Acceptance Questions

Hello everyone, my name is Corrinne. I applied to FSU and am waiting to receive my decision on March 16. I posted my credentials in another thread in the FSU tab titled “My Profile.” I am hoping I get accepted ! I just had a few questions about Acceptance/Rejection… If Accepted, is there always going to be a “Congratulations!” video? I’ve heard some people say they see it on their pages, but other people say it doesn’t show up but are still accepted… If Rejected, what should I do? Should I email them to get re-evaulated? Or is there anything I can really do?

I’m stressing out, I hope I get accepted ! I believe I have a strong chance, but I heard of the low chance for this second round of decisions. This is keeping me on my toes, so I hope I am accepted. If I get accepted into either Summer or Fall, I will be very happy. I have loved FSU for the longest time, since I was quite young. If anyone can help answer my questions, that would be great. Hope I become a Nole! #FSU2021

If you’re rejected and you really want to go to FSU that badly, your best bet is to get your AA from a community college/junior college and transfer in to FSU at that point. While others may encourage you to contact admissions and petition your decision, but don’t do this. It wastes admissions’ time and unless there’s a huge error on your profile, it’s not going to change things.

Your stats aren’t bad, it’s just going to be a huge toss-up for many students this cutoff. FSU is expecting possibly as low as a 20% acceptance rate from what I’ve seen, and that will catch a LOT of people off guard.

If you are accepted, the first thing to do is to decide whether you will be living on campus or off campus. At this point, on campus options are limited, so it may be a matter of simply what is available. Once you decide that, pay your housing deposit ASAP and submit all of the paperwork to lock in your housing number.

Yes, there is a congratulations video. I saw it and was beyond excited when it popped up on my feed (even though I eventually decided on UCF). I agree with @Pasbal - there’s not a likely chance of admissions reconsidering you, especially if everything is all in order.
You have a decent chance, don’t stress too much? Do you have other schools you’ve applied to though, in the chance you don’t get in?

@ucfprincess okay, cool! Some people say that see a video, and some don’t but are still accepted. Congrats to you for being accepted ! I agree with what @Pasbal said (thank you by the way, I meant to respond but got caught up in other things). I’m trying not to stress, but FSU is my top choice so I’m just anxious :-S Yes I have been accepted to 11 other schools if I don’t get in. Congrats on UFC though !

Have you checked your decision yet?

I was not granted admission @Cali2017 but I think I am going to transfer in after a semester at my Community College

I am really sorry to hear. Definetly, I think you are pretty much granted admission if you do that. Hope to see you soon become a Seminole
