The way FSU works is that if you are accepted during the December decision date, you are able to apply for housing whenever the university opens the application (usually mid-January). The application gives everyone a priority number and the sooner, the better.

For a quick comparison of how crazy the application has gotten: when I applied back in December 2008 as a freshman, I applied mid-afternoon the day applications opened (they opened the same minute that decisions went out, at 12:01am eastern) and my priority number was in the 500s; this year on the first date the application was available (sometime in mid-January), I’m pretty sure that the priority number was in the thousands.

Of course, FSU seems to slightly alter the way they do the application in some way each year. But this is generally how it works.
