Florida college deadlines

Seniors

You should be aware of some of the following deadlines:

FSU has two deadlines for admissions, October 15 and January 15.  If you are planning to apply to FSU, please try to make the first deadline.  It will more difficult to gain admission  in the second group because in the last few years, the qualifications have gone up after the first group is accepted.

In order to be considered in the first group, you must submit your completed application, pay the fee, send the transcript, and have sent ACT or. SAT scores to FSU from the testing companies. This score does not have to be the final score as you can keep updating with new test scores as the year progresses.  But if no test score is received by October 15, you will be moved to the second admissions group.

UF only has one deadline---November 1.  If you apply after the deadline, you will only be considered if space is available (and it won't be).  Again application,fee,transcript, and test scores are due.  You may update scores through Dec only.

UM-- If you applying to University of Miami, there are three ways to apply.  Early Decision is binding,  If you get accepted you are obligated to attend.  Early Action means you apply early but do not have to attend.  This is usually the best choice.  Both of these have deadlines of Nov 1.  The third way to apply is Regular decision by January.

More deadlines in a future post.
