Best school in Florida for astronomy/astrophysics?

I’m a high school junior interested in studying astronomy in college and wanted to know which schools in Florida are best for this subject. Thanks!

Hi!

I currently attend FAU (Florida Atlantic). We have an astronomy section in our College of Science building, also college courses and a club to join. I’m not a science major so that’s all I know (: but google search FAU COS or FAU Astronomy and you will find something.

U of F, FIT , and Embry Riddle in Daytona Beach if you’re all-in for aerospace fields. (If you’re interested in looking beyond FL, Emory and UT Austin would be other possibility to consider.)

Good luck in your search!

UT Austin is crazy hard to get into from OOS, and also very expensive for OOS students.

@UT Austin - Very true! OP hasn’t provided any information other an interest in studying Astronomy or Astrophysics so I made suggestions based off of a friend’s S’s recent applications and likes for similar majors. As a rising junior the OP has time to evaluate everything that’s out there - and there definitely will be schools that aren’t a good match due to requirements, location, size, & price.
