It is impossible to get an answer out of most of the faculty here. Throughout the application process, I was essentially on my own. Can't even get through to the office assistant! In the few instances that I have gotten a response, the answer was unhelpful, and almost like "why are you bothering me?" in nature. I've NEVER had another school treat me as rudely as at this school. My current university (I have a masters and was applying for another), as well as the other graduate schools I applied to were all friendly, helpful, and informative. Jul 18 2012 Physics

I had a professor call me an anti-semitic name and I tried to withdraw from the course but was not allowed to do so. The response was that because I "was one of them", I couldn't speak rationally about the topic we were discussing and the professor was only joking. May 05 2012 Accounting

If you are going to attend this school (online only) for a Masters in Forensic Accounting be prepared for the professors to not return your emails, phone calls or even grade in a timely fashion. There was only one week left of the semester in one of my courses and I still hadn't received feedback on papers that I submitted in week 8. Just be prepared to be extremely frustrated and know that no matter what you say, there will be nothing done about it. Dec 03 2009 Accounting

The department keeps students from finishing their degree and change their minds frequently on the reason the student can't graduate. The University is not helpful and always backs the department without even meeting with the students. In addition to not being reliable, the University has had several rapes that have occurred. One was even swept under the rug for 2 weeks by the school. If you want a place where you can get a quality education and feel safe, please Find Another University! Oct 09 2008 Psychology

Overall worst staff evr...couple of professors are average at classes others are useless...most of the professors are more in internal politics rather in education...even the student support staff is useless..they dont know a single thing..and they pretend that they know and then misguide us..i got lot of misguidance from this staff and had to go through lot because of that..just be aware if you are attending at fau...dont trust any of the staff..make sure to confirm with another person at same time..

The professors expect very little of their students. Most of the professors are old and keep recycling their old curriculum. There's almost nothing fresh. This MSW program is barely mediocre. If you truly want to learn, go elsewhere. If you want to graduate with an A and don't care about learning, go to FAU. Mar 21 2008 Social Work

May be it was the program, I have a masters in Economics and one in Finance from a different university and I did not like the curriculum or the staff attitude Jun 14 2007 Accounting

If you have a choice find another school. The lack of funding and politics within this school is just bad. I am a graduate student in my last year and just want to finish what I started. Within my my major I have had only Teaching Assistants as instructors. This is because there is no funding for Fulltime instructors... Hence you will be pretty much self taught. If I can steer anyone from the frustration this school has caused me... maybe my student loan debt for this unsatisfactory education can be justified. Sep 16 2005 Other

You get what you put in! FAU can be a great school or a crappy degree, but it's what you make of it. I have had success through partnering with professors and working very hard. Social life leaves a little to be desired due to commuter atmosphere. Mar 09 2005 Business - Management and Administration

Florida Atlantic University is corrupt; last year the president and his wife, and a school VP were involved in a felony. This year the film program director is under investigation for misuse of $6 million that he used to travel worldwide and rent a yacht. The director of another graduate program has repeatedly sexually harassed a female student. A master's course was taught by a master's student which is a breach of all accreditation regulations. The school has demonstrated corruption, a lack of ethics, and failure to change. Run, don't walk, away from this school, and Find Another University. Take it from someone who has seen it all.

Nothing but good experiences with faculty - the quality of teaching and research exceeded my expectations! Students are also given opportunities and support in publishing and conference participation. It has been challenging but very rewarding! Sep 09 2002 Public Policy
