FSU Dorms - Second Deadline

<p>I applied for Fall 2011 at Florida State University. I find out on March 16 whether I get in or not. </p>

<p>Will there still be any opportunities to still live on campus? I know that the first decision will get the best numbers but it seems like there aren't any left? I know they cut their numbers back a thousand this year as well.</p>

<p>From what I’ve heard, spots are going quicker than usual, (I believe they’re already in the 6000’s), but keep in mind not everyone that signed up will be attending FSU.</p>

<p>Sign up for housing immediately after you’re admitted. In years past, you couldn’t do this until midnight, but I believe this year people were able to do it at 6 PM the day before decisions were supposed to be released. If you sign up right after the decisions are released, I’d be very surprised if you don’t receive housing.</p>

<p>You can change your preferences and other settings after you sign up. Just make sure you sign up ASAP (literally) and get that priority number.</p>

<p>Sign up as soon as you know. No guarantees this year but yes you have a shot. While there are 6000 who signed up for a number, some did not pay in the 10 day time frame, some under 18 did not send in the parental consent. Some were ultimately accepted elsewhere after they got a priority number and will not actually pay their admissions deposit. EVEN IF YOU GET ON A WAITLIST FOR HOUSING, there are students who over the summer get off a waitlist to go elsewhere. If you get a number as soon as you can, you likely will get a room.</p>

<p>I was in the same boat as you last year, and my priority number was in the 5000s. I knew that I’d probably end up in a dorm I didn’t like so I applied for a living learning community. All you have to do is write 2 essays (at least for the Bryan Hall one). I think that most people who apply get in. Most living learning communities are in nice dorms in good locations. I think you find out if you were accepted into them sometime in April, and then you know automatically that you got housing. :)</p>

<p>I was accepted to FSU for spring 2012, I’m planning on attending another university for fall 2011, and then going to FSU. When should I apply for housing though? Because I checked the housing website, and the options they have is fall 2011/spring 2012, and summer 2011… When am I supposed to apply for housing?</p>
