You can actually learn and challenge yourself at FAU—if you actually try; or you can take the easy teachers (who will give you all A's) but you won't learn anything, and it will show. The university does not encourage or put an emphasis on doing an internship (mistake). You have to want to succeed, nobody will push you, but all the material is there. Also, keep in mind that tuition is really cheap, which is great when you're out. The biggest problem will be that nobody outside of FL will know FAU. You gotta prove yourself every time. It's not a bad school though, but it's not great. Student body is friendly. There's also a lot of tutors and grad students that are willing to help you to improve your grades.
