It was a positive and a lively experience.

Tips: I got to experience a lot more independence and room for growth than I had before. The people and the professors make it a very interesting environment and I am grateful for the opportunities I have been represented with even though finding a job or immigrating is a big challenge. Overall I am satisfied with the course, college and country.

It’s a good and moderate university.

Tips: It's a good university that gives a good life to students and helps in culture fest related to our Indian culture. It is safe and secure to live and I think scholarships are also available if we apply then we get them, and I'm satisfied but the tuition fee is a little bit higher than I guessed.

A good university but not the best

Tips: It's difficult to manage everything. It feels overwhelming but by time you'll eventually get used to it. No scholarships are provided here mind that and Florida is really costly when it comes to renting food or cabs. You need to be really fast while registering for classes. They'll open it even before you get a visa make sure to enroll.

Likes (Safety): The crime rate is less here. People around are good and the communities we live in are very safe. The university is diverse and police are always there to help o...

Good cultural change to experience but the university is not up to the mark.

Tips: We need to have a good skill set to achieve success. We have to maintain confidence within ourselves in any situation and also be strong to achieve something in our life. It's good to live here if we have courage to survive. I’ve experienced a cultural change and it turned out to be good for me. There are scholarships for that we need to qualify some set of eligibility criteria like good GPA and have good skills. Overall, I’m not satisfied with this university.

It’s a decent university and you can enjoy with studies.

Tips: I've experienced a little bit of cultural tradition change and it's good to feel a different vibe. And I didn't get any scholarships right now but I will get scholarships with my confidence. Coming to university it's okay but not worth the money I've spent on this university. Also the course is good and the country is better to live here.

The university and faculty people are very friendly.

Tips: The culture here is very easy to adapt and you don’t find any discrimination. Also not hard to get along with others. Here there are no scholarships for the new people . The professors are highly talented and helpful. They are ready to help whenever you need them and they will try to think out of the box.

Likes (Safety): It’s very safe over here in Boca Raton the crime rate is very low from my personal experience till now I haven’t come across any crimes like theft. We will have transport till 10 pm except on th...

The university has a great faculty, transportation facilities are excellent.

Tips: Students should know that there are no scholarships for international students and if you look at the academics, I'm pursuing my Masters in Computer Science. The syllabus is obviously updated but you should give more time prepping yourself and you should not rely on classes or professors only. Overall, the University is good.

Likes (Public transportation): If you choose living in Boca Raton, Delray, Hollywood etc. You may find public transportation either bus or train. And fare lies between 2$ to 5$. I say it's affordable. Us...

Big cities with lots of opportunities.

Tips: FAU is similar to every PG college in the US when it comes to academics, but the city you will live in is a very happening place and lots of foreigners are there, unlike other Indian cities. The city is big and you will not need to worry about part-time jobs.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): FAU is very diverse in the students, as they are coming from different countries. Having students from different countries would improve our skills and also help the students to overcome their fear of interacting with new people.
