I'm considering applying to Fairleigh Dickinson University and I'm curious about the Metropolitan Campus in particular. How's the student life there? Are there unique programs or activities I should know about? Any first-hand experiences would be awesome!
While each student's experience may be different, I can share some general characteristics of life at Fairleigh Dickinson University's Metropolitan Campus. The campus sports an urban atmosphere located in Teaneck, New Jersey. This serves as a hub of opportunity because it's relatively close to New York City, providing you with access to a rich array of cultural and professional experiences.
The student life is quite inclusive and vibrant. While it's a commuter-friendly campus with many part-time students, there are still plenty of on-campus activities and clubs to get involved with, from academic organizations to intramural sports, cultural clubs, and more.
As for unique programs, FDU Metropolitian Campus has a nationally-recognized International School of Hospitality, Sports, and Tourism Management offering degrees in Sports Administration and Hospitality and Tourism Management, among others. There's also a strong Nursing program and a renowned School of Pharmacy.
Remember, everyone's experience is unique, and the best way to truly gauge the vibe of a campus is to visit in-person if you have the opportunity to do so, or virtually attending a student-led campus tour or open house event could be very helpful too. You can reach out to current students or admissions to further inquire about student life at FDU Metropolitan Campus.
