Florida State University Top Questions

Not in my eyes. The stereotype that we are a party school especially. Most students do attend a party at some point in time, but many people make it sound like it occurs every week . Definitely not the case. It really depends on who you decide to surround yourself with and the decisions you make. Not everyone is going to force you to drink, and you don't need to attend every party. College is definitely not high school, you don't need to do anything risky to be cool. Just be yourself and help throw away the stereotypes. :)

There is no stereotype at Florida State. There is a place for everyone here. FSU is a place where you can find your niche no matter what kind of person you are . There are all kinds of clubs and organizations that you can join to find your home away from home. One of the reasons I chose FSU was because there was no stereotype. I was able to come to school here and make friends with people who are most like me by going to class, joining a sorority and becoming more involved with campus. Florida State is my home away from home.

In a word, YES! FSU, while hiding it better than UF, exudes crapulence, with drunken and half-naked students to be found on any night of the week. Additionally, while exceptions are to be found, the typical FSU student is the model of stupidity, showing no regard for learning or anything outside of drinking, partying, and getting out with a business degree the school will hand out to anyone who can drag themselves to class, hangover or not.

Yes, the student body at Florida State University is second to none.

I myself have struggled with this, but not all Florida State students are party animals. Some only go out one night a week and they study regularly. It is really what you want it to be is how it will be. You get out of it what you put into it.

Mostly

Not at all.

yes

I can't say that this stereotype applies to everyone, but I've always been a firm believer in the fact that stereotypes are created for a reason. While not everyone parties hard, a lot of the students here at FSU know how, where, and when to have a good time.

No, especially now that acceptance standards have gone up dramatically.
