Great video. Wish I watched this before I applied for housing and meal plan. Had no idea what I was doing lol
Thank you so much! And same I was completely lost last year haha :)
Great video! What do u do once I’ve gotten accepted like what are the next steps ?
Hey! Any additional tips you wish you would’ve known early on your college journey at FAU?
I would say one of the big things if you want to do stuff on campus is to follow the "faustudentunion" and "sgatfau" Instagram page! There are some stuff that you won't want to do but sometimes like this past semester Flo Rida came and the only way I knew that and was able to sign me and my friends up before the tickets sold out was by following those pages and turning on the post notifications.
i finished to this, thanks
Hey thanks for the video. I just wanted to ask is there any on campus or off campus jobs available near FAU ? Please reply
Hey! Are the freshman housing options applicable to first year graduate students too ?
Hey, are gyms currently open? I will be at village apartments being an exchange student only for the summer! Thanks for the info xx
Hello! Yes the gym on campus is open you just have to go on owlrec.fau.edu to schedule a time to go in, you can also sign up for gym classes on that website!
Hi,
I will be in FAU from the spring semester and will be doing the fall semester virtually from Bangladesh.So, I was thinking can I have a shot to have a seat in the Innovation Village apartments? I will be doing Masters in Finance.
Hope to hear from ya soon!
Hello thank you so much for your question! I would call housing their number is 561-297-2881. They should be able to give you specifics on housing availability :)
Hey! So I’m going to FAU in the fall, I was just wondering how you pay your bills, like meal plans and dorm? Is it like a monthly rent type of situation?
Hia! So you pay at the end of each semester all at one for both dorm and meal plan, the same time you pay tuition. They wait to have you pay till all your scholarships and bright futures and all that comes in.
@@madznsab thank you:)
I applied to FAU and I heard it's a big commuter school, do you feel like because of that the social life is kinda dead?
hi! i’m transfering in the fall this year as a sophomore. are the cost of the dorms and on campus apartments per month or per semester?
Hey! I plan on going to FAU for Fall 2021. What are the best dorms for incoming freshman ranking best to worst? Most convenient, close to everything, etc. I heard that Parliament isn’t the best because of its location and size of room even though it’s newer.
Thanks for the question! Let me go into some detail about what I know about each dorm.
Heritage: very close to dining hall and breezeway (where the restaurants and some classes are), limited parking, no single rooms, doubles are larger, less washing machines, older building.
Glades: close to dining hall and breezeway (where the restaurants and some classes are), limited parking , no single rooms, doubles are larger, older building.
Parliament: Far from the dining hall and the breezeway (where the restaurants and some classes are), lots of parking, lots of single rooms, doubles are smaller, more washing machines, newer building, gym, computer lab, connected to the theatre lab.
Glades and Heritage are definitely closer to everything if that’s important for you.
Let me know if I can give you any more information!
@@madznsab Thank you so much! That helped a lot!!
@@madznsab why don’t heritage and glades have single rooms? It was in the housing application as an option
@@gabrielmoran2870 I just looked at it and I think I was mistaken, they do have singles but not as many as parliament. Sorry for the confusion!
Hey, so I'm a current freshman here at fau, and I live in Glades Park Towers. There are single rooms here, there's just usually single & double rooms all in one suite. Same for heritage. IRT, which is both freshman & upperclassmen dorms which is close to everything, has a front room area, and has double or single room options. They're building a new building that will be done in fall, but apparently its for us upcoming sophomores. Overall gpt, and hpt are cheaper, and still good theres not much difference except parliament and irt is nicer, and more expensive but parliment is farther from everything, and irt your suitemates or roommates may be upperclassmen. If you want to get the cheapest option, i'd say gpt is the best and if you don't mind spending a little more IRT is a good option as well. Parliament if you'll be commited to that walk to get to everything hope this helped.
Fot the flex bucks, is it like for example: you get starbucks and it costs $3, does it take $3 from your flex bucks lr does it take 1 away being that you used it once? ahh idk if that makes sense!
No that makes sense, it takes $3 away so basically you have a set budget that you can spend :) hope that helps!
Hi 👋🏼 I wanted to know if I schedule my classes like 10 min apart would I be able to walk from class to class. Cause the shuttles seem more like around the outer parts of the campus not really inside. Does that imply on campus is walking distance?
Hello, thank you so much for the question! You definitely would be able to make it, you might speed walk a little but I have friends that only have 10 mins between class and they make it just fine. Also yes shuttles are more the perimeter of campus and to be honest I have never used them.
@@madznsab I’ve been on campus for a while now. I agree that from one end to another the campus is max 30 min speed walking. And the shuttles are mainly for transport to the train station or dorms if you need.
Hey, do you know how much you pay if you not gonna live on campus, just the in state tuition with whatever u need like books etc.

Hope this link helps!
Hey, I’m gonna be an exchange student for 2023-2024, what housing on campus could I get please? Also one where I can cook if I want to or go to the dining hall if I want to if that’s possible. Also is there any funding I could avail of to help me financially for the year please?
I do have questions about fau, does I have to pay something to go to the beach that is close to the campus? And is innovation village apartments good? When can I move in to there?
Hello! The pavilion beach thats right by school you can almost always find free street parking. I’ve heard that innovation is very nice and everyone I know that lives their likes it a lot. As far as I know you have to be sophomore and up to live their but I would call housing to confirm. There where some freshman that lived their this year but that was only since rules where lifted due to covid, so I would call housing to see what the rules will be this year.
@@madznsab thank youu!❤
Are pets allowed?
I know that service animals and fish are allowed, my friend has a cat that she got registered and everything for mental health but I’m not sure if she needed to pay a fee for that :)
@@madznsab what about my pet turtle(eddie) can I bring her?
@@ZoraVisions I would assume so but I would definitely call housing to make sure, their number is 561-297-2880!
