A little more info?

<p>Can anyone provide me with a little overview about what Furman is good for and what it is like? I was accepted here and now am seriously considering it. Haven't visited yet but plan to very soon. Does it have a good reputation? What's life like on campus? Any input would be appreciated! Thanks!!!</p>

<p>With all due respect, I'm sincerely why would you apply to a school that you know so little about?</p>

<p>Have you looked at their website or talked to the admissions rep for your region? Those would be good places to start.</p>

<p>I know about it from the school's perspective but I would like to hear about it from a student's.</p>

<p>Wow, you're asking for alot. Go to the Furman forum on this site and you will get alot of info. Also if you go to: <a href="http://www.furman.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.furman.edu&lt;/a> and go to the "Student Journals" section (I forget the link) if will be able to read about the students perspective. I think you can email these folks also. You can also go to facebook.com and theres a group already started with over 200 students accepted for the class of 2012. As far as FU as a school, if you do reasonablt well, it will get you wherever you want to go in life. Good luck</p>

<p>Hey, vjp ... what do YOU want in a school? If you begin with that, maybe I can tell you how Furman might fit for you. My D is a freshman at Furman. I will second joining the Facebook group. You will also be able to view other Furman groups once you join the class of '12 one, and you'll get a good idea of what is going on with students.</p>
