iF&M

Has anyone been accepted to iF&M as an international student? (this year or previous years) if so, what do you think made them choose you? what makes it different from the normal admission process? Is it all about stats, or is there another element to it? thank you in advance.

Did yall receive IF&M email?

Franklin Marshall has sent me an email of an opportunity called if&m that offers first year applicants to spend their semester in England. They provided a link via the mail to fill out forms if I'm interested. Last year, I didn't receive this email and just got curious as to if it's sent to everyone or not, is this a sign of their interest in my application?

Should I apply test optional with a 1310?

It says on the website that they only look at the test score if it strengthens your application, but I'm still unsure whether to apply for test opt. The middle 50% of accepted students is 1310-1440, so I'm on the lower side.

An international student needing desperate guidance!

Hi guys

i need some urgent guidance for F&M. I'm an international satudent and the needs based scholarship shiould help a lot. but at the end of the day, it's about getting a job! i'm very itnerested in the data analytics major or computer science (I'm mostly keen on data science, AI and stuff)

Anyone out there have any experience in either of the fields i'm looking at and can tell me if international students can get jobs post F&M? its a tiny school in a remote-ish part of PA so i just dont want to make the wrong decision going down the path of an affordable school (there are some other options).

Any advice would be so very, very much appreciated!

people here are vapid and pretentious... apply to another school instead

also I find it hilarious that the only people posting in this sub are like "will I get in? will I be waitlisted?", nobody who actually goes here gives a shit about fandm social media. completely unlike other colleges, people actually use their colleges subreddits

DHalls new corporate rules

Franklin & Marshalls dining hall is becoming a real shit show. Run by Sodexo. They are now beholden to corporate recipes that barely scale to correct size. Limited options and little creativity. They now "play corporate ball" for budget reasons. If you are missing any of your favorites contact DHall managers, black jacket supervisors, or front of house. Make comment cards in DHall. Start a petition. Sodexo went hard for orientation with parents and are now pulling a bait and switch with available options.

Are the pre-programs worth it?

I'm going to f&m this fall and looking at the pre-programs (like CURB) that happens before the regular move in day and orientation. Is it worth the $250 to go to apply for this or not rlly?

What is the diplomats club?

I got something saying I could join it or smt. I’m confused about what it is and what getting this means. Edit: it's probably just a strategy to get people to attend tours or something, sorry!

Is F&M bad for pre-med?

I plan to be pre-med majoring in neuroscience—possibly psych—and French. After talking with my tour guide and another alum, they both said that they didn’t feel prepared for the MCAT and both didn’t end up in med school. Can anyone speak to whether this is because F&M isn’t great for pre-med or if it just depends on the person? My tour guide (who graduated last year) said that it wasn’t because of anything F&M did but because she didn’t have the confidence to pursue medicine while the alum (graduated a few years ago, not sure when) I spoke with said that it was due to her advisors not steering herself in the right direction/having to be her own advocate more than she should have to and that they don’t offer anatomy/physiology (which are pre-med requirements), among other things.

Do you agree that it depends more on the person or do you think F&M is not the best for pre-med? (I’m currently torn between Lafayette and F&M and F&M was my number one originally but now I don’t know how to feel about it).

I've got two news

Bad news: I got rejected at fandm God news: I got accepted at NYU with 52k aid

Maybe fandm has become more competitive & sought after school than NYU 🗿🗿

Best of luck to those getting the FandM RD today!

Hi there!

In a couple of hrs, at 7pm EST, fandm will release their regular application decision. To my buddys who had applied, best of luck to y'all. I wish everyone get in plus secure the desired aid.

Note: on 27th Feb, fandm released some the decisions of regular applications way before the intended date, which resulted in most of rejections.

Update: it's ironic I got into NYU, but rejected by fandm. I was expecting the opposite to it.
