Just curious and trying to chance myself. Seems there is no forums out there that mention transfer acceptance time/status.
Thanks!
Transfer students aren’t admitted at the same time or via the same process, so unless you just happen to have your admissions decision available at the same time as the new incoming freshmen, you won’t be able to access it with the freshman decisions.
Transfer students have to be approved by both the Office of Admissions, and then by the Department that houses your intended major. It will depend on how the Department handles the admissions (some have faculty meetings where they review applicants, for example) for how long the decision will take. You may not hear back until the end of the semester, unfortunately (sometime within the next 2 weeks or so).
I applied in May and was accepted by the College of Business but NOT the office of Admissions yet. The person that contacted me told me I would hear from them “soon” and they tell me “a few days” but I’ve heard nothing. Frustrating part is that I’ve read multiple places that it normally takes 4-6 weeks from application to get a decision when you’re a transfer. Again, I applied in MAY. Now I don’t know whether to register for classes or wait on FSU.
