Info on Lynn University?

[Anonymous]

I’ve been told it has a good conservatory of music.

The only reason I've heard of Lynn is because I grew up in Palm Beach County and I know some ppl who went there. I always thought of it as a commuter school (FAU too) in a lame area for college students, but that was 25 years ago so it might have changed. Have you looked at Rollins College or Stetson University? Both better known (imo) FL privates. Or even Flagler in St. Augustine.

I have a friend who is a great guy, but now the sharpest. He went there after going to three different DC high schools in 4 years. He was there for a few years and said that it was full of very rich kids, like Ferrari rich. It wasn’t like he was poor either.
He ended up transferring, but to be near his best friend from high school.

I agree look at Rollins. Also very rich kids, but it winter park which is gorgeous.

Very rich kids have very rich parents and can buy their way into better places than Lynn. The university of Miami is full of those kids. I'm tying to imagine how much of a screw up a fantastically wealthy kid would have to be to end up at Lynn

If you don’t mind sharing, did your brother need extra assistance with executive functioning? My son has adhd and a learning difference so we’re looking at colleges with good support systems in place.

Glad I checked back. Yes, my brother (42 now) has learning issues. He was also already in Florida for a HS boarding tennis academy. There were supports in place but he really thrived there and did not need to utilize them often. I have learning issues, too (runs in the family! I am 54 now.) Anyway, I wanted to mention that I graduated from Syracuse University, and the have a very strong program in place for "different types of learners." Love SU.

Thanks for sharing these experiences!

It’s been a slog trying to find schools that would be a good fit for him. I’ll take a look at SU too.

they have a decent program in hospitality management if your child might be interested in that. I work in the field, and a lot of my contacts in Florida hire from Lynn.
