Florida Southern College is exactly what I needed. I feel motivated and encouraged in the classroom. The students are friendly and I feel like I really belong here. The food in the caf is average, but they provide many diverse options including those for vegan and gluten free students. Overall, I feel welcome and wanted.
I think Florida Southern College is a great school. I want to study Marine Biology here because everything really looks nice and all the students look academically active. The campus is huge and after I graduate high school in 4 years I will definitly want to still come to Florida Southern College.
FSC is a beautiful, comfortable place with its flaws, of course. Everyone has flaws, but that's what makes them special: the crazy mix of perfect and not-so-perfect traits. That's how it is here. It's a living being that grows and learns and is trying to find its place in the world just like all the 18-22 year olds that it houses. FSC in itself is a student, helping those around it and just figuring out life. And I love it. Why not be at a school that grows and cares just as much as you do?
Florida Southern is a great school. However, I wouldn't recommend going if you don't have a solid way to fund the education. 97% of students receive financial aid, however everything increases a ridiculous amount in price every year. By the end of your four years, you will end up paying more each year you attend. Other than that and the fact that Greek life is a little too big on campus, I would say it's a pretty great college. Perfect for those wanting a small college scene.

In my college experiemce I have learned more about myself than what I did inside the classroom. I have taken chances and am slowly starting to find out how I can be successful even though it had a rocky start. I believe that college, while it is time to set your life plan, is also a time to explore make mistakes and grow from them. Although my exeperience has not been that of a dream college I am slowly learning how to branch out and look for what I need to do on my own to make a college experience that fits what I want from college as well as provides a place that I am happy and that I can succeed both personally and academically.
Florida Southern College is well know for its beautiful campus, and small class size.
It's close to home, yet still far enough way. It's located in the heart of Florida so we can easily get to Tampa or Orlando.
I love the fact that the campus always seems to be "giving you a hug," that everyone is so friendly, and the fact that since it is a small school, you aren't just another number, you can actually build great relationships with your professors.
Someone who is looking for a small school where you know everyone.
The teachers become your collegues as you go along through your classes.
It doesn't have a football team.
Wonderfullly diversed and great about sharing cultural differences.
One who doesn't want to get involved. There are many activities, intramurals, greek life to keep one busy.
What i wanted out of life, as opposed to wanted to do with my degree
I think the only thing that is frustrating is the business office seems to be a bit difficult every now and then but besides that everything seems perfect.
Florida Southern College is a school that is continually growing and becoming more business-minded and practical.
