Describe the students at Florida State University.

Cinthia

My classmates for the most part seem friendly and attentive.

Kristin

Many of the students at FSU are involved on campus. Tutoring and community service is really big on campus. Many students work to pay for college and almost everyone receives some sort of financial aid.

robert

Everyone is friendly and excited about success. They are very smart and informed. They love to party and have fun, and are always very involved with the campus. Students love to study together and go out on the weekends.

Kaitlyn

Students on campus are very relaxed, I have not heard of or seen any types of discrimination anywhere on campus, but FSU is very diverse with people of all races, religions, ethnicities, sexual orientations, etc. Most students are from different cities and towns within Florida but come from all backgrounds. Most students wear whatever they feel comfortable into class that's suitable for the weather, it rains a lot so it really just depends on the day. There are not many cliques that I have noticed, everyone just hangs out with friends, and make new friends in classes.

Amanda

The students at my school may not be as exposed to many varying cultures, as the students from where I am from are. That was the biggest shock to me, to have many obvious differences between different cultures and races be pointed out and questioned. As a hispanic student, I have experienced these questions and faces of reactions several times

Kristin

The students are mostly respectful and friendly at FSU. I have had a few experiences with fraternities in which they were not as respectful or well-mannered. I do not think anyone would feel out of place at FSU because it has a place for everyone. Even though everyone gets wrapped up with football during the season, people who do not enjoy football can still fit in. In the dining hall I go to, everyone interacts with each other and we all know each other. Most of the students are either from South Florida or from Jacksonville, FL.

Halsey

My experiences have been positive with the student organizations on campus. They are respectful to you if you are respectful to them. I feel that the student body offers a diversity that makes all students feel like they belong. Students typically wear jeans and a t shirt to class on normal days, but people can be seen in dressier clothes for the business school. Students tend to stick to their groups. Most of the students are from the different areas of Florida, but low out of state tuition also means there are many people from out ofo state.

Kristen

My classmates are very diverse. Most students are a part of school organizations. There are many opportunities for classmates to become advocates but taking action on campus. Mostly everyone has a group they fit it whether it is to become a human rights advocate or even a computer game user. There are many opportunities for classmates to meet each other.

Catalina

Most students at Florida State are hard-working individuals. There are students from many ethnicities, though most come from white middle-class families. The university has so many students that no student should ever feel out of place here. There are organizations directed for any idea you can think of. Students are very active members and most are involved in at least two organizations on campus. Some of the biggest organizations are politically-based and there are many debates on campus. Most students plan on attending graduate school and work very hard toward that goal.

Lauren

Every kind of person goes to FSU. There are college republicans and college democrats. There are human vs zombie games every semester, and it isn't strange to find students toting nerf guns wearing arm bands in your classes. Some students dress nicely, some wear jeans and a t-shirt, and some roll out of bed in their pajamas - it's a big mixture of all kinds of people at FSU.
