Florida International University Top Questions

One of the best things about FIU is that despite that fact that we are a commuter school we still have a lot of spirit. Another thing that I love about our campus is the art all around us. We have the Robert Frost Art Museum, the exhibitions in the Green Library and all of the sculptures around the campus (UP) itself.

I love FIU. We need to improve parking. I hope our budget gets back to normal. FIU doesnt have too much pride but thats only because the majority of students commute.

I would make the professor more dependable, and make it easier to meet with advisor!

i love this school to death, getting so big i wish i could be here for years to come to see the final product. we have an amazing president

What I like most about FIU is that it is close to home. I love the fact that there are so many students because it gives you the opportunity of meeting a lot of diverse people. When I am on campus I am usualy in the library, studying. School pride could be improved. And my most memorable experience would be joining Alpha Kappa Psi. I have definitely learned and grown a lot. The most frequent student complaints is the inaccuracy and uncertatinty of the all major offices: College of Business advisors, Financial Aid, Parking & Transportation.

FIU administrative policies take way too much time to process. too bureaucratic...

The best thing about FIU is its diversity. One thing I wouldn't change is the students. The size of FIUin poulation is just right. People react in a way that pleases me when I say I go to FIU, it is a well known school in FL especially for it's Business program. I spend most of my time in the classrooms on campus. What college town? Fiu has a capable administration. There is not as much school pride as I wish there were. The biggest recent controversy on campus was the "cancellation" of summer classes. FIU has a very unusual policy about ducks. The 1st UM / FIU game. The most frequent student complaints are food and parking.

Everyone is very nice, and helpful.

The advising center at FIU is not too discripitive or helpful so you might want to avoid it and just fellow students for help. If your desperate and really want a formal opinion then go to the advising center. I WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE: Students should be told and aware of the variety of scholarships available. They should specify all the uses of a students' ID it can be a payment or your library card. They should specify and list all available tutoring centers beside the Learning Center, AAA tutoring service, and others. I was not aware of math tutoring in DM. Instead of wasting money on food check out GC for bake sales. Students should be told of participation and prizes, recently I took a survey in return for my opinion I was given a food coupon for any participating restaurante on campus.

The only best thing about FIU is that it is less expensive than other universities in Florida. Most of my friends and schoolmates think that if they have the money to go to other universities they will study in some other universities. Most complain I heard especially the freshmen and transfer students, FIU is only after for your money and they also mention that professors knows the material but just dont know how to reach students. There is no school pride fo rmost FIU students unless you are one of the fraternity members that goes to footbal games. "Football games, which FIU can't perfrom well and they spend time and money building new facilities for the football team. FIU should look at other sports that will make FIU known.
