Someone who is interested in Greek life and wants a large party school. Or if they are interested in film or animation. Otherwise, I woudn't recommend it.

Kelsey

I would like to say that anyone could thrive at Florida State University and have the same welcoming and happy environment I experienced, however the kind of person to attend FSU should be a confident person. Students at Florida State should be confident in their minds, bodies, and environment in order to have the complete learning experience. This confidence will push and enable students to make connections in the academic and social worlds, and at the end of the day become well rounded, productive individuals.

Florida State University attracts a wide array of students ranging from aspiring physicians to top tier athletes. This is what I love about FSU: the diversity and wealth of social interactions. Not once did I ever feel out of place or excluded. Growing up being a first generation Asian American in Florida, you often find yourself surrounded by different cultures and ethnicities. Coming to FSU, I found myself surrounded by welcoming students, faculty, and staff. "Artes, Vires, Mores" is inscribed within our seal and translates to strength, skill, and character. I believe those words resonate within each of us.

Florida State seems to be a prototypical college experience, and in that regard, I feel that any student that is interested in attaining a quality education should consider attending.

Mark

Self motivation, self-preservation are key to succeeding in this college. The more semesters I spend here the more obvious it becomes. For example, One of my friends is a mathematician and the other a business major. For those of you that can identify the differences in their course load you can appreciate the vast differences in their academic lives. The business major friend of mine goes out almost every weekend, the mathematician studies on the weekends. I'm sure that isn't the case for all business majors but it shows the separation of social balances on the campus.
