I got accepted!! But conflicted??

I’m a senior and I got accepted into FIU. It’s pretty close to home only about an hour away which is good because I want to experience my own independence since I’m still scared to go too far away from home. However, I’m conflicted because I hear how to not come if you want the college experience since most people are commuters and it’s hard to make friends but I’m also not a huge party person so I have no desire to go to a big party school but I do want some sort of college experience. Current students here I wanted to ask about the academics? (Choosing accounting as a major) student life? Do you recommend it? Pros and cons?
