[granite briar]

[upbeat river]

FSUK

[mighty olive]

well kevy

it is what it is

UCF is great

[upbeat river]

only other florida school i applied to is uf

might be cooked

[granite briar]

summer semester starts quite late so you can still work

[austere birch]

my computer is at 6% damn

[granite briar]

also there’s a chance you can do it completely online @mighty olive

and by chance i mean it’s like pretty simple

[somber prawn]

Did anyone else get any other scholarships? Curious as an oos applicant 🙏

[upbeat river]

ig my essay was buns it lwk is ngl😭

[somber prawn]

This is kinda random, but did anyone else apply to florida schools expecting harris to win the election? Bc this is kinda weird but im so scared to go to school in florida now that trump will be president 😟

Curious how everyone else is handling the situation, especially other minorities 🙏

[mighty olive]

honestly i applied hoping the opposite so my scholarship wouldnt go away because of AffAct

white male straight 😭

and like

i cant change politics

so just do what benefits me in the short run

[granite briar]

to spare you a long ramble about the state of florida politics, whoever is president literally doesn’t change what goes on here

[granite briar]

i can assure you that tallahassee is a welcoming city as we are home not just to FSU but also one of the nations largest HBCUs

our school of engineering is shared between FSU and FAMU which is pretty interesting

[mighty olive]

which is good

but you know what else is good

getting 5g home internet from tmobile!

GET OU-

[raven trench]

Same here

OOS applicant

Good stats but no scholarships

[mighty olive]

wiggle is prob mad i got into FSU lmao cuz he doesnt wanna deal with me

[raven trench]

Did anyone else get any merit scholarships?

[cosmic mango]

i did

but its the one that comes with honors

[somber prawn]

ah ok that's somewhat relieving, thank you

[somber prawn]

is honors applications already closed?

[cosmic mango]

not sure

would assume so

[granite briar]

it closed hella early i forgot to apply my year 😭

[raven trench]

Yep I forgot to apply honors..will try for lateral honors

[granite briar]

i think it was due with RD app

[somber prawn]

oh damn

i didnt know abt hnrs deadline

[raven trench]

Same

[somber prawn]

@cosmic mango are you perchance an instate applicant?

[raven trench]

Wait did u get in lateral?

[cosmic mango]

ye

[granite briar]

my love for fsu overcomes your mild inconveniences

[mighty olive]

https://tenor.com/view/squid-game-gi-hun-fortnite-quandale-dingle-daqavious-dingle-gif-25975701

[somber prawn]

ah ok so u probably got your acceptance in december right?

[cosmic mango]

no i applied RD

[granite briar]

i did not apply for lateral since i just found a different way to get priority registration lol

[cosmic mango]

i gorgot

to apply

[somber prawn]

oh lmao

[cosmic mango]

early

[somber prawn]

ok so u just applied to both at the same time

damn it i didnt know 😔

[cosmic mango]

no worries

i think that

they have the lateral admission thing

[raven trench]

Ok housing looks cool tho

[cosmic mango]

where you can apply to get into honors

after freshman year at college

[somber prawn]

ok but while everyone is here, did anyone get any scholarships other than the oos waiver, and the honors thing?

[mighty olive]

i got national merit

[somber prawn]

ok thats chill

nice job

[granite briar]

i got the vires scholarship when i applied last year

which is 4k/yr

[somber prawn]

i #never took the psat unfortunately

so i never qualified for nat merit

[somber prawn]

isnt that an in-state scholarship?

[granite briar]

uhh i was an in state applicant so probably

[somber prawn]

ok cool

[raven trench]

Who got the oos waiver?

[granite briar]

you getting the OOS tuition waiver makes fsu very, very compelling

our in state tuition is 6k a year

[somber prawn]

oh really?? that cheap? 🧐

idk ive applied to so many private universities (okay not a ton but enough) that i was lowkey expecting like 20k minimum 😭

like northeastern hasnt offered me any aid yet, and its 90 mfing thousand a year

like are u joking?

[granite briar]

20k ish is our OOS rate before the waiver

[granite briar]

northeastern has been either insanely generous or insanely stingy depending on the kid it seems

[somber prawn]

ya, well tbf i didnt submit my css profile on time because i forgot, so they still haven't finalized my need based aid

but I wasnt offered any merit based scholarships which kinda surprised me since I like to think I have pretty competitive stats 🤷

[raven trench]

No that's just tuition

[granite briar]

and btw what state are you from?

[somber prawn]

unfortunately Tennessee lol

[raven trench]

COA in state is 25k ish and oos around 40k

[granite briar]

florida is an upgrade lmao

[somber prawn]

man i just dont wanna end up at UTK or UA 😭

but like UTK will be maybe 9k a yr if i go there bc i get so much aid for being in state

but i nono wannaaaaaaa

aghhh

[granite briar]

whats your major?

[somber prawn]

poli sci

[granite briar]

pre law too or

[somber prawn]

yes

[granite briar]

fsu is in the state capital

tons of state agencies and NGOs here

we're pretty heavy on poli sci as a result

poli sci and criminal justice both have to be like top 5 majors here

[somber prawn]

ooh okay that's helpful info

[granite briar]

from usnews

[somber prawn]

ya I applied to fsu bc I heard they had a good law program

but also it wasn't hard to apply either so i thought i might as well

[granite briar]

yeah just common app essay

[mighty olive]

guys

so

when i get into UF i can say "fuck FSU" right?

[austere birch]

I give u permission

[mighty olive]

fuck FSU

[austere birch]

When you get into UF

Then you can say fuck FSU

Not yet

[mighty olive]

alr

hmm

so

fsu is a school

we all know that

Hey - if you were admitted check https://apply.fsu.edu/portal/status?tab=status - some of the tabs on https://apply.fsu.edu/apply/status?tab=status dont show on it

There are two portals lmao

@granite briar question

[granite briar]

answer

[mighty olive]

which tour should i take if my college isnt on either

[granite briar]

what are the options

and what is your college

[mighty olive]

garnett and gold

arts and sciences

Our GARNET TOUR will showcase the EAST SIDE of campus. Guests will see the College of Business, Social Science & Public Policy, Criminology, Music, and Fine Arts. Additionally, the tour includes stops at Strozier Library, the Suwannee Dining Room, and the Health & Wellness Center, and more.
Our GOLD TOUR is designed to showcase the WEST SIDE of campus. Guests will see the Psychology Building, College of Medicine, Education Building, and the Chemistry Building. Additionally, the tour will include Dirac Science Library, the Seminole Cafe Dining Hall, campus recreation venues and more.

[granite briar]

garnet tour

[mighty olive]

okie

why tho

just wondering :3

[granite briar]

thats the "main" part of campus

[mighty olive]

alr

[granite briar]

it goes to strozier and suwannee, which are the main library and dining room on campus

[mighty olive]

okie

also

does fsu honors usually mean uf regular or nah

like stats equate

[granite briar]

i think the honors programs target different types of people so i wouldnt really equate them

at FSU i wanna say our honors program leans more towards STEM majors/research opportunities as well as recruiting out of state students

im not sure what UF aims for with their honors college

@mighty olive do you happen to know what classes you would be taking in fall? im gonna search our catalog to get a ballpark of which buildings theyre in on campus

[acoustic lynx]

FSU accepted me for CE! Now a long and grueling wait for March 14.

[magic glade]

if i got in but no scholarship in my letter should i just rescind now or will they release more scholarships

[haughty igloo]

I did

Does fsu have merit scholarships?

Just a little bit more would make it affordable for me

[raven trench]

Congrats 🎉!! If you don't mind sharing, what approximate stats did u have?

Yes fsu has merit scholarships but I think they hand them out with acceptance letters

And idt they give a lot of need based aid either

[mighty olive]

too much work for you

i can do it on my own

[mighty olive]

wiggle

why is COA only 13 hours a semester?

and summer is only 6 credits

is FSU not flat rate?

huh

fsu does not have flat rate tuition

this is odd

[mighty olive]

someone on twitter said their kid didnt get in with "high stats"...

3.9 weighed, jv athletics 27 act

thats all

oh sorry

3.95 weighed

he went to Evangelical Christian School

[austere birch]

27 act 😭

[haughty igloo]

1530 sat
A*A*A* in a levels (probably the same as a 4.0)
International

I don't know what other stats might be relavent so lmk

[mighty olive]

I had 1420, 4.0 uw/4.18 sw, nm semis

and i got a full ride!

:3

[haughty igloo]

Nationals be like

[mighty olive]

Internationals be like

[granite briar]

idk i don’t make the rules

[granite briar]

no florida school is

[mighty olive]

wait

uf isnt flat rate

wtf

Oh

I see

its not flat rate

Hmm

Time to make a really good college budgeting spreadsheet

actually no

ima just use one online

[raven trench]

Thanks that's great! I had similar stats as an oos applicant but intl school

1570 sat and 95/100 overall (4.0 when converted to us gpa system)

But didn't get any waiver or merit aid

Maybe there's no set cut off/formula?

[haughty igloo]

What're your ECs like?

[raven trench]

Some research + shadowing + tutoring + internship + community service

Tbf I took a gap yr

But I just called them..they said it's because there's one grade on my entire four yr transcript which is not an A (I was sick and it's literally a 1 mark difference 79 instead of 80, which is the cut off)

[haughty igloo]

Damn that sucks

Then being petty not the grade lol

[simple grove]

Wait FSU told you why they rejected you?

[raven trench]

No they accepted me but didn't give me an oos waiver (for a difference of 1 mark lol)

Will prob try again later to talk to someone else if possible

But even without aid at least fsu isn't as expensive as other oos unis

[haughty igloo]

That's true

But I feel like you could easily get it tdoen to 25k after scholarships

[mighty olive]

fun fact

if you get out of state fee waiver as an in stater for some reason they will switch your fee waiver to vires scholarship

same thing applies to florida prepaid

any oos waivers who get florida prepaid will have their waiver changed to vires scholarship plus in state tuition

🔥

wiggle

which is better

landis

or jennie murphree

or deviney

idk

the fsu buildings look old asf

pls tell me they look better on the inside

[simple grove]

OHHH okay

Then yeah it’s prob just strictly gpa based

for the scholly

[granite briar]

some of them are “historic” as FSU likes to call it yes

azalea and magnolia were built in 2017, dorman and devine’s in 2015

but in reality dorm age doesn’t matter tbh

i lived in landis over the summer and am in one of the new ones now, it’s not really any different

[granite briar]

if in university honors i would go landis

it’s also just an excellent location

i have friends in jennie murphree and they’re fine with it

you can’t really go wrong with any dorm here except salley lol

[haughty igloo]

What's wrong either salley

[simple grove]

what’s your major

Compare their programs

[granite briar]

from my research fsu has a standalone biochem major while at uf it’s a concentration under the normal chemistry major

idk how science works so i would compare the classes yeah

FSU has been investing heavily into chemistry, the department has one of the newest buildings on campus

[mighty olive]

fsu vs ucf for cs

[simple grove]

Meh

equal enough

fsu >>> ucf every single day of the week IMO

I think fsu has more prestige and it’s just generally more fun

But that’s just my opinion

[granite briar]

no it’s the gospel

my friend took FSU over UCF for BME

[simple grove]

I just asked my bf (who’s a cs major at uf) and he went “fsu is wayy better.” and I asked if he meant rank wise and he went “yes!”

Also I think the opportunities at fsu just out class those at ucf

[granite briar]

especially on an opportunities per student basis

ucf is very overcrowded

[simple grove]

that’s one thing I love about uf that I think fsu also does well, there are SO MANY insanely talented people who have created amazing student orgs that I can join which rlly enrich your experience here + set you up for postgrad life

[simple grove]

true

I mean I was fully prepared to go to fsu over ucf had I gotten rejected from uf

like genuinely without a second thought..

[granite briar]

i just didn’t even apply to UCF

[simple grove]

so obviously I’m biased because of my own opinions

[simple grove]

I only applied because I preferred it to unf and usf

so it was my safety

[granite briar]

i applied to those two instead lmao

unf is surprisingly good for business

[simple grove]

unf would have to pay me $1 million to go there

I refused to stay in jax

[granite briar]

usf is ehhh but it’s a better campus than ucf and my two besties were going there

[austere birch]

Is unf an actually good school

I never heard anything Abt it

[simple grove]

it has decent business and nursing programs

I think that for a safety it’s not the worst thing ever

• the cost is good and they’re known to give out good scholarships I think

[austere birch]

Guys for a safety

Is it bad to go to one

[simple grove]

No

I mean ucf was my safety but it’s still a good school

[austere birch]

I can't afford uf

It's actually so depressing

[simple grove]

Are you oos?

[austere birch]

Yes

[simple grove]

):

yeah that is very sad

[granite briar]

formerly in state iirc

[austere birch]

40 grand

I don't have 40 grad

[simple grove]

???

how’s it 40

[austere birch]

They said my estimated cost is Abt 46 a yr

I got 6 grand merit

So 40 left over

Tuition alone is 28

[simple grove]

the only price tags that are REAL are your housing and tuition imo

[austere birch]

Housing is whatever u guys pay ig

But tuition is insane

[simple grove]

like your cost of food, transportation, etc. is so low

[austere birch]

My in state school tuition is like half that

[granite briar]

FSU 10k cheaper tuition just saying

[simple grove]

oh yeah def stay instate

[simple grove]

hey you get what you pay for

[austere birch]

If I do it'll be free

But uf is a better school

[simple grove]

what are your instate options?

[austere birch]

Uga

[granite briar]

SKULL

[simple grove]

uga is still pretty good

[granite briar]

stay in state 😭

[simple grove]

for business especially

[austere birch]

I get it wiggle

[austere birch]

I'm not business

[simple grove]

Oh

What are you

[granite briar]

uga is literally fsus twin just arguably better at stem fields

[austere birch]

Premed

Preferably

I'm alr in

Like honors and everything

[granite briar]

what academic major

[austere birch]

I'm bio rn but my advisor recs me swap to regenerative bioscience

Gives me more research opporutnies

[granite briar]

hmm

if research is of interest to you that could be worth

[austere birch]

I just want to boost my chances of getting into med school

UGA is opening one by 2026

So I could be ready by the time they're ready to admit the first class

I got into UF as a bio major so if that adds any context

[granite briar]

which comes down to gpa, mcat, and clinical/volunteering hours right

[austere birch]

And shadowing but yeah

[granite briar]

both UF and UGA are R1 research universities

afaik the opportunities should be very similar

being premed though i would take the full ride since med school is so expensive

[austere birch]

Wiffle

Wiggle*

Thank you

U r my fave member of this server

[granite briar]

thanks i get that a lot

[austere birch]

Braggart

Jk

[granite briar]

real

[mighty olive]

you know what my mom says

exact quote

"uf is a party school with lots of drugs"

[simple grove]

I hate to break it to her but there are drugs at every school

and parties at every school

[austere birch]

It wouldn't be university without drugs

[mighty olive]

she said she didnt have drugs at her school

university of illinois chicago

[simple grove]

I guarantee she did

[austere birch]

Then she was what do you call it? Um not invited?

Okay that was real mean

[simple grove]

she just didn’t look hard enough, or chose not to look

[austere birch]

I'm sorry lil bro

[mighty olive]

if this wasnt funny i would be mad. this is funny so i take no offense

but likde

she was at UIC

transfered to loyola

and then did nursing school at kennesaw state

makes sence she transfered to a catholic school

💀

[austere birch]

Hahahaa

Kenessaw

No drugs in kenessaw

HAHAHA

[mighty olive]

she was a nursing student who lived off campus

i mean

[acoustic lynx]

Can I pay housing deposit to FSU before committing?

[granite briar]

i believe so

its just non refundable if you do not end up going to fsu

[acoustic lynx]

When people talk about internships, do these internships happen during the academic year or during summers? Some people say UCF has better internships than FSU for CE / EE just because of UCF proximity to Orlando . But if internships happen during summer can I relocate for an internship for the duration? Or do they have remote internships?

[mighty olive]

Depends on the internship

You can always relocate

[granite briar]

almost always summer, and yeah it’s most common at least at FSU to do your internship in home city (miami/jacksonville/orlando/tampa etc)

[acoustic lynx]

When do I need to start getting internships ? After the freshman or sophomore year?

[mighty olive]

yo whats a good first year english course

[granite briar]

wdym...

you dont have a choice

enc 1101 then enc 2135 is the mandatory english sequence

[mighty olive]

huh

i saw at UF that if you have above a 640 SAT ebrw score

you didnt have to take enc 1101

[granite briar]

most people have taken AP lit/lang

to get out of 1101

[mighty olive]

i took lang

but im not so sure about my ap scores

[granite briar]

are you taking in may?

[mighty olive]

yes

but

last year i got a 3 and 2 2s because i shitted the writing sections

[granite briar]

you only need a 3 for credit

[granite briar]

which exams?

[mighty olive]

ap comp sci princip was a 3, ap wh was a 2, ap stats was a 2

i talked with my counselor

told him what i wrote basically

and he said

[granite briar]

apwh is multiple choice/short answer heavy i thought

[mighty olive]

that i didnt do well on writing

[mighty olive]

i mean

[granite briar]

i got a 4 on it without writing a single word for the LEQ

[mighty olive]

how tf

i took a wh pt after

[granite briar]

i probably had 90%+ raw score on mcq

[mighty olive]

i got a 41/50 on multiple choice or smth

but i got really low writing scores

because i just dont know AP writing

[granite briar]

its very formulaic

just go points hunting

[mighty olive]

alr

so

[granite briar]

homeschool probably cant teach it nearly as well as in person but try youtube

[mighty olive]

my structure was in wh for essays

[mighty olive]

i do virtual

[granite briar]

same thing in this day and age

[mighty olive]

so ima prob book an hour with my teacher in office hours so we can go over the essays

[mighty olive]

zoom vs youtube

[granite briar]

that would be good yeah

[mighty olive]

[mighty olive]

yeah

splendid

magnificent, if i may

as well done as a stake

*steak

my autocorrect said stake smh

[granite briar]

a steak shouldnt be well done

[mighty olive]

yeah ik

medium rare

[mighty olive]

ynow

my sister likes her ramen beef

not well done

but congratulations

[topaz charm]

medium >>

lowkey i’m going to order my next steak as medium rare because they lowkey cook it too much

[raven trench]

Anyone considering fya programs? London/Valencia?

[mighty olive]

i like medium rare personally

[mighty olive]

Hey - for all the new Seminoles who fucking HATE duo authentication, set it up on your device and install the chrome extension Auto 2FA. It connects to your duo authenticator and makes it easier to authenticate.

Just a tip

Since FSU's 2FA is shit 😭

No text messages?

No phone calls?

Crazy

Also what the hell is Pre-CS? Is it just training you not to shower?

[raven trench]

Ig everyone's myfsu page shows pre-major (I have pre-comp bio) as we'll declare our majors after completing pre reqs/gen ed reqs in our first yr

[timber warren]

easily hackable

[topaz charm]

i wish i knew this sooner 💔

[topaz charm]

it’s because you’re not officially admitted into the major yet, you will be once you finish its pre reqs

[topaz charm]

typically it changes around the shift to junior year

[mighty olive]

i mean

ok

[mighty olive]

you can still set it up

[acoustic lynx]

When are the admitted students days at FSU?

[topaz charm]

i will

[mighty olive]

yw

:3

[magic glade]

did everyone get this

[haughty igloo]

I did

[magic glade]

[mighty olive]

41% of florida kids

20% of non florida kids

overall 33%

[tall light]

tuff pfp

[granite briar]

do you plan on dorming all 4 years

being under 18 makes it hard to sign a lease

[mighty olive]

[granite briar]

i just finished the housing process for next year

i was unable to get an apartment style room

but it is what it is

at least im with someone i know, and itll be so much cheaper than off campus

[simple grove]

They don’t

They won’t even let u in to tailgates if you’re under 18

[mighty olive]

hey question

is it better to take COP3014 Programming I or COP 3363 Introduction to C++

ima do 3363

[granite briar]

you were admitted for summer B.

plan accordingly!

[mighty olive]

wait

am i stupid?

wha

how do i pick only summer b courses

oh no

theres no summer b cop courses

ynw idc

lets take my entire summer b as exploratory gen eds

im taking art of being human (cuz my mom says i have no humanity in myself, so maybe learning the art of being human would help)
and intro to sociology (cuz my mom says i will never be a functioning member of society, so studying society may help me)

yo

is it normal that when you try and generate your schedule every schedule is the exact same

all 400 of em

COP 3330
DATA, ALGO. AND PROGRAMMING I

COP 3363
INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING

ENC 2135
RESEARCH, GENRE, AND CONTEXT

MAC 2312
CALC W/ANALYTIC GEOMETRY II

PSB 2000
INTRO TO NEUROSCIENCE

these are my courses (fall)

[granite briar]

wdym 400

[granite briar]

this is the way to go

get some boring gen eds out of the way

[granite briar]

remove the checkmark on enc 2135 and see how many there are

[mighty olive]

what does the checkmark even do?!

they are all le same

[granite briar]

puts the course in your schedule

[mighty olive]

oh

[granite briar]

also id personally clear the no class before 10/after 4

[mighty olive]

what times work better

[granite briar]

might as well see all options available to you

we have classes that start at 9:45 and some that end 4:20 that are cut off by your search

[granite briar]

basically yeah, just in a resume format

[raven trench]

Hey is there a co '29 fsu server?

[simple grove]

Should be! Use your fsu email to search

I think it’s in the bottom one

It’ll ask if you want to find your school servers

[mighty olive]

[hallow walrus]

dudes like hen is rolling decision coming out going nuts rn

[topaz charm]

did they come out?

i’m curious

[hallow walrus]

they did

I mean, at least for me

[somber prawn]

Ayoo im at the FSU campus rn. Anyone got any suggestions for food or anywhere specific to visit?

[simple grove]

@granite briar

[simple grove]

They have a cute coffee shop on their campus next to the urban outfitters

[granite briar]

the urban outfitters closed

[granite briar]

on campus i just get chick-fil-a but in the surrounding area i like little masa and madison social

both are easily walkable from the pensacola parking garage

[simple grove]

WHAAAAT

why?

[granite briar]

i have no clue

but i also never went

[simple grove]

maybe you would’ve saved it if you had gone more

[granite briar]

are you um still on campus…

[simple grove]

@granite briar there’s a shooter at fsu?

[granite briar]

yeah

[simple grove]

that’s so scary bro ): hoping you and everyone you know are okay

[granite briar]

yes

[somber prawn]

Unfortunately I am

We're locked down in the theater next to the student union

Came in for the post-tour questions when a student came running in alerting us of the active shooter 😟

We're safe though. Unfortunately my family is NOT happy about this right now, and will likely not wanting me committing now. But that's an issue for later I guess 😞

[granite briar]

understandably so...

[uncut flame]

Are y’all ok

Oh didn’t read

That’s gotta be so scary I’m sorry

[primal kelp]

@granite briar are you okay

we're all under lockout right now

[granite briar]

yeah

[granite briar]

damn

[somber prawn]

Did something happen at uf?

[ruby granite]

Stay safe wiggle

[simple grove]

Oh my god that’s so scary

[somber prawn]

We're all right. We're still in lockdown though as the police search the perimeters

[simple grove]

Idk if it’s true but I heard that one of the shooters was still on the loose

Not sure if that’s outdated info tho

[brittle nimbus]

Oh shit

Just saw the news about fsu

🙏

[somber prawn]

We were let out abt half an hour ago, but it's just so crazy that the ONE day I choose to visit for less than 4 hours just happens to have such a crazy event occur 😭

Anyways it sounds like there were few injuries and i dont think any casualties yet, so I'm glad mostly everyone is okay.

[tall light]

damn

hope yall are okay

[somber prawn]

Update 😔

[uncut flame]

My heart goes out to all the families

[heavy gate]

popping in here today after learning about what happened yesterday

wishing yall at fsu safety and recovery during these hard times

[primal kelp]

Dropped off some flowers on the steps of the Union and attended the vigil today

Amazing seeing this entire city come together for this

One of the victims was a figurehead of our community. Assistant football coach at our historic, beloved high school and a founder of one of our best local restaurants

That same restaurant was packed tonight

[somber prawn]

anyways, long story short, I'm officially committed to college now! 😄

[somber prawn]

My family and i agreed to not let the shooting influence my decision since school shootings unfortunately are not uncommon, and it wasn't fair to pin that on one specific school. Overall I thought the campus was beautiful, and everything I heard about the school looked incredible, so I'm excited for fall!

[granite briar]

omg yay congrats

[somber prawn]

im kinda upset i didnt get to explore the campus fully, but shit happens 😅

[granite briar]

i had a lot of fun meandering about during orientation

[granite briar]

what are you majoring in?

[somber prawn]

pre-political sciences apparently

im assuming that'll turn into poli sci after gen-ed tho, right?

[granite briar]

yeah

[somber prawn]

okay then ya, thats correct lol

some schools i applied as pre-law, but realized id rather do poli sci and not force myself into a useless major if i decide to not do law school

[granite briar]

im pre-accounting so at least in college of business we had to take 7 pre-reqs to be eligible

this fall i’ll be accounting accounting

[tall light]

It breaks my heart, there were people who went to MSD and FSU and had to live through this twice 💔

[marsh sierra]

that feeling when you recieve a letter from FSU saying you have been accepted and that they are making you an admissions packet AFTER recieving your admissions packet and being accepted:

[somber prawn]

ermmm what the flip? @granite briar

lowkey i have multiple questions abt what i needa do rn lol

for the orientation thing, I should be able to sign up at this point right? Or do slots open in May or something??

I remember it saying something about May 5th, but I think that was the deadline so im confused

[granite briar]

not sure since i was summer but my guess is they’re pausing signups while sorting this situation out

i would call tomorrow perhaps

[somber prawn]

oh okay

Ya, I guess now is kind of an unfortunate time to be doing all this

it's just on my tour they mentioned so many dates/deadlines that were BEFORE april that I completely missed, so im trying to catch up 😟

like I thought I was supposed to have until may 1st to make my decision 😭

[somber prawn]

They aren't closed for Easter?

[granite briar]

oopsies my days are all messed up

i’d call on monday once the school resumes normal business operations

[somber prawn]

alrighty

man i just REALLY hope it isnt too late to look for a roommate, bc they said during my tour that the deadline was 4/16 and I was like today is the 17th ma'am??? 😭

[topaz charm]

if that was the deadline then you’re most likely having a random roommate

[somber prawn]

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[topaz charm]

lowkey i found mine out pretty late into summer (mid july i think?) so if anything, just get the stuff you need for yourself before you buy things that can be shared (vacuum, broom, whatnot)

honestly i know some people with random roommates that actually like them

a lot

[somber prawn]

u dont understand

random roomies are always the same sex as u right?

i cant live with 3 men...

i cant...

[topaz charm]

depending

why would you have to live with 3 men?

[somber prawn]

isnt it 4 to a dorm?

[topaz charm]

no 😭 wth

[somber prawn]

oh is it 2?

[topaz charm]

there are some but i’m pretty sure most dorms are 2 to a dorm

[somber prawn]

oh

[topaz charm]

like almost all

[somber prawn]

the tour guide said 4

[topaz charm]

jenny murphy has 4

idk if it’s ALL 4

reynolds has 3

[topaz charm]

^ same thing applies

but most dorms have 2 i believe

and you share a bathroom with your next door neighbors

[somber prawn]

is it 1 bathroom for 4 ppl?

[simple grove]

I love how uf and fsu dorms have the same/similar names

Like we have Broward, Jennings, murphree

[topaz charm]

i think so

[topaz charm]

if you’re referring to this, then yes

there are some that have private bathrooms but i think they’re like $800 more expensive

[granite briar]

typically yes, and both your dorm room and possibly shared bathroom will be with students of the same sex

all dorms on campus have suite style bathrooms

the older buildings are more likely to have a triple

i’m pretty sure that newer buildings (azalea magnolia dorman deviney wildwood degraff) don’t even have triples

[somber prawn]

for the orientation dining plan, do u need to buy one for each person, or will one ticket work for both me and my dad?

not even sure if anyone would know the answer to that, so i'll probs just buy one ticket

[granite briar]

DONT BUY THE DINING PLAN IT WAS SO ASS

youll be in the union you can get starbucks/panera/panda/pollo tropical/pizza

[somber prawn]

ok welllll

already did lmao

i only bought one tho

i also opted in to the stay overnight program thingy

is that any good or is it just shite

[granite briar]

its ok

i did it

tbh staying in hotel with parent is mildly better but its an interesting experience

they put us in wildwood hall which is like

new-ish?

[somber prawn]

oh ok'

[somber prawn]

@granite briar help 😭
What are the best dorms to put as my preferences? Like what're the differences between the dorms

I didn't get to tour the dorms when I visited, so I have no idea what to put

[granite briar]

what is your contract number

[somber prawn]

havent even gotten that yet

fsu is NOT making this housing stuff easy

like my dashboard didnt even tell me i needed to complete it, or where to find it

i had to google stuff to figure it out

[granite briar]

oh maybe you get that after completing this part

[somber prawn]

so far I've put in my request for a housing contract, but I cant find where to pay

i think its after this ya

[granite briar]

you might need to wait for the charge to post to your bill

[somber prawn]

ok, but could u describe the housing options a little please 🥺

[granite briar]

the order i put was

ragans
single shared
double private
double shared
triple private
triple shared
mccollum
salley

[granite briar]

so basically

all dorms are kinda similar

the newest buildings are azalea magnolia dorman deviney

6 floors entirely doubles

the 2nd newest are degraff and wildwood

5 floors, i think also entirely doubles?

degraff is mildly undesirable since it’s across tennessee street and wildwood is quite close to the band practice field lets just say

then there’s all the smaller dorm buildings on the east ish side of campus, i think fsu calls them the historic halls

old exteriors but the interiors seem pretty similar to the newer buildings tbh, they’re closest to the green/library/dining hall

[somber prawn]

okayokay

[granite briar]

triples beware though

[somber prawn]

i dont get to choose the building though, do I?

[granite briar]

you do i think right after this step? or at least i recall ranking buildings

at the end of the day any dorm that isn’t salley will be fine and dandy

[somber prawn]

oh salley is the bastard child of the dorms?

[granite briar]

it’s the one everybody shits on

[somber prawn]

oof

[granite briar]

it’s kinda far from the main area of campus but

it’s close to the stem stuff

[somber prawn]

well there's a chance i'll end up there bc im gonna get a rlly bad housing number lol

[granite briar]

and one of the dining halls

[somber prawn]

do u live on campus?

[somber prawn]

oh also what's wrong with triples

[granite briar]

yeah and i’ll be returning on campus next year

[somber prawn]

i mean i wouldnt wanna live with 3 ppl tbh, but is it especially bad for any particular reason?

[granite briar]

some people don’t like living with an extra person that’s all

i lived in a triple for summer

[somber prawn]

and whats the difference between the private vs shared options?

[granite briar]

the room is larger to accommodate three people so it’s fine

[granite briar]

bathroom

[somber prawn]

oh so shared is one bathroom per floor and private is one per room?

[granite briar]

shared is you and next room share, private is only your room

there aren’t any floor bathrooms at fsu thankfully

[somber prawn]

ok so why on earth would i want to share lmfao

[granite briar]

because the vast vast majority of rooms are shared bath

[somber prawn]

ya but why would i rank it above private 😭

[granite briar]

in my building i think only the accessible rooms are private bath

[somber prawn]

i dont see why thats an option

[granite briar]

exactly don’t

[somber prawn]

lowkey freakyyy

[granite briar]

price difference

private bath slightly more expensive

[simple grove]

communal bathrooms aren’t that bad 🙏

maybe I’m lying to myself who knows

[granite briar]

i like not having to go across the building to shower

[simple grove]

how far away is your bathroom?

[somber prawn]

@granite briar do u think this is a valid list? Or is it shite and i should die

im boutta leave for work but i wanna at least finish part of this

[granite briar]

yeah

[somber prawn]

also what da heck

they emailed me telling me to pay, but i dont have the option to?

[simple grove]

they’re gonna take u

[granite briar]

give it a day or so and if it doesn’t show up call somebody i guess

[somber prawn]

😟😟😟

[somber prawn]

@granite briar im getting salley aren't i

[granite briar]

it’s possible but like

also depends on how many people don’t attend

you can fill out housing deposit without committing

[marsh sierra]

bros getting salley 💀

(im kidding i have no idea)

[marsh sierra]

mine was like 4000

[somber prawn]

Hoe u aint even going here, gimme dat 😭😭😭

[marsh sierra]

already cancelled 😭

if you have any reason to get accomodations i'd file em

[somber prawn]

I have diabetes so im tryna get my endo to file my paperwork for accommodations, but i have no clue if that'll get me a better contract #

[marsh sierra]

it may get you something

idk im the disability expert but not the disability accomodations expert

[somber prawn]

there was a portion in the housing contract paperwork that mentioned accomodations for a refrigerated compartment for medicine, so im really just hoping to get that

also i kinda wanna ask for the dorm nearest to the campus hospital bc it would save me so much time picking up my medicine

[marsh sierra]

word it as "in case of an emergency due to my diabeaties, I want to be as close to emergency services as possible - specifically the campus hospital" or something

dont explicitly say that

[granite briar]

the best dorms happen to be the ones closest to CVS

[granite briar]

“diabeaties” 😭😭😭

[somber prawn]

@granite briar do u know when im gonna get my dorm, or know my roommate? Like I cant find any info on dates or anything 😭

also did rlly nobody else in this server commit to fsu this yr?

like why is there no other incoming freshman in this thread cmon now

[granite briar]

this server leans very heavily toward stem fields so uf is a more natural choice

that and we just dont have a crazy amount of people from florida

[granite briar]

lemme check my email to see when i got my assignment

[somber prawn]

ya i noticed

[granite briar]

got an email about fall housing on july 15th 💀

[somber prawn]

this server seems to have like the top 5% of applicants in here like wtf

[somber prawn]

👁️👄👁️

[granite briar]

the average SAT here is like 1480

[granite briar]

when you get assignment it will also show the name and fsu email of your roommates and suitemates

[somber prawn]

damn im gonna have to wait 2 whole months for ts??

but they only give me like a week to submit things? 😭

[granite briar]

you might get yours a week or two earlier, my year had delayed commitment deadline due to fafsa change

but probably early mid july

[somber prawn]

like WHY on earth is accommodations due the same say as commitments

i needed my doctor's signature

there's no way on earth i coulda committed and gotten my dr's signature the same day, so they might as well either make commitments due sooner, or give us more time for accommodations forms

[granite briar]

fsu housing is always a shitshow

but at least we actually have housing

[somber prawn]

bless up

[granite briar]

i highkey recommend looking off campus after freshman year

[somber prawn]

im so scared for my housing honestly

[granite briar]

im living on campus for this upcoming year and that was hell on earth to secure

[somber prawn]

thats what all my siblings did, so prolly what i'll be doing as well

im the 4th kid so 💀

[granite briar]

my brother went to a very small out of state private school so im the first in the fam for fsu

[somber prawn]

mine all went to public unis because we brokeeee

jk we werent broke when they went to college, they just didnt wanna strain my parents financially

[granite briar]

my parents didnt uh realize just how burdensome it would be

lived in trailer home and apartments throughout his time in college teehee

theyre in a much much better spot now but werent gonna let me go out of state

which was fine by me as i plan on living here after graduation anyways

[somber prawn]

oof

oh also

my parents are thinking of moving to florida while im at fsu

does fsu allow for switching from out of state tuition to in state?

i mean i got the oos waiver, but could i get some of the in state scholarships?

idk if florida does that

[granite briar]

i think as long as you can prove residency, you should be able to

[somber prawn]

hm we'll look into that if they fall through on their plans

but ya wisconsin didn't allow for that, so i had to withdraw bc they were so unreasonable with their financial aid

[granite briar]

with the oos waiver though i dont think it will be necessary to switch

unless you call up the aid office and they do you a favor

[somber prawn]

well in state kids get offered a bunch of big scholarships that oos students dont

[granite briar]

but moving in state would presumably cancel your oos waiver, idk if theyd switch it to like the in state vires scholarship

[somber prawn]

like for oos students the ONLY scholarships available are the oos full and half waivers, and the honors scholarship

and i didnt get the hnrs one bc they never sent me the application 💔

aside from private schols obv

[granite briar]

main one is vires scholarship which is what i have, 4k a year

bright futures requires graduating from a florida high school

[somber prawn]

darn

man i hate in state shit like stop favoring the ppl nearby 😔

i get why but like...

guys... stop this...

this isnt you

[granite briar]

#federalism at it again

[somber prawn]

https://tenor.com/view/wolf-alone-gif-11375996495065887435

[granite briar]

what would be cool to see would be an inter-state compact

like florida and georgia are best buds

we should totes give eachother in state tuition

[somber prawn]

any chance florida and tennessee would do that 🥺

like both citizens are equally stupid and reckless. They'd get along swell 🥀

[granite briar]

only if memphis sinks into the mississippi

[somber prawn]

would honestly be a service

memphibians

[granite briar]

true...

[topaz charm]

i miss fsu already 💔

[marsh sierra]

they do

they do switch it to vires

[marsh sierra]

where did my top5 shitpost go 🥀

@granite briar very good lyrics

[granite briar]

can you explain to me what’s so funny about this format of post

you’ve made probably a dozen of these covering various subjects recently

as far as i’m concerned is just sloppy chat flood and off topic from any relevant discussion

[marsh sierra]

nevermind

[marsh sierra]

My music teacher just came up to me and said "I hate your shoes! They look so awful!" I wondered why. Then it hit me. I was wearing the UF shoes. He was wearing an FSU shirt.

[granite briar]

at it again i see

[marsh sierra]

come on

[somber prawn]

@granite briar i just had orientation the other day btw. It was fine, but when i did my class registration i had to rush, and now i have 3/6 online classes 😭

how the HECK do i work this fricking website to edit my schedule

i do NOT want 3 online classes ;-;

literally ALL of the intro to poli-sci classes my advisor recommended me are online and im struggling to find the list of credit-equivolent classes :(

[somber prawn]

Nvm! I don't need help bc i spent the past 3 hrs figuring out my schedule and i did it! 16 credit hrs, no friday classes, and no morning classes :)

and only 1 online class now but ive heard its SUPER easy, and it's a pre-req for later classes im interested in

[granite briar]

yippie!

schedule planning takes so much time but it’s worth it

[marsh sierra]

@granite briar honestly i should have gone to fsu

[marsh sierra]

nice

(now you will have to flip it over! )

[granite briar]

i still think UCF was your best choice

[marsh sierra]

i had some other stuff against ucf (specifically the "alleged" (not really alleged) usage of forced labor in the food department)

[granite briar]

you dont work in the food department its fine

how do you think they get the money to cover your scholarship

youre gonna live in a gainesville coat closet now

[marsh sierra]

actually i found a nice place off campus to stay

my dad just doesnt wanna cosign the lease

so im fucked
