Florida Gulf Coast University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Justin

I wish I had known just how amazing this college was going to be! It is perfect, great atmosphere and great campus. I guess I wish I had known that there was a shopping mall not that far from campus. It makes living on campus and around campus very easy, also there are two apartment complexes that I wish I had known about before I visited so that I could have scheduled a visit. College Club Apartments is one of the popular student living options near FGCU

Dustin

I wish I would've had better time management skills, and proper studying skills. I've had a crash course since attending college, but it didn't take me that long to get a strong grip of it. With those set aside, I would've told myself to set soome money aside and save it! College is expensive!

Rhian

that major track course recommendations were just suggestions, not requiremnts

Joshua

Before I came to this school I knew almost everything about it, I do wish that I would have been told that their is not a whole lot to do for Freshmen that do not have cars. However, when FGCU does something for the students it is usually fun.

Caitlin

I wish I had known how much Greek life contributes to the overall campus experience here. We don't have a lot of people attend sports events on campus, and there isn't to much on campus or off campus to facilitate friendships as easy as it would be at a larger college. Joining a sorority on this campus helped me network with many like minded, ambitious girls, and I know that they will be my friends for life.

Chelsea

I wish I knew it would feel as if I were attending a community college because there isn't a whole lot going on. And I also wish I knew that in the students spare time all they do is party.

Andie

Before I began school at Florida Gulf Coast University, I wish that i'd known about the variety of clubs, organizations, and sports that I could be involved in. There are so many diverse activities that students can take part in starting as freshman and I just wish I was aware of them sooner.

Sophia

I knew everything i needed to know about the school before attending.

Samantha

I feel like I was given the right amount of information about the school.

Felicia

Nothing. It pretty much met up to what I expected!
