<p>When does the application open for fall 2015? Anybody who has information on the whole process of applying at FSU feel free to post.</p>
<p>The application portal usually opens in early to mid August, normally by August 15. </p>
<p>It’s the normal college application process - start developing your detailed academic, extra-cirricular and volunteer resume ASAP, it will make the application process 10 times easier with all of the info organized and at your fingertips. Oh, and do NOT miss the early application deadline, which means you find out if you have been accepted in December…the available slots close tighter, making it harder to get in after that. Best of luck!</p>
<p>Thanks so much! Does FSU require an essay?</p>
<p>Essay is recommended.</p>
<p>It’s a mistake not to submit one - however as noted above, having all A’s and B’s in mostly AP/IB and Honors is the most important, followed by test scores. FSU does superscore both the SAT and ACT, I would say you want over 1800 or at least a 28 to feel safe.</p>
