This school may have the worst reviews here and it doesnt surprise me. However, I cant believe how an administration could get involved in spamming this site in order to gain some positive points. When I heard about that, I didnt believe it. But, I went back and read them one by one. First how dozen positive comments show up. Second, all of the comments sound like advertisements written by people other than students. I understand the university is having too many financial trouble and faculty/student retention. However, that doesnt excuse the act of spamming. Moreover, the propagandists at FMU are shameless. They keep selling their diversity rhetoric even to students who know it all. Some students commented here about racism at FMU and I agree wholeheartedly. This school is mostly Christian (Baptists and born again) and about 50% of the student body is black. I am white but I have seen racism and discrimination at this school in more than one form and shape. The administration and the faculty of this school are mostly catholic so they discriminate against everyone who is not. If you show any sign of born again Christian, they will hate you as well. My friends grades are always low because she is outspoken. And, I know she is better than me and many others who receive continuously top grades. Why is that? In my dictionary, this kind of behavior shouldnt be tolerated in a school. Thats why I am leaving this place. CCU sounds like a good option but I will apply to other schools in the region as well.
