Review of Fairleigh Dickinson University-Florham Campus
from Old Bridge, NJ
Describe your college in three sentences.
FDU is a great school and I absolutely love it here. Classes are within walking distance and my professors are always helpful. There are a decent amount of campus events going on all the time so it is easy to get involved!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Although the price may scare you away, they are great at giving major scholarships!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
I've had my fair share of easy courses, but they are always balanced out with my tougher courses. It's a good mixture where you don't want to give up, but you have to push yourself.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I'm a freshman currently, and I love it. My room is just the right size for me and my roommate. The air and heat work great. They spray for bugs every time we go home and I've never had a problem. I'm not a big fan of communal bathrooms but they are always clean.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
In one phrase: It could be worse. The food isn't terrible, you just have to get creative. The caf can get boring sometimes, but theres always the Grill which has AMAZING pizza! There are a lot of choices at the caf usually, I'm just picky.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Besides getting involved in clubs on campus, there's a decent amount to do. The town of Madison is only a 25 minute walk from campus and you can go to the movies, ice cream or Stop and Shop there. A club, NSE, sponsors off campus events about once a month. We also just got an on campus Red-Box so you can rent a movie without even leaving campus!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Yes it can be pricey to go here, but I absolutely love it. The campus is absolutely beautiful I couldn't want to go anywhere else.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is literally a club for everything here. I joined 5 my first semester and actually had to quit a few because there are so many events. There is something for everyone!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Greek life is HUGE here so if you plan on rushing, you won't be disappointed! But if you don't want to rush, you won't feel left out either!
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Public safety is always driving around 24/7 and are available to call 24/7 as well.
