FSU places a strong emphasis on its mission. If an applicant submits a stellar application that aligns with their mission, a 504 is not necessarily a disqualifying factor. They also take a holistic approach to evaluating applications, considering special circumstances such as low SES background, significant hardships, etc.

Is there still hope for II from now on? Cause I feel my application align perfectly with the mission.
 
does anyone know of an estimate with how many seats or interviews are left for this cycle?
 
Happy New Year SDN!

Two quick notes:
  1. A new batch of interview invites will go out tomorrow; 30 or so applicants will be invited.
  2. To the mod/mods of the new FSU Class of 2029 GroupMe or Facebook group: please add/approve our Hospitality Chairs, David Hartsfield and Lisa Turk, to both groups. They will help disseminate important information!
As always, happy to answer the questions I am able to!

Usually what’s time it usually lands?
 
Does uploading an app update have a huge weight our application? I am very interested in FSU COM and I submitted an update a couple of months ago
 
As bummed as I am to have refreshed my email all day and seen only a receipt for my Taco Bell order, I do want to take a second to appreciate FSU COM for being so dedicated to updating and supporting their prospective students. So many of these SDN threads are full of speculation and self reports, it's very considerate of them to dedicate energy and resources to answer our questions.

Hello again,

The most recent invites have all gone out. As the cycle progresses, the invitations will be more sporadic as we have to fill spots when an applicant withdraws.

Thanks!

About what percentage of the applicants still had to be interviewed?
 
Hey all,

Going to answer a few questions below:

Uploading an update does not carry any "weight", but it does help the admissions committee see ongoing commitment to whatever is you are doing.

Hello! How many IIs are left?

We always project somewhere close to 300 interviews, and we have interviewed and invited a little more than half. We will invite another 100-120 applicants. Maybe more if necessary

does that mean there wont be another wave in 2 weeks?

Maybe? If any from the group we invited yesterday withdraw, the next folks will get an invite, thus the more sporadic invites. The next big invite will likely be sometime at the end of next week or week after.

Can't tell you how much it means to see this message. We are working to meet applicants where they are, but will always remind everyone that our email is the best way to connect officially with specific questions about your own journey. Hope you ordered a cheesy gordita crunch!

Thanks everyone,

Thank you so much for your help!!
Is there a limit to how many updates we can submit?
 
FSU admin Thank you for being so transparent and informative throughout this process. This is my first time applying, and I’m sure it’s the same for many others in this chat. To my knowledge, this is the only school offering this kind of direct feedback to applicants rather than through email. Thank you is not enough.

Agree one hundred percent. Hands down.

I was recently waitlisted and I have a few questions. 1) I read earlier in the thread that LOIs are not accepted until later in the spring semester, but I was wondering if there is a more specific timeline. 2) Should students on the waitlist consider a campus visit?

@Steadyseal Please see what FSUAdmissions said regarding this matter on January 8th.
It appears that the remaining interview invites will be sent to fill spots when an applicant withdraws.
 
I like how fsu admission team is really being supportive. But I might be cooked ngl. I am not getting anything and more than half of II is send out
