Florida State University Top Questions

For certian communities withing the campus at FSU. It is a very small representation of the campus and the student body.

to an extent

Not in the least! Most of the people i went to classes with (i graduated undergrad in 2007) hardly ever partied or got drunk all of the time. We have fun, we have great concerts and speeches and comedy acts and circuses come to campus, but i think that we know how to have a good time AND get to class and make the grade!

This is not accurate. There are many people that got into UF and chose FSU. Also, the academics of FSU are right up there with UF.

Absolutely not

1. At every university there are going to be students who drink and students who don't drink. 2. Both are great universities that excel in completely different aspects. While it's fun to have a rivalry, I would not say that one excels the other overall academically. 3. While some of the liberal arts classes aren't as difficult as most, once you get in to your major, things definitely change.

Pretty much. Not all the time though, there are some very down to earth people here at FSU

Well this is about a party town. But what college town isn't? and FSU students are just as good of students as any in the nation.

Yes and no. There are a lot of party goers on campus, but there are (a few) people who are more... academically minded.

The stereotype about FSU students being the ones who couldn't get into UF isn't true. We just aren't stuck up and rude enough to tell everyone how great our school is. FSU has the 5th best music program of public institutions in the US. Our magnet lab is world renowned. Our football coach, Bobby Bowden, has the most wins. Our alumni include people from Burt Reynolds to Richards SImmons. The first woman to ever win a pulitzer prize in music graduated from FSU. There are so many good things here that no one knows about because we're not arrogant and boastful.
