" FDU is overall a good university. It does need to improve the facilities and support for international students though. In terms of my major, the university provides good resources and the professors are respected professionals in the field. "

" Wouldn't recommend for a student interested in the Arts. A lot of "intro to" and fine arts opportunities but not many in depth or specific art career courses. I did not feel my major was respected within the community. I did not find career services, financial services, or academic services to be helpful or even particularly friendly. However, many of the arts and communication professors were kind and encouraging. I do not feel the curriculum for Graphic Design majors prepared me for real world expectations. I am currently attending and Arts University as a graduate student and feel extremely behind my collogues. "

" Still a senior but overall very much enjoyed my college experience. FDU is definitely a bit pricey but would recommend for those near the area/looking for a very scenic and peaceful school and can afford it. "

" Fairleigh Dickinson is what you make it. I go to the Florham Campus which has about 3,500 students and is in Madison, New Jersey. As a finance major, it is obvious that the school is focused on wealth management. The placement & outreach office is constantly sending out potential internships to local wealth management firms. On the social side, the small campus size makes campus life boring. Do not expect tons of events on campus or parties off campus. "
