FAU is a school to where it boils down to the students deciding their own destiny. FAU's administration could care less about you and that is a sad reality. Its very difficult to work for the university since its very selective for no reason.

Theres things to be involved with on campus but its not enough. The student life at FAU is weak compared to other colleges. Student life has started to improve but unless the students put more effort into it, it will continue to be below the bar.

Academics are pretty weak too. All your classes are just tests, online homework and bs assignments. The sad part about FAU is that its hard to make connections to anything here since important people rarely come to the college. Not to say that its impossible to make connections, but it definitely takes a big effort.

FAU is bad at sports but the school spirit is worse. Then again its hard when the FAU teams barely try and theres no disipline in them. The Football team speaks for itself, bball is slowly getting better but not there yet, Baseball is bad again, I could go on.

Boca is a pretty lame city but theres life in the surrounding cities. Its tough for those who can't travel or know the right people. Most people who go here always look to go away on weekends since nobody likes being here.

Overall, FAU is a school with potential, but only as much potential as the students they get. Its a student ran university outside of facility. The students create the experience unlike the university normally doing more of the work.

responseWhat? The baseball team isn't "bad again" … they just won the conference championship? And the school spirit is "worse" than the sports? What? Do you even really go here? I doubt it.
