Choose your college with confidence.

SchoolScoops private tour

With SchoolScoops, you choose your guide and get real answers from a real student. See campus like an insider on a private tour personalized for you.

Typical college tour

Most campus tours feel generic—big groups, scripted stops, and a guide you didn't choose. But choosing a college isn't a group decision. It's a personal one.

The more personal way to tour Florida State University

Private, personalized Florida State tours

On a traditional Florida State University campus tour you're just a number in a big group. With SchoolScoops, you can book a private Florida State University tour led by a real Florida State student, giving you a personalized campus visit and the chance to ask all the questions that are important to you.

Choose your own tour guide

Unlike a traditional Florida State University campus tour, SchoolScoops lets you choose your own tour guide. Whether you want to meet an engineering major, a student-athlete or a fellow transfer student, you'll get authentic insights and advice from someone who truly gets you.

No scripts, just scoops

Traditional Florida State University campus tours are essentially a sales pitch—the tour guide works for the school and their job is to show you the highlights. SchoolScoops guides don't work for their school, so there's no sales pitch—just honest, unfiltered advice about the Florida State experience.

Find out if Florida State is the school for you

Choosing where to go to college is a major decision and a huge investment. A private Florida State tour helps you decide if Florida State University is the right fit for your academic goals, career ambitions and college experience.
