It is a well-known and popular university in Kyushu. It offers liberal arts, science, and medical courses, and also places great emphasis on athletic clubs. The campus is also very large. It is now possible to commute to school from Hakata Station by subway without changing trains, which I think has made it more convenient for students.

???????

Fukuoka University - The gymnasium next to the soccer field has dazzling lights inside. The gymnasium is at the same height as the road that runs next to it (the road leading to the intersection of National Route 202), so the lights from the gymnasium reach directly into the driver's seat, making it very bright and dangerous.

????

In the English class for first-year students, even if you take the class seriously, a bald foreigner will get angry at you and yell at you in English, saying that you will get a zero. You don't understand why he's scolding you, so no matter what you say, he won't listen. Please be careful of your holster.

??????????

What is the line between excellence and the bottom? It's hard to tell the difference at this university. The stories of male students are particularly long. You don't see students from other universities wearing their club practice uniforms, but when you do, you can tell.

????

There is a subway station nearby, several real estate agencies, Jonan Police Station??, student discounts?, and more, so it's a convenient and safe town with lots of things close by, so parents and children can feel at ease? There is a bus stop? and an ATM too! …

I'm a third-year student in the Faculty of Law.
University life is fulfilling and fun, but it can also be challenging, with assignments and tests being more difficult than in other departments. ?
I think the level of fulfillment is the same in all departments! …

There has been no communication at all about the relocation of the neurosurgery department, so it is difficult to walk from the new building to the east and west, to the main building, and back to the second floor of the new building, which is very difficult.

Terrible procedures, was waiting in the lobby for my friend and told me I could not because my friend had to be with me the whole time so it had inconvenienced both of us as they were packing to go. Now I wait outside in the cold because of …

It is a large private university with a medical school and a law school. It also has Fukuoka University Ohori High School. Although it is called Fukuoka University, it is a private four-year university. The medical school is a six-year program.

Of course, I don't think this is true for all students here, but they smoke while walking in the mornings, regardless of the elementary school students and nursery school children walking to school, and sometimes they make a lot of noise in …

It's spacious, but there are few students there due to COVID. The cafeteria is open for three hours from 11am to 2pm! It's cheap, filling, and fast! Two types of lunch are 470 yen, with extra rice, miso soup, and salad, and all-you-can-eat …

Eighty percent of the students are there to have fun, but there aren't many idiots who are completely useless, so it was fun. If you stay in Kyushu, the job market isn't too bad. If I could do my life over again, I would study a little harder.

???

I'm a student. At the Central Library, seats are spaced apart as a COVID-19 prevention measure. Because of the distance, people can't talk, and there are students who come to the library almost alone, and everyone is studying hard. Despite …

Kubo from the Student Affairs Division: They force me to buy a 100 yen seal, saying that even official seals and personal seals that can be used at ward offices and banks cannot be used at the Student Affairs Division (I don't understand why).

My alma mater has good transportation access, a very large campus, and a clean library, so I was able to study quietly before exams. However, convenience stores were so crowded with students that it was difficult to buy anything. Although …

I'm sure Fukuda alumni would give it a high rating, but as someone who studied economics for two years and re-entered the entrance exams to a prestigious university in Tokyo, I strongly state that, with the exception of the medical and …

I came here to take a qualification exam, and Building A was quite far from the train station. However, the campus corridors were mostly covered, so it wasn't a problem even in the rain. It would be helpful if the vending machines were …

I am currently hospitalized at a Starbucks on the first basement floor of the new building, separate from the university hospital. The smiles of all the female staff working there are as beautiful as cherry blossoms in full bloom. I am …

Fukudai or Fukuoka University caught me from the first moment i visited the place. A modern and clean campus with many high quality sport areas, like a football/soccer field, baseball fields, swimming hall and so on. I met quite a few …

????

There are many people with poor traffic manners. I often see people riding their mopeds on the sidewalk or making U-turns on private property. This is causing a nuisance to the local residents, so I hope the university will take notice.

????

I visited the campus to take a qualification exam. It's a beautiful, urban campus. It's just a short walk from the subway station, so it's conveniently located and easily accessible. It's also easy to get to from outside the prefecture.

Keisuke Iwata

This is my alma mater, and I'm proud that it is a comprehensive undergraduate school, including the medical school. It has a comprehensive exchange program, an extension center, and offers cheap IELTS courses, so I recommend it.

???????

The building is spacious and stylish. The library has an amazing collection of books, so why not take a look? The cafeteria is also reasonably priced, so why not go to the school festival, Nanakuma Festival, and take a look?

Even though it's a private university, the fact that they use the "Fukuoka" name shows how clever the founders were at marketing it. Nationwide, there are a ton of people who think it's a national university... …

It was my first time visiting, and as you would expect from a mammoth school, there were many buildings and facilities. However, it seemed like there wasn't much space to relax outside the school buildings.

I didn't want to go to Fukuoka University because it was the university my father graduated from, but my girlfriend and father told me to go, so I went. I actually want to go to Kyushu Sangyo University.

JIRO N.

Although it is in Fukuoka city, the campus is huge and clean, and I envy the students. I visited to see Fumihiko Maki, but the honor of studying in a famous building is amazing. I recommend it.

I had no choice but to go to this school as a safety school,
but I really wanted to go to the school of my choice.
Good luck to all the students taking entrance exams reading this.

I attended a qualification course here, and I was impressed by the students studying diligently until late into the night. Everyone except me seemed to be a current student. …

A new building is currently under construction, apparently 12 stories tall. The main building is currently seven stories tall, so there may be a significant number of beds. …

There are many different medical departments, which is reassuring, but
the waiting time was very long and I ended up staying there for six hours, which was quite tiring.

The students' bicycle manners are terrible. They ride the wrong way and look at their smartphones while driving, which is dangerous. I wish they would teach them more.

Karatsu City has few parking spaces for people with disabilities, so we have to pay parking fees, which are 200 yen each. I wish they would add more parking spaces.

This is just ridiculous. The assignment system is so tedious. They just throw in some crap after a long, drawn-out process. It's so bad. I want to drop out.

Aori

I was surprised to see that there is still a smoking area on campus, next to the Faculty of Pharmacy.
There are many smokers among the faculty and staff.

The orthopedic ward is full of young nurses! Some are attentive, others not so...
I guess two weeks in a private room is about what you'd expect. …

During the consultation, he listened carefully to what the patient had to say and spoke based on the test results, so I felt a sense of trust in him.

The tennis club members gather in groups of about 10 both inside and outside convenience stores on the highway, and they are a nuisance to customers.

I often visit the Fukuoka University office, but the attitude of the administrative staff is very rude, and I have a bad experience every time I go.

I saw Fukuoka-kun on FBS, and it's true that it's windy around the Humanities Center. Also, I wish they'd shown the night view from the sky lounge.

You can get there from both Fukudai-mae Station and Nanakuma Station on the subway.
The surrounding area is full of students, so it can be noisy.
