The lack of efficient and strategic marketing of the programs the campus has to offer the students.

If you're a commuter, it's tough to find parking.

Although many common places such as the supermarket and bank are in a close proximity to Florida Gulf Coast University, the night life is lacking. There is not much for students to do for entertainment outside of school. Also, the city is primary a retirement city, so there are not too many young people to meet, other than school affairs.

I think the worst thing about my school is not having more overhangs for the sidewalks because it rains so much in Florida.

FGCU is a good school, but it is still pretty new. When it was first built, they didn't expect it to grow as much as it has, so the parking and housing are both limited. There is also a lack of majors. But they are adding alot of new stuff and it will be much better in a couple of years.

When help is needed from the administration, they give you the run around. I tried to get help to set up a semester abroad and was never assisted. More importantly, when I asked for help in choosing a major from my advisor, she gave me the run around. In both situations, I went to numerous faculty asking for help and never received any.

There really isn't anything bad about this school.
