Hi! My name’s Neomie, I’m a sophomore at FSU majoring in exercise physiology on a pre-health track. I’m originally from NJ so i’m an out of state student. I’ve loved my time so far at Florida State and am excited to share why it was the right fit for me.

Describe your college experience

As an out of state student, I knew no one coming to FSU so the first couple weeks were a little rough for me. However, once I really got settled I fell in love with the school. I joined a sorority my sophomore year and have tried getting involved in a few different clubs throughout my time here which helped me meet so many people. Overall, Florida State is a great balance of everything you think of in the traditional “college experience”.

Tip for future students

My best tip would be to just put yourself out there especially in the first few weeks. It can be really overwhelming when you first get to school but just stay focused and trust things will work out and you’ll have an amazing college experience.

Favorite class

My Engage 100 because as a student coming from out of state it was a really great way to get acclimated to school. The entire class is first semester freshman and it’s a very small class so you get to know everyone pretty well and it’s a nice way to meet people. Also, the class focused on study skills and learning more about FSU overall which was very helpful my first semester.

Career goals

Attend PA school and become a Physical Assistant

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal night could be one of two things, either getting dinner with friends and going out or staying in with my roommates and watching tv or getting a sweet treat.
