Long Island University is very Diverse.
The attractions around the school are beautiful.
The school is very prestigious.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Independence is the key. Long Island University is in the middle of Brooklyn. You are by yourself in the middle of the city. You have to learn to do things by yourself. In college you really cant count on a lot of people because at the end of the day everyone has there own profession they want to pursue. No one cares for you. You have to be strong on your own. There are many fun activities that the school holds which allows you to branch out and meet new people. Getting involved in a lot of clubs is something you should want to do. Again this allows you to have something to do on campus and get to know others as well. Sitting in your room will not allow you to enjoy the school. Try to have fun because you only get to live this life once.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Overall LIU is known for there academics. Everything is competitive which is a good thing because it forces you to work hard to become what you want to do. Your going to see a lot of people slack off but do your best and try to not to mingle with those types of people. All the professors are very understanding. Visiting your professors during office hours is something you should definitely do. It lets the professor know that you are very serious and you have interest in there course. The professors don't want to hear that you have other courses and that's why you couldn't complete there assignment. Overall academically LIU is very good.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The Dorm Life is very exciting. Since LIU is more of a commuter school you tend to form a better bond with people that live on campus. Your basically on your own. You do what you want to do when you want to do it. Ofcourse there are basic rules that need to be followed but overalll its fun. You can spend the night at your friends room if you want, you can choose to invite your family members to sleep over and you ca also have day guests.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
There are some things that I enjoy and there are somethings I don't enjoy. It all depends on the kind of eater you are. They tend to serve a lot of tilapia which I'm not too fond of. There's an omelet station, cold sandwich station and so much more. There's also subway and places like the Grind and Luntey where you can order wings, burgers and purchase candy.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are so many things to do on campus like the activities that the clubs organize. There are fashion shows, homecoming week, and last but not least the parties which i know everyone wants to attend. It's just a chance to ease your pain from all the work you have been bombarded with.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Overall a lot of people love the school. You meet so many new people, you explore the city life and just have fun. This is the time to let loose and live life before you settle down, have kids etc.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Next to the bookstore on campus there are benches that the fraternities and sororities tend to sit on. Subway is usually a place people like to hang out and talk while they wait for there next class to start.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
I guarantee you there is a club for every student to join and grow to love
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are so many clubs such as Student Government, African Club, Pep Squad, dance team and so much more. Student Government usually plans more activities for the students to attend and just have a good time while in school. The school also holds breast cancer walks.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Greek life is like entertainment. You watch them stroll through campus and that actually motivates you to join one.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
In order to come on campus you must show ID so there is now way a stranger is allowed on campus. In order to come into the dorms you have to swipe which I would say is excellent. The security guards are very cautious about everyone.
