FGCU is a great school to take into consideration for applying.
Over the summer I toured FGCU and loved it! It is such a peaceful place filled with nature. They had so many nature trails and activities that involved the water-front right on campus. The campus in general was very clean and modern. Also, the dorms were amazing with the privacy options.
I would also say that FGCU is more technologically advanced as well. They have an app that tells you when washing machines are ready to use and done with your laundry! I thought that was super useful. The same thing goes with the shuttles that are constantly going around campus.
I would definitely recommend touring FGCU!
