Hey there, I'm a high school junior trying to widen my college search. One place I'm considering is Tallahassee, FL. Just wanted to ask if anyone could tell me about the colleges there, their niche, what they're known for, etc?
Sure, I can certainly help you with that. There are several colleges in Tallahassee, Florida, that you may want to consider:
1. Florida State University (FSU): FSU is a large, public research institution that offers a broad variety of programs. It's especially recognized for its programs in Business, Engineering, and Criminal Justice. The University upholds a strong commitment to fostering undergraduate research as well. FSU also tends to have very spirited school pride especially when it comes to their sports.
2. Tallahassee Community College (TCC): TCC is a public two-year college offering associate degrees. TCC is recognized for its strong nursing, criminal justice, and business programs. Many students also transfer to FSU or FAMU after two years at TCC.
3. Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU): FAMU is a public, historically black university offering a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs. It's particularly known for its pharmacy, business, and journalism programs. It has a strong commitment to diversity and fostering leadership.
Each of these schools offers a unique and different college experience, so I would recommend researching each one to better gauge which institution might be a good fit according to what you are looking for in a college.
