Run as fast as you can from FiT! They are a RIPOFF!!! The closer you get to program completion, the more problems you will have. I took an "advanced" programming course (which was actually an undergrad course (most FiT grad courses are actually undertgrad courses everywhere else in the real world). In this course, even though my records showed a B, I received a D from the instructor. Appealed, and the university went with the instructor, so I got suspended for a year. Took the same course again thanks to the D… all I did was change the dates on my program headers, and got a B. Is it a miracle? I think not. They got double their money, which seems to be the only reason this program exists.

Now here is the REAL kicker. I am 3 hours away from graduation with this "Masters Degree", and they dismissed me! (Their policy is written in such a manner as to really give you no hope of readmission on appeal either.) Because of the B in the Java course! They came out of the blue and said I HAD to make an A in that Java course to stay in their program. What a smoking crock of crap this is! So, unless you want to end up like me, with 27 useless "graduate" hours and $30K of school loan debt…DO NOT GO TO FIT!!!!!

I was always intereset in technology and electronics. What university should I choose then?

When I was taking my exams and preparing my term paper, I had a voltage failure in the electrical panel and so somehow my hard drive burned out. I didn't make any backups and my manager didn't like it. I argued with him for a very long time, and I still had to find him on the Internet . If it wasn't for this site, I wouldn't have been able to restore the coursework.

It is equally important to understand such things in life as easy synchrony cards to get. I have never been interested in this topic before, but recently I found a site where information about this card was described in detail. I think you should read more about this, if you are interested. Anyway, I advise you to do this. Good luck.
