The campus was easy to get to from Orlando. Signs were clear on where to park on arrival. The facilities itself were beautiful. Everyone was very helpful and went out of there way to help with questions. I m glad my daughter will be attending school here in the fall!
Nobody has ever had so much love and hatred for this place. It is wonderful and hideous at once. And it destroyed my spirit completely, twice.
To be blunt, however, higher education everywhere is quite sick. If you're undertaking it, you must stay focused on your goals and abandon your expectations.
If only I could give 0/5 rating, I would. The Tuition and Dorms both are expensive. The Dorms are in terrible condition infested with Ants and other creatures, Leaks, and Mold. The dorms most definitely are not safe to occupy in because of the unsanitary and health-inhibiting Conditions. $3,650 + for a dorm that is making you sick AND that you are sharing (not including the extra $1,600 for a REQUIRED meal plan) is just not worth it. That alone is over $5,000 you'd be paying to a school just to get sick. Be sure to do your research on ALL colleges and other things related for sure! (Such as dorms, books, tuition differential, per credit hour cost, professors, and all extra hidden fees.) The photos below were taken from one of the rooms inside of the four disgusting dormitories on the Boca Raton campus. Despite the school's poor attempt to "fix" the problem, the staff is ungodly and VERY rude; AND I refuse to support a university that one, doesn't care about their paying students, two about their health and/or treatment. When it's all about the money it shows and clearly their not about the red white and blue they're about the green. FAU #FindAnotherUniversity. It's preposterous!
I Really Love this place where they have the S.O.A.R Camp In here. I've stayed In the Dorms and meet friends and even i have a roommate and we bonding each other through friendship and boxing and other things! i really love it! then, I've work out at the recreation center and i Did boxing training with Paul "Rocko" Cecere and i've made Boxing videos with him. Paul's Major is Exercise Science & Health Promotion and His Fitness Philosophy is Exercise is a way to stimulate all aspects of life. Being healthy is achieving balance mentally, physically, and spiritually. Exercise should give satisfaction, make life easier, and give relief from the everyday obstacles that are placed in front of you.
words simply do not do justice to how abysmal this university is so hopefully the attached picture will help add another thousands words to illustrate what a cautionary dead end trap this place is... we've all heard the public sector stereotypes but for the student body to be as aware as we are of the cancerous environment that plagues this alleged place of higher learning is truly remarkable. just read the other reviews posted here about the experiences we've had with the various unbelievable staff; it's not just the faculty that are appalled by the administration however there's even a few bad apples from the teaching side now too it sounds like depending on what college you are taking your chances and tempting fate.... hate to be cliche, but stay away from here talented peoples -- the rumors are indeed sad but true about "Find Another University" :(
High quality training center. It has several learning fields and very relevant content. Still having trained professionals of good quality. The structure here is beautiful and new. It still has parking and work area for students.
My comments from yesterday are just gone?? I simply stated that there should be a way to rate 100% poor, because at this point "Poor to Fair" is rating this university too high.
This University has made its beliefs loud and clear with the way they handled "stomp on Jesus" lesson.
They took up the national mantle of religious intolerance that is sweeping this country with a class to teach Religious intolerance. How has it become ok to thrash Christianity and protect all other religious beliefs and ideals? That is not tolerance...you can't be 95% Tolerant...you either are or you are not.
One point that's been missed in all this...they got this from a text book!! Who is the author/publisher?
Quit apologizing and just admit your beliefs and intentions. Say we realize our beliefs may not be the majority and offended. We were wrong on how we handled a Student who pays to go here.
By the way, a Democratic Nation goes by the majority and does not bend for the few...my how this country...this University...has got it twisted.
RATING 100% POOR
Went here for 5 years, studied Computer Science and Spanish. Enjoyed my time at the school. Easy commute by Tri-Rail. Great gym, great cafeteria, and most importantly great education! All of my professors seemed very interested in my success and were willing to spend extra assisting me whenever I needed.
Beautiful campus despite PARKING. C'mon tuition isn't the cheapest and parking is such a hassle. They need more parking garages. Parking garages are a bit far too especially when you are walking in 100 degree weather. Overall, can't complain though because it is very clean and academically challenging. I would recommend getting your Associates degree before coming here.. GO OWLS!!!!!
Attended the Executive MBA and I must say that the classes are challenging and the educational component is very useful and up to date. I have applied much of the knowledge obtained and after 6 months of graduating I have obtained a far better position more geared towards what I wanted. The diversity factor is great, with colleagues from all over the world and different professions, increasing interprofessional learning.
The only downside to the program is that I would suggest a stronger vetting system since some people in the program should definitely not be there and some even graduated with little to no effort or interest.... It is upsetting since some of them really don't deserve the title and it only brings the credibility of my education down
