Is moving from Maryland to Miami beach florida for college, is it worth it?
Im really considering moving to miami florida for college, because there's a lot of modeling agencies i want to intern in and stuff. I don't wanna move to New york because when i visited my aunt last summer i so realized im not a Huge city person. i only like the idea of new York to get into the entertainment biz and to work for magazines. California is just to far away from my family but all the top notch business are out there so far :(

What Florida 4 year college/colleges are easy to get into

What Florida 4 year college/colleges are easy to get into?
Ok I averaged around a 2.7 or higher in high school (around the 2.6 range 1-3yr and straight 3.0s senior year). I have also jsut taken the ACTs for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I have been in community college for about 2 years, but have absolutely no credits because of dropping classes due to work. But now I am finally ready to actually enroll into school full time and make that my main focus so I can graduate. So I am looking to go to a university down in florida like FGCU, FAU, or FIU. And I really dont think I have a chance into any. Does anyone know what I have to do to get into these schools or have I already done enough? Any information is helpful and very appreciated.

FSU-I've never heard of anyone being turned down. GO GATORS!!!
Answer 3 :
any in the state of Florida, we welcome under achievers
Answer 4 :
FSU, UNF and all private schools. sounds terrible of me to say, but FIU will take anyone. I went to USF after turning down Princeton, UF, UM, stetson, UCF, FAU, NYU and GW ... and i definetly dont regret it. a good place to compare all of them is www.princetonreview.com GOOD LUCK!!!
Answer 5 :
Hello. From what I know about FAU, you probably don't have much of a shot without a really good standardized (ACT/SAT) score. FAU only accepts about ~50% of people who apply and since they're becoming a bigger school, they're being more selective -- much like UCF. I really don't know how you'd fare at FIU, although again it's worth a shot if you have a decent standardized test score. I do know that FGCU is really new (I believe less than 20 years old) and newer colleges usually want to expand so they'll take on students with lower-than-average scores. However, if nonoe of that works out for you, you can always continue with community college, get your Associate's, and basically walk into any college in Florida (FAU, UCF, FSU, UF). Florida has a weird system that way and it's funny because you have people absolutely killing themselves trying to get into UF and then other people who barely break 1000 on their SAT get accepted there. Anyway, good luck to you! Go Owls!

What is the better community college in Florida

What is the better community college in Florida?
I need to move away if I ever want to finish school, b/c there are too many distractions in my hometown for me to focus. I am considering Santa Fe in Gainesville, or somewhere in Tampa (haven't really looked into any of them). So if anyone could give me some info. on SFCC or some schools in Tampa I would appreciate it.

Answer 1 :
Check into St. Petersburg College. It is really nice and has a great reputation.
Answer 2 :
Hmm.. I know a ton of people that go to Sante Fe. Honestly, they only go there in hopes that if they do, it'll help them get into UF. More often than not, it doesn't. I'd probably look into a community college in Tampa. Let's be realistic. There's barely anything in Gainesville. It's practically desolate and you probably won't have too much fun unless you love hanging out at the local Wal-mart, lol. The Tampa community is more enjoyable. I'm sure you'd have lots of fun living there.

College in Florida to become a cop

College in Florida to become a cop?
I am thinking about becoming a cop. Are there any colleges in Florida for becoming a cop?
Higher Education (University +) - 2 Answers

Answer 1 :
**** the police.
Answer 2 :
Even if you get a relevant degree, there is no guarantee that any law enforcement agency will hire you - keep that in mind. There are about 35 schools in Florida that offer degree programs in such fields as Criminal Justice Studies, Criminalistics/Criminal Science, Law Enforcement Administration, or Police Science. Many are community colleges and that is a great place to start. Here is how you find one close to you: Go to collegeboard.com, and in its college search service enter public colleges for type of school, for location put a reasonable commute from your zip code, and for major search using the word "police." If you are serious, make sure that you take courses in computer forensics - even if you don't get hired to be on the street, there is a huge demand for this skill in law enforcement. Good luck - we need more educated and thoughtful peace officers.

Florida Southern College: Getting a bike or motorcycle

Florida Southern College: Getting a bike or motorcycle?
I'm going to be a freshman at florida southern college, i was wondering what the best option would be for the area: a vespa type scooter or a simple bicycle?
Motorcycles - 3 Answers

Answer 1 :
A bicycle is rather limited in speed and range. A scooter takes you further, faster, effortlessly. Not to mention a reasonable amount of lockable storage. A 150cc scooter is freeway legal so you can go visit the Keys or Everglades on weekends. A 150cc scooter can carry a female passenger on the pillion.
Answer 2 :
Simple bicycle, no gas, no insurance, no worries about reliability, good workout. NOW if you wanted to get an actual motorcycle and not some toy (Vespa) I would go with the REAL motorcycle.
Answer 3 :
LOL. Some good advice here (not). Ride a 150cc scooter to Key West? A FIVE HOUR DRIVE WITH REDNECKS IN PICKUPS TAILGATING YOU? Good luck with that. The driver's in SoFL are DANGEROUS. Save your $$$ for a car (with as many airbags as possible). DO NOT RIDE A MOTORCYCLE or SCOOTER in SoFL!
