If a stable environment, a quality education and actual understanding of computer science & engineering is what you want DO NOT ATTEND FLORIDA ATLANTIC UNIVERSIY aka FAU aka find another university aka f*%k all undergrads.

From others, none in my major, I understand that not everyone had such a shockingly horrible experience as I but my own experience is ultimately the only thing I can go by.

I transferred to FAU from out of state with a 3.67 to complete what I thought would be my last year and graduate but it turned out one cannot graduate from FAU unless one will lie and cheat and hand in tests and homework that other students and PROFESSORS supply.

EX: Tried to get help for my senior level stat class from the professor who says, ‘why do you need help? Have you not gotten the tests and homework?”

I tried to find a math lab or other resources from the engineering and math departments and got the same response,

Why do you need an open lab? Get the tests and homework.

Insistence on a lab or tutor revealed the math department didn’t actually know when or where there were labs but that there were labs. The one lab that was finally located was helpful for the first hour, then the BAND (horns, sax) started practicing IN THE SAME ROOM at THE SAME TIME!! Well not exactly the SAME room, there was a removable wall partition that was only a FOOT shy of the ceiling.

Nobody there could understand why I had a problem cheating or more precisely NOT LEARNING; not the transfer student coordinator, not the professors, not the peers in my classes, not the department head, not Lombardo the ombudsman, not the advisor, not the state government, not the accreditation board. SICKENING.

Existence there was a nightmare-ish catch-22.

Have to take care of the administrative issue so I’ll have my room at the student apartments and if I take care of the administrative issue I will miss my physics class (an actual class with teaching and learning) and if I miss physics it will affect my grades and if my grades are affected I’ll loose my scholarship and if I loose my scholarship I won’t have a room at the student apartments and if I don’t take care of the administrative issue I won’t have a room.

Alas refusal to cheat by photo copying homework and tests and LITERALLY just scratching a line thru someone else’s name and writing my own below combined with the administrative chaos resulted in a GPA far below the 3.6 needed to keep my scholarship.

I heard about FAU after interning at IBM in Ft. Lauderdale where there were many working toward graduate and doctorate degrees at the school. Right at the end of that summer internship and a week before classes stared back up (no at FAU) my house burned down and I ended up moving 5 times just that one semester which resulted in less than a 1/2 % drop in my GPA that semester. On the other hand a full out of state tuition scholarship to FAU plus other financial incentives resulted in a 75% decrees.

That's really sad to hear. My friends from this college are happy about education here. A lot of students use help from professionals. For hnd assignment help, they navigate to this website and buy all they needed with high quality.

Very sad of course. I also do not have the best college memories. The only useful thing was that I learned to play poker. Now I often play at Hypercasino and thanks to my skills I often win
