Lynn University — Attraction in Boca Raton

I have attended school here for 3 years and have had nothing but awful experiences. To start, the food is not as good as you hear. Many of my friends freshman year including me got food poisoning multiple times. To add, the financial aid office is AWFUL. They are horrible with communications and have screwed me over more times than I can count. Moving on, my academic advisor has also done nothing to screw me over. I am ending up having to take another year of undergrad because there was so much miscommunication on her part about what classes I needed to take, if I was on track or not, etc. If you take a look at some statistics about Lynn, you will noticed that the acceptance rate is 80% but the graduation rate is 51%. After freshman year, so many students transfer out of lynn because it is not a great school. Another thing that Lynn doesn't tell incoming freshman is that credits DO NOT transfer. That means that if you go through 1 or 2 or even 3 years and want to transfer out, it is almost impossible to get your credits transfer. You would pretty much have to start all over at another school as a freshman. Lynn is totally not worth all the money I have given to this school. I do love the location and being close to the beach, West Palm Beach, and Fort Lauderdale, but other than that I cannot say another good about Lynn. If you are thinking about coming to Lynn, PLEASE do your research about it and ask your admissions counselor so...

Lynn University is a nice place, but I have to admit it doesn't educate anyone well enough. Academically, it's like you're in middle school again since it seems easier than high school. It's like a Disney World there because the students there get babied since the professors there don't do too much of a good job preparing them for their future, and the students go to Lynn to have a good time, it's not really a school. If you graduate from Lynn with various degrees, you may have trouble finding jobs since Lynn didn't prepare you well enough. The students who are from out-of-state or out-of-country and go to Lynn having so much fun, they think they want to live where they go to college. To those of you who attend Lynn University and want to live in Florida, YOU ALL NEED TO LISTEN. You guys have to understand something, you all in the State of Florida, because you all decided to go to school at Lynn University, you guys think you want to live in Florida because you're having such a wonderful time, but get this, even if any of you decide to live in Florida, it won't be a vacation or the colleges days you all had, because living in Florida would make you have to find a job and a place to live! Anyway, good...

This is an absolute joke of a university. The academics, housing, food, and social life are all subpar and not worth the exorbitantly expensive tuition. During my time at Lynn University I was enrolled in classes that were the equivalent of a sixth grader’s. The classes do not prepare you for anything after college. Furthermore, the credits DO NOT TRANSFER to most universities, even though Lynn has a 40% graduation rate, which is saying something because students STILL decide to leave and repeat their freshman year of school. Regarding housing, the dorms are in need of maintenance from the day you move in (ours had our window shades falling out of the ceiling, a sink that did not work, and an AC unit that caught fire). In the midst of the COVID pandemic, the school is refunding students for a portion of their housing tuition, but refuses to refund students that have chosen to transfer in the fall, about 60% of the school. If I could give less than one star I would, DO NOT WASTE 60K ON THIS ABSOLUTE MESS OF A SCHOOL.

p.s. no it isn’t worth it even if it is in florida DONT COME FOR...
