Major: Business - Management and Administration (This Major's Salary over time)
FSU has been a fairly decent experience for me so far. I'm currently a dual Business/English major, and I feel like both of those departments at this school have been competent at what they do and are easy to approach and work with. The quality of education is definitely what you put into it; especially the initial courses, where you could be one student in a lecture hall of about 300. The professor to TA ratio is also a bit lower than one might like, but both the TAs and the professors have always been easy to reach and I have always found them to be extremely helpful if I needed it. Classes also seem to become much smaller and more personal as one gets past the initial core requirements.

Campus life/night life is good. I'm from a rural area, so Tallahassee seems decent sized to me, but those who come from an area such as Miami will find it to be small. There is always something to do, however.

As a side note, be a little wary of the financial aid office. I had my Stafford loans cut in half about a month before I started here with no warning. It may be a rare occurrence, but I do know others who have had issues with that office at one time or another.
