When it comes to looks, it seems like FAU has the total package — well, at least the ladies do.
According to University Primetime — a website similar to Buzzfeed but aimed specifically toward college life — FAU ranks at No. 82 in the list of “Top 100 Colleges with the Most Attractive Student Bodies.”
After a Breezeway poll of 50 students, 80 percent of students report that they are not surprised at all by FAU’s placement on the “Top 100” list.
Every year after polling their readers, University Primetime put out the “Top 100” overall and two “Top 50” lists of most attractive females and males. This year, FAU landed spots on two of the three.
According to the Primetime lists, FAU’s rank on the “Top 100” was no thanks to the males. They didn’t place at all on the “Top 50 Schools with the Most Attractive College Males,” while FAU females placed No. 39 on theirs.
This came as a surprise to students like sophomore biology major Alea Martino. “There are some pretty good looking guys,” Martino said. A Michigan native, Martino says the attractiveness of students at FAU compared to people back home is clear. “Any place that’s warmer tends to have hotter-looking people.”
It seems like Martino’s theory is true, since six other Florida schools also made the “Top 100” list. They include Florida Gulf Coast University at No. 95, Florida International University at No. 69, University of Florida at No. 27 and University of Miami at No. 21. Finally, in the top five, Florida State lands at No. 5, taking a back seat to University of Central Florida at No. 2. The No. 1 spot went to Arizona State University.
