Whassup yall, well my name is Precious and I'm a senior from Jacksonville, Florida. I just found out a couple of weeks ago I've been accepted to FAMU and also UCF for the Fall 2008 term. I'm pretty sure I'll be going to FAMU though since I've been wanting to go to FAM since 4th grade and my momma wants me to go there too. But first can yall jus tell me everything I need to know about FAMU (good and bad) especially about the dorms (which i heard was nasty), the School of Business and Industry (I want to major in accounting), and the sororities. OH YEA!! and about not bein able to drive first year (Is that as bad as it sounds....cuz it sounds real bad).

FAMU and UCF are very good institutions. I think it really depends on your expectations. I think with most HBCUs, the social life is probably more interesting compared to traditional universities. However, some traditional universities are good in terms of social life. Coincidentally, after I finished at TSU, I went to school at UCF. It was a different experience compared to TN State, but I enjoyed it and obtained a good education. I recommend visiting each university to get a feel for the academics and social life. Once you visit, you will definitely know in your heart, which to choose. Good Luck!

Well if you havent already you should look in the FAMU yard posts. My best friend goes to FAMU when I went to visit him they were having major issues with their accreditation (sp) which I would look at if I were you...and at the same time if you qualify for the Bright Futures scholarship they are very unstable in distributing the funds recieved from the scholarship effectively and if you are not persistent with the office you will prolly be in trouble ( that happened to a friend of mine). The good side I can tell you from first hand there is a party almost EVERY NIGHT like od i thought they were exaggerating but its true and FSU is very close so it only enhances the social scene but thats pretty much it.
