The campus is one of the largest in the state. It also has many different cultures and religions. So anyone would fill at home there.

But that isnt not all it has to offer. They are a great educational institution.

We cheer for our football players as they work hard on the field and off the field. Our quarterback, EJ Manuel, is one of our best players and an outstanding student earning his degree in Communications last fall.

We have free movies, a great gym that all students get membership to, and Landis Green. The movie theater on campus plays on average four different movies a week. The gym has every piece of equipment I could ever imagine should belong in a gym and then some. Of course it also has free classes. And Landis Green is where I am at right now. It is always filled with students playing frisbee or soccer or just talking. There is also WiFi so it's a great place to study.

Brianna

The professors at Florida State University truly care about the well being of their students and offer assistance and guidance if a student is struggling. Students are expected to manage their own time and are given the opportunities to do well on their own, but professors will always take the time to talk with a student or go over tests and problem areas.

Gabriella

FSU has the best school spirit. It is a beautiful University with great reviews and it is very well known. Students love it here and we cannot help but brag about how amazing out school is, the athletic program, and the academic program. Being a student at such a highly competitive school is something to proud of. We have the access to the best.

Catherine

What I brag about most is that I actually attend here. The school has so must prestige and is well known that everyone is generally jealous. The environment alone makes the school what it is. Famous. It’s the people that make up this place that give Florida State heart, spirit, kindness and power. I always say to my friends at home, that you may not see the points on our football board like the dear old Gators, but look at the people in the stands. We back our school 100 percent... In other words, you better "Fear the spear!"

Ellen

I have a lot of fun here. I like my classes a lot, the teachers are nice and accomodating, and the courses are not too rigorous. All my friends are absolutely amazing, and there is always something to do on or off of campus.

Jaquel

This school competes with best and has great pride and comaraderie.

Samantha

Beautiful campus, great students and advisors, access to most everything you need from Malls and Wal-mart to on-campus Starbucks and Chilis. I am in the Exploratory program figuring out exactly what I want to major in. FSU has 1 of the top Exploratory programs in the Nation. They have been very supportive in choosing classes, arranging tutors and giving advice. Their Exploratory program is a model used by many other Universities because of it's success. Dorms are a good size and come with elevated bed, desk, dresser and refridgerators. Nice gym facility, safe surroundings.

Matthew

The tradition and the football program are what FSU is most known for. I was just happy to be going to school with some of my best friends.

Tim

The amount of resources available and the ability to learn about anything.

Jared

I brag most about the school spirit and how much of a joy it always is around campus.

Rachel

I normally brag about the good mix of resources and school spirit. Both of these elements were very important to me when making a decision. If you need help, this school is more than willing to help and give you one on one attention. Also, it provides the great and spirited atmosphere of a big state college, providing a lot of diverse activities.

Marjulie

When it comes to FSU i have a lot to brag about. Not only is it one of the best schools to attend , but it is so legendary, and historic. Learning the history behind FSU contributes a lot in making you a true seminole. A part from the history, FSU focuses more on making the school, student- centered, which is why i believe it is a home away from home. FSU has programs where it is made easier for students to get involved around campus, for example Union Wednesday, a day where organizations unite and express cohesion.

Elora

My plans to study abroad. FSU has one of the best International Programs in the country. Students actually travel from all over the USA to study abroad with our program. There are more than 40 programs in a slew of countries, and there are many scholarships available to help subsidize the cost.

Rebecca

My main concerns are studying abroad and a large fan-base for football games. A huge influence on my college decision, Florida State fit both of these qualifications, having one of the best "International Studies" opportunities around, and although our football team somewhat struggled this past season, the fans were crazy and always had fun.

Zachary

School spirit

Melanie

The easiest thing to brag about is that I'm NOT a Gator at the University of Florida. More importantly, I always tell my friends how much fun it is to be a Seminole whether in class, at an athletic event, or simply any time being on campus.
