Hi i am an asian male in tennessee. So far i have applied early action to:
Ut knox (accepted)
University of georgia ( accepted)
Bama ( accepted)
Purdue ( pending)
Ga tech (pending)
Unc(pending)
I have act of 29 comp 30 super. I have a 4.3/5 weighted and 3.85/4 unweighted gpa. I am in all the honors clubs
My question is: i just applied to florida state regular decision. Will that hurt my chances of getting a lot of money scholarship wise?( i understand i miss out on some but how big of an impact is it) and do colleges give extra money to students with higher stats than others or is all the money im going to get only from scholarships and fafsa? And i cant seem to find alot of info on fsu scholarships. Am i automatically elgible without any application even for regular decision? Thanks!
You were told this last June
<<<FSU is a match (middle 50% ACT range is 26 to 30). You would need a 30 on the ACT to earn an OOS tuition waiver, which would bring tuition down from about $22K a year (OOS tuition) to about $6.5K a year (in-state tuition). FSU’s CS program is fairly good. I think FSU superscores the ACT.

FSU doesn’t have a lot of scholarships so don’t expect much/anything. FSU relies heavily on Bright Futures for merit.
If your intended major is an engineering major, note that FSU has a combined engineering division with FAMU (this includes computer engineering but not computer science). FAMU costs less and has better scholarships.

But do i have to have applied early action to receive full tuition waiver? Or is it possible to get it as regular action
since you are in TN and have the ACT and GPA for the extra scholarship for TN, if you are thinking in a tech field, have you looked at TN Tech? I know it is not a glamorous flagship, but excellent in the tech areas. Nephew (a TN resident) went there and got a great education - co-op and internship, high GPA, great job after college. He didn’t want to even consider UT(knoxville) - I think his impression was party school.
Is fsu rolling admissions?
OP - You should be talking to FSU admissions since you have specific questions that they can answer for you.
Bump - i will call admissions office on monday. But can anyone tell me if i can still qualify for fsu out of state tuition waiver if i apply regular action?(not talking about the presidential scholarship but its called like tuition reduction scholarship)
According to their website:
It doesn’t say it’s restricted to a particular application type. But if you’re concerned or have questions, you should contact Admissions.
