FSU Deffered

I’m wondering what are my chances of being admitted to FSU:

I have a 3.6 weighted G.P.A, 24 ACT Score, played basketball for four years and received three varsity letters.

My sister and brother both graduated from FSU. My G.P.A has improved each year throughout high school, including my

strength of courses. Junior and Senior year I have taken a total of two AICE classes, one AP, and four Dual-Enrollment

courses. I also spoke with people at Florida State that are in my major department, and they were thrilled to see the interest

I have with attending FSU. My decision was delayed until March, but my college transcript wasn’t sent for the first

admission and my ACT score hadn’t been updated yet. I have talked with many of my friends who were admitted last year

and most of them had their decision delayed as well. If anyone couldgive me feedback, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Most of the kids I know who’ve applied to FSU with similar GPA/ACT scores have been disappointed. Your best bet is to apply for summer or spring terms and heavily hit the upward trend thing in your essay. Recs stating you walk on water and a good resume will help as well. (The resume says it’s optional. It isn’t really.)

Unless by “played basketball” you mean “heavily recruited as a starter by FSU’s coaching staff”, in which case you’re golden.
