Florida Memorial University is a great l school with excellent faculty and staff member from the professors to the grounds men. The campus is small in size but a great atmosphere to grow up in. The classes are small and that one on one time with professors for extra guidance is excellent to have.
The University has grown since my Freshman year, rather than practicing traditions they are creating them. The campus is very diverse so you can meet different people and there is something for everyone to come together and do at all times from sports, Greek life to musicals.
Overall my experience at FMU has been awesome for me and going into my Junior year still and honor student and starting basketball player has been and will continue to be great. I rate FMU an AMAZING 5!
Review Florida Memorial University
My experience as a college senior at Florida Memorial University is bittersweet. The staff really treat you like you're at home, easy to adjust! By it's a diversity school, you get to meet other people and become accustomed to their beliefs. If I could change anything it would be to make the dorms co-ed.
My experience here is great! Everyone is friendly and there's a lot of help on campus. The professors are nice and helps you out if you don't understand anything. They also make sure everyone participates in class activities, so they won't feel left out.
