Graduate / Physics

<p>Pasbal –
After coming across this FSU forum, you appear knowledgeable regarding graduate admissions @ FSU and I’d sincerely appreciate any guidance you may provide;
Currently a senior @ Princeton and have applied to FSU graduate physics program primarily as a back-up safety school. </p>

<p>Any insight you may provide as to the graduate school culture @ FSU and I am unable to obtain any specific quantitative numbers as to GRE / Physics GRE / GPA scores in order to be competitive. Thanks for your time… Carlos New Jersey</p>

<p>As the father of a recent med school grad and father-in-law of a phd student in another department I think you should contact the specific department, in this case physics, for an authoritative answer to your questions.</p>

<p>By all means stress to them that FSU is merely a “back-up safety school” for you. They will be impressed and most appreciative a Princeton (no less - wow!) senior has condescended to spend time reviewing their program.</p>

<p>You might also want to ring up the Director of the Mag Lab and see what his jolly band of derelicts are up to as well. </p>

<p>Best of luck.</p>

<p>Grad school is very much department-centric. I unfortunately don’t know much, if anything, helpful towards trying to be accepted into the physics department for grad school.</p>
