US News ranked it 110th among National Universities, so that is not one of the top schools, but it is respectable and you can get a good education there if you work hard. Miami U and U of FL are ranked about 50th.
It is quite large - the Freshman class is over 6000 kids, so you can expect to have some really big classes when you start. But a lot of kids fail out, so as you get to higher levels the classes will be smaller. It is very cheap to go there if you are a Florida resident.

It is a decent school, though not the best in Florida. University of Florida and University of Miami are better if you want to go to a Florida school. Other than that it is decent and it has a good Liberal Arts program.

FSU is comparable to Michigan State. I went to varsity interior the midwest as an undergraduate. i'm very conscious of the huge 10 faculties. I had friends from Ohio and Michigan and Indiana. i understand the midwest. that is rather chilly. FSU is interior the "Deep South" in Tallahassee in North FL close to Georgia. So it rather is a southern city with a "accomplice" historic previous. yet Tallahassee is principally a college city, so the youngsters are different on campus. a impressive style of the undergraduate majors are rigorous and require a impressive style of self-discipline. On weekends the night existence is primary of the college scene at a soccer college - a impressive style of partying. The "Cowgirls" of FSU have been thrust into the spotlight interior the previous (e.g. Jenn Sterger). The undergraduates who have been born and raised in Florida tend to love FSU the main. without-of-state scholars there's a mixture. some at the instant can't evolve to the small college city interior the Deep South. Others thrive. It rather varies. customarily, it rather is a college for the "youthful human beings." i became there as a graduate pupil and lots older on a similar time as working finished-time. i got here upon that FSU seems to extra healthful maximum properly socially with those a while 19-24. previous that that is style of placing apart for older graduate scholars. i might propose going there for a grasp's degree yet no longer the undergraduate years. Out-of-state training is expensive. yet graduate scholars get lots extra ideal financial help in the event that they qualify. Plus in case you flow right into a grasp's degree and discover which you do in comparison to Tallahassee then the grasp's curriculum could be finished promptly in a million.5-2 years. The in-state universities could be interesting for Florida in graduate college nonetheless. i might propose using to UF, FSU, USF, and Miami for a grasp's degree once you're older. even nonetheless it rather is superb to stay in-state for undergraduate years to keep money.
