Florida Institute of Technology Reviews
Campus life is pretty fun if you engage yourself in it! Definitely a lot of opportunities to research if you're into that. The campus is only a 5-10 minute drive from the beach which is really nice! Security is pretty good, even walking back from a party at 4am, you'll see security everywhere doing there patrols, which makes you feel pretty safe. The campus is also extremely well lit, so no dark spots where anything shady can happen. The quad dorm halls are pretty trash, but everywhere else is great. The food at PDH is always just high calorie garbage, very rarely are the meals good. Looking forward to cooking in my apartment next year lol.
On-campus, they do a great job of announcing events. Almost every week, there's an event that caters to something the student body needs. They gave out sleep kits on finals and even had puppies from the shelter to play with.
The botanical garden on campus is gorgeous and always fun to explore, even at night!
Overall my experience at the school has been amazing. I've met a lot of new and interesting people, especially with all of the international students who attend the college as well. I know that I always can get help with my academics at the school when I need, and I've found a home.
