I read somewhere that FAMU will send out admission decisions on February 1st (but my application has been completed since 12/16 (application finished since 11/23) so I’m hoping to find out soon). It makes me nervous to read other people say they have been admitted already. Good luck to you @Bandcap17. I will keep this post updated with any information that I find out and I hope you will too.

@DPT2023 Holy crap, then I need to pay the fee soon! o.o

@frykera what fee? Do you mean application fee?

@DPT2023 Thanks, Good luck to you as well.

How much is Famu’s full tuition (room, board, books, etc.) I see different prices all over the place.

@Bandcap17 this is what was on their website.

Dang, I forget to check this sometimes. Sorry, but we’re not dead! I’m still planning on going, just waiting for the admission decisions.

How long does it take for them to make a decision? i applied as a transfer still haven’t heard back

Update…I will be attending UNF

Still waiting to hear back, i heard admission was disorganized! i had to send them my college transcript twice

So I applied to FAMU back in November and I was tired of waiting for a decision especially when everything was turned in since before Christmas break so I accepted admission to UNF and then today after months I finally received an email to say accepted…REALLY…(after I accepted admission to another school) [-(

How long did it take for you to hear back? I applied in February & application was complete in february and still waiting for a decision. How did you see you were accepted? @DPT2023

@cocochanel071 I applied in November 2016 and received the acceptance email April 1 2017(I thought it was an April fools joke). This school took the longest to send out decision letter out of all the schools I applied to, which sucks because it was my #1 school. They first notified me by Email, and I still have not received anything by us postal service.

@DPT2023 @cocochanel071 I got accepted today for the Summer Term! I applied for the Fall, but my plans where to do the Summer Term anyway because I did not have anything planned specifically over the summer, you know? I’m really excited!!! Like, when they told me the Admissions Committee had finalized their decision and I checked my iRattler and saw that I had been accepted, I screamed for joy! Sorry for not responding like I had originally intended, so much has been going on school-wise!

Congratulations

Did you get in?

Yes, but I won’t be attending here.
