2017-2018 Florida International University

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I submitted an update/letter of interest yesterday through the secondary portal - do they usually contact you that the update's been received, or should I call to confirm? Thank you!

Accepted students, is there anything we need to have completed before April 30th? Did they give you any information on how to sign up for the myfiu portal?
 
Is there a place to pay the $100 to hold our seat? I can’t find anything like it on my portal.

When I called they said that they would send an email with instructions on how to pay the deposit AFTER the April 30th deadline and to just “sit tight” until then lol

Hey, did you pay the deposit (I'm asking because I haven't received an email about it yet) or did you just withdraw your other acceptances to 'officially' accept? just making sure i'm not missing anything :) thanks!

Declined my seat this morning. Great school, just better offer and fit somewhere else. Best of luck to all of you.
 
Just called the school and apparently there has not been any waitlist movement yet. I think they are still figuring out who is committed versus who is not!

Probably! I mean there have been people on here saying they have withdrawn so there should be movement eventually
 
Accepted off the waitlist about 2 pm today! Got the call from the dean. First acceptance, OOS, waitlisted 10/15.

Did you apply to the certificate program? I also got that email but assumed it was related to that application.
 
Giving up my acceptance spot, just received admission elsewhere

I was accepted in November and I just got the email that they received my FAFSA. I just logged into my Panther ID but under the TODO LIST, it says "Admission not confirmed." Anyone else have this? I already paid the deposit. Is there something else I forgot to do?
same. maybe it just hasn't been updated yet
 
Does anyone know what the "comp fee" for $680 is for on the estimated award letter that admissions sent us?

Yea I think it’s for the computer they give us. They give us a laptop with all the software we need.
