r/fsu

I've applied to TMH to volunteer and have been rejected both times. It's really frustrating because its the only decent hospital in the area. If I had gone to school in south Florida this situation would not exist. I might be applying a little late every time but even still, it shouldn't be a competition to volunteer, with no pay at a hospital.

Title. I have received some good feedback for both programs, but curious to hear more so I can make a decision. Putting this in the direct subs for each school will bring bias, but I seek information in general. Here is a breakdown of my situation:

1. I work full-time and this will need to be completed online & asynchronously

2. I have a young family (2 kids being less than 4 years old), so super busy.

3. This will be funded by the GI Bill (21 months of benefits left at 100%) The plan is to take 2 classes per semester.

4. Accepted to FSU already, and awaiting CSU's review (both for the start of Fall 2026)

FSU was the first to accept me into any graduate program. It's been "locked in" as my plan to go this way for awhile. I like how this program was co-developed by the US Navy. As a "former" Marine, it gives me that sense of American love and pride once again, as corny as that sounds. Obtaining the INCOSE exam waiver is a huge pull.

What draws me towards CSU is the opportunity to earn the graduate certificate in Human Systems Integration along the Masters of Engineering track. Both programs offer electives in Human Factors Engineering, but I feel like that certificate is a resume booster for my interests. This program, from my understanding, also grants the INCOSE exam waiver if you earn a 87% or greater in their intro to systems course.

Happy to hear any and all feedback for either program.

Thank you to all who have answered my questions in DMs as well.

incoming freshman here, can somebody lmk how the washing/drying machines are for the dorms? are they good or bad or am I better off going to a laundromat? ik this is a weird question to ask i just have some really nice clothes and wanna know beforehand 😭

Anybody have any clue when housing assignments are coming out? I know they said early July but I’m just checking if anyone has a more definite time frame.

im going into my junior year and have taken algebra 1, geo, algebra 2, and college algebra. I can take trig/pre calc this year, but im leaning towards full year college stats instead since im not very strong at math despite good grades. Will this harm my chances of getting into FSU because i wont take calculus in high school? not intending to do a stem major

For the girls who pay for their expenses on their own, what do you guys do to afford it all? Paying for school isn’t an issue and I have a job that pays me alright so I’ve been considering rushing this fall. Are there any resources I should know about? I know payment plans are also an option but I’d like to look at other options as well if there are any. Thanks!

hi! i’m going in my freshman year in the fall and am trying to figure out how to budget for the year. i’m living on campus and a meal plan, but i was wondering how much ppl spend on other things like going out and personal expenses (laundry, cleaning etc etc)?

If you have received the OOS Waiver please drop your stats! I’m trying to access the situation for myself so i don’t get my hopes up

hi! i'm moving to tallahassee soon and i'm also looking to start hrt (testosterone specifcially) and was wondering if anyone had advice on where to go for it. i called the planned parenthood and they said they weren't offering it anymore, so i was wondering if anyone knew of any (hopefully cheap/insurance accepting) options. thanks for any help!!

TL;DR If anyone still has their iClickers from the college days and is willing to donate them or sell it for like $1 PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I'm a public school teacher trying to collect a set. Ask your friends!

Hi!! I'm currently a high school teacher and am trying to acquire a set of iClickers (at a low low cost) for my classroom of about 25. I have students with learning disabilities and my honors kids in the same class, and it's typically advantageous in group work but hard to see day-to-day progress without hand grading 120 exit tickets! This will be helpful to answer anonymously to the class and quickly sort data. Most don't use them after graduation and I do know you could make 15 bucks on FB Marketplace, but I'm hoping some people are willing to part with them to invest in a good cause :) TIA!

Sincerely,

Someone who missed out on the new Union by 1 year 🙃

It has been a challenge creating a schedule without knowing which Dual Enrollment classes will satisfy which courses for pre-reqs. The counselors say they don't know for sure either. When do they actually post which classes count towards to finalize the schedule. The AP courses are easy since they are posted online, but not the DE courses.

thanks in advance!!!

I’m freaking out. I just turned 28. I had a tough upbringing, so I decided to go to college and earned my AA degree this May. I had the choice between UF and FSU, and I picked FSU because it felt right, I guess. But honestly, it’s really messing with me. I don’t think I’ll connect with people because as soon as they find out I’m a super senior, things get awkward. You wouldn’t guess my age unless I mentioned it, I suppose I’m genetically blessed. I’m a chill person who just likes to vibe. FSU culture definitely has that, but I’m just not sure, man. Any recommendations I don’t know anyone new to the area. I’ll be transferring in a junior. Ideally want to vibe. Make the best out of it fr tbh

I am planning on getting the student health insurance through FSU while I’m in graduate school. Has any had it in the past? What did you think of it? I had the student insurance at my undergraduate university, and it was honestly the best insurance I’ve ever had, and for a very reasonable price. I’m hoping the FSU insurance will be comparable. If y’all could let me know, that would be great!

I received a scholarship from a local organization and they sent it to fsu with my information 3 weeks ago. it’s still not in my portal. I tried calling the office of student finance but apparently their numbers are not monitored? who should i contact?

Does anyone know if FSU will release scores early?
