of preference for a student with no liking of very sunny; sometimes rainy days.

someone who is looking for large college parties should reconsider because FAU is a smaller division I school in the NCAA and the parties are typically smaller.

People who come to school just to focus on their social life and not on their education.

If you really love to party hard....than this is NOT the school for you. For those of you who are looking for an semi-easy transition into college, FAU is great. Its a big campus but not so big that you'll get over whelmed. If you're looking into appling yourself to your school work and don't mind a little partying, than this is a good choice.

A person who does not like a quiet social scene, a very small campus, or a clique-like atmosphere should not attend this school.

Any student that is not willing to work hard and dedicate themselves to learning the material should not attend this university. In order to succeed at any university, a person needs to have the motivation to the desire to succeed. Florida Atlantic University taught me how to manage my time, work in a group setting and gave me the information I needed in order to succeed in the field of Social Work. Again, any person not willing to go above and beyond to succeed should not apply or attend Florida Atlantic University.

Some one who wants intimate campus & relationship with faculty/advisors. Someone who is looking for strong university family/identity/spirit...

The type of person who shouldn't attend this school is someone looking for a true full-time college experience. This is a commuter school, not a traditional school with a campus lifestyle or a "college town" feel - like UF or FSU. Most of the students are older, go to school part time, or go at night. There isn't any school spirit, so if someone is looking for that, they should attend one of the schools in Miami, Gainesville, or Tallahassee.

Some one who slacks off really wont last in this school especially someone who is doing a field that requires a lot of studying. Another person who shouldn't attend this school is someone who isnt good at math. It is hard to try to pass without studying in most of their classes. Another person who shouldn't attend this school is someone attending college to just party because they wont last long at this school they will get kicked out for bad grades.

There is no one that shouldn't attend this school. Anyone who has a passion to succession and who is willing to do the work can attend.

They help those who need help and anyone that wants a bright future can attend.

A person who won't put their effort into studying or doing homework should not go to school. For every credit hour a student have to put an hour each day in order to pass your class. Its pointless to watse time and money if effort will not be put into studies.

If you dont like to arrive to school on time it makes it hard to find parking in the morning. It sometimes took me 20 to 30 minutes to find parking.

Individuals who need to quickly get through their program but are not able to participate in majority ground based classes should not attend this school.

There is no "set" person that should not attend Florida Atlantic. It is a university that is open to all personalities, races, nationalities, and so forth.

Since Florida Atlantic University is mostly a commuter school you must be motivated to go to all classes. I've found that many teachers at FAU take attendance daily, making it vital to always attend class.

I cannot think of anybody who would be unwelcome on this campus. It embraces diversity and the ADA accessibility is strictly enforced. While there is not a large gay population on campus, there are few if any obstacles to being fully out on campus as I am.

Florida Atlantic University is a great school. I would not recommend this school to someone that is not ready to work for what they want. Also people that love to go out to big parties, we are in a small and sunny community so I would suggest you go somewhere else.

Someone who is not dedicated in achieveing their goals. College is not walk in the park, one has to be motivated to graduate.

I think that any kind of person can find a way to fit in because there are many different types of people here.

FAU is the type of school that has options for students of many interests and carreer goals. The programs and courses available are very promising in comparison with many schools I have been exposed to. The only issues I have is the lack of direction I recieved as an incoming transfer student. With many questions and no idea who had the answers you can imagine how stressful it was at times. I would not attend this school had I known the difficulty I would face from the beginning. It would not be wise to attend as a transfer student midsemester.

A person who shouldn't attend this school would be someone who doesn't like the Florida weather because Boca Raton is the ideal area for "Florida's" weather. Someone who wants a huge campus and a divison one AA football team.

A person who has no respect for others should not attend this unoversity, because everyone in Florida Atlantic University is treated with respect . Also, a person who is lazy, distrubtive and doesn't care about others, shouldn/t attend FLorida Atlantic University, beause that person will wasting money and wasting other people's time and as well as his/her.

Someone who is not focused and doesnt know what they want. I think you can learn alot from going to a university and find who you are. I believe you have to be ready for these things and have an idea of what you are looking for.

The majority of the students attending FAU are commuters, which means they come to class, and then go back home. Most students do not really get involved. So students interested in making friends, experiencing the actual college life of late-group studies, partying hard on the weekend should not attend this school.

Likes good weather and being challenged academically.

The Honors College of Florida Atlantic University is not a place for people who are not driven and not willing to work hard for their degree. This is a college that demands excellence and hard work, and those who are not willing to do their best to meet such expectations should not waste their time im this program.

Anyone who is easily distracted by outside forces, anyone who is not open to listen to exterme different opinions from thier own.

If you are looking for the big time party school this isn't it.

Any one who hinders another student or comtemplates harm to another student or person should not attend FAU.

Someone who is looking to attend a big university.

I feel that anyone who really likes an extremely competitve athletics at schools and the comrodory that accompanies it shouldnt attend this school at the moment, however i feel that over the next few years our teams and school spirit will grow with the addition of our new sports facilities for our underated teams. Other than than I believe FAU can really be a fit for anyone willing to explore new horizions.
