What kind of progressive university doesn't even have ANY car chargers for it's students, faculty or staff? The government is giving away money hand over fist for charging infrastructure and there are companies that will literally come in do all the work for you.
And it really does matter. My neighbor is employed by FDU and is looking for a new vehicle and is citing "lack of charging infrastructure" as a reason to avoid getting a plug-in vehicle - which I think otherwise would be a great fit.
If you are not part of the solution.... ;)

As a former student from the metro campus i dont recall the education worth it. Some of the professors were full of hostility and resentment as to how they ended up teaching. There are good professors out there but have little power to make any positive changes on the campus. I got more of my money's worth studying elsewhere. And it's overpriced if you dont qualify for the fafsa or other student aid, but even w the aid the prices should have been at community college value, or less. Fdu's reputation wont land you a job of your dreams right away. Its not all as they advertise. Study elsewhere for your own sake.

Fairleigh Dickinson University is the first American university to own and operate an international campus and currently offers more than 100 individual degree programs to its students.
It wasn't that good of an academic experience, dorm life is very boring and the geese always there to dirty the grass near the bridge. The networking events are not that great, you're better off learning somewhere else for a cheaper price. For me a community college was a better quality experience in many levels.Teachers were not that good, the CORE classes are just a waste of time. Try NYU, Columbia, NJIT since they look better in your cv/resume' . a lot of my friends didnt like the engineering teachers at all and I was not happy with their management information system courses. if you think about it, there is nothing unique about this place since practically all other community colleges and universities have international students.

1st class education. Within a stone’s throw of NYC giving you access to all the resources in the world. Teachers/Professors are real life actual successful professionals in their craft. Extremely knowledgable & perfectly suited for both the self-motivated student & a student that needs attention. This is the place for anyone that wants an exceptional career & is willing to work for it.
This school is full of discrimination, racism and unfairness... For $40,000-$45,000 per year the campus and facilities are absolute nightmare - old and obsolete... The faculty is nor professional with a good amount of disrespectful and unfair professors... If you are looking to enroll into register nursing program, then listen to my advice - AVOID AT ANY COST!!! There are plenty of very good private schools out there which you could go to get your education.... Probably the most f....cked up nursing department in trial-state area... Waste of big money and most importantly waste of time...

Great University, given it has some flaws and most universities do. You do get an education here and the people that do complain are a bunch of pansies. If you really work hard you can do well anywhere.
The best college you can get into In and around new Jersey! No second Thoughts! It might sound pricey , but if you study well enough it is covered under the scholarship, and trust me studying here is worth your money!
WiFi is terrible, the cafeteria closes WAY too early (week days open till 8:30, weekends open till 7:00) and they charge you an arms and a leg whenever they get the chance. Oh and please don't get me started on their "dry campus" nonsense, this is the most WET campus I have ever been on, the hallways smell like marijuana quite frequently and nobody does anything about it. However, this campus does provide MANY options in terms of what you wish to major in as well as supplemental choices for five year programs. Another notable benefit of this campus is the teachers and faculty here are indeed committed to make you succeed so as far as academics go, this campus is rather promising. However, if you are looking for something more outside of the academic experience DO NOT COME HERE. FDU gets very boring very quickly I have other complaints as well but for the sake of appropriateness I will not name them.

I am a freshman here currently at FDU metro and this school is like going to High School part 2. The campus is smaller than my high school, and the professors do not intellectually challenge me and lets not forget the horrendous food they serve and they shut down the cafeteria at 9:30, which is way too early. I'm definitely considering transferring from this school, high school was already bad enough and I do not intend to stay here.
