So I released to fsu.

But If I go to my app I can still edit and change everything. Is it suppose to be like this? Is it waiting till they receive my LORs? Which I designated to the school when I submitted my secondary (which apparently takes more time).

Does anybody have any more info on this? Wouldn't mind tweaking a thing or two if its still available but I don't want to delay myself.
 
Hello??? Is there anybody in here??? Lol, secondary submitted and complete email received! I would love to be accepted here. Its a great program!!
 
Same here! I sent in my secondary last week. But I'm out of state thought :[
 
can someone please post the secondary application essay prompts 😀
 
I am going to submit my secondary later today. Hope everything goes well.
 
is there a length limit for the answers to the questions on the secondary? 2,000 characters w/ spaces?
 
Also, for the question that asks about what you do for fun and diversion, do you think certain volunteer experiences could be considered in this? Should be, right?
 
I submitted my app, and just realized there is no app. fees.
🙂
 
Invites went out this coming week last year!! :xf:

Good luck everyone!!
 
I feel like I can accurately and fully address their prompts in far less than 500 words...maybe 250-350. I tend to write concisely and I hate to try to stretch it out and start sounding wordy and full of nothing, but at the same time I don't want to be counted against for "not using what they give me." Any thoughts?
 
Just got the secondary. I will get things sent in by Monday as I will have plenty of time to work on the essays this weekend.

Let's hope for some FSU love! :xf:

Congrats!! That's awesome!
 
My application is under review and it probably going to be a while since I did NOT apply for EDP.

M3 Here. You should use the space you are given. The prompts leave plenty of leeway to elaborate your story. You would be remiss to not take full advantage of it in my opinion. Don't feel mandated to ride the line at 499, but you should at least manage over 400.

I respectfully disagree. Be concise. The last thing you want to do is be verbose. If wouldn't write 200 words, but if you can do it in under 400, that's fine. When I wrote my residency personal statement, I went just over half a page - was told by many PDs that it was the best they'd read.

You do you.
 
Got an ii on 8/27!!! Not early decision and they were missing one letter of rec (science professor), so I hope this is a good sign! 🙂

Oh, and I was complete 7/29

Yea via email.

My day off so I was about to take a nap, checked my email before I went to lie down. Needless to say I'm not tired anymore.
 
M2 here.

FSU is a great school. It's very laid back, everyone works together, and you have the opportunity to match into any specialty you desire (check our match lists). The student support is outstanding.
 
Interview Invite 🙂 I cant even put it into words. This has been a great couple of days
Complete 8/28 >3.7 >34 IS
Good luck to all and can't wait to meet some of you on interview day!
 
Do you guys think its too late to apply if you sent your application in a week ago?
 
When i click to check my app status i get this message "Secondary Application Reviewed - Missing" what does that mean?! should i call them?

I would definitely call them about this! Sounds like they haven't received all the supplementary materials necessary to mark you as complete (ex: maybe they never got one of your LOR).
 
It took six days for them to invited me for an interview. II September 30th!!:clap::clap::
