I lived at Florida Towers (another Phoenix property) my last year of undergrad. It was ok, obviously they are not the nicest newest places but it was fine. We didn't get our deposit back which sucked but other than that I liked living there. You get in free to potbellies if you tell them you live in Collegewood, Florida Towers, etc. Its Pot's way of appeasing the residents from all the noise they make though I never really heard any noise. Its also a 5 min walk to the Strip.ShawnMegan wrote:I had my heart set on UF for a long time.. and due to a change in my personal circumstances (freed up to leave Gainesville), and being very very impressed with Admitted Students Day and the overall consideration of the faculty and staff, and the excitement of all of the students I spoke with, I have decided to attend FSU. I'm planning to get a place at Collegewood, most likely, since I don't need a ton of space and I don't want roommates, just lots of students as neighbors. I'm hoping that the location will make up for the grungy nature of the place, and I hope I can meet some more people around that area to hang out with. I've lived in Tallahassee most of my life, but completed my undergrad at UF and I'm a huge gator fan. (I plan to join the LitiGators at FSU - I'm glad there are others!)
Any opinions on the Phoenix South properties? I'm not extremely picky.. proximity to bars, other students, and the law school are the most important factors for my living situation. I'd like to be at the center of both the academic and social aspects of law school.
Any other gators making the move to FSU?
Also.. if you know of any law students who currently live at collegewood.. tell them to contact me via TLS so that they can "refer" me and get the $50.

Went on a visit yesterday! Pretty nice. Except for the library. I think my elementary school library is bigger.

noleknight16 - did you tour all three floors of the research center? It is pretty impressive when you see the whole thing.

I heard that if you're accepted they give you a phone call? I'm not sure if they do this for everyone but if true and we dont get a phone call I guess its a denial or waitlist?cass1230 wrote:called yesterday, because obviously i'm impatient, they said they should have decisions by today but they go out snail mail -_________________-

So the status checker lets you know if you're wait-listed?

Hey is anyone familiar with the stipulations for scholarships. It does not seem to be based on a class rank like other schools? Also what is the typical stipulation for FSU?

Re: FSU c/o 2015 applicants
Waitlisted via email just a shade under six months after I went complete (10/24/11). FSU was the last school I was waiting to hear from, but I've already moved to Knoxville, my wife took a job with UT, and we went house hunting this afternoon so you might say I was already leaning toward Tennessee. Congratulations to all those who made it and condolences to those who didn't. Best of luck to everyone, especially those still deciding where they'll be for the next 3 years.

Does anyone know if "decision made will arrive by mail" is a rejection?

Status
Term:
Year: 2012
Program Time: FT
Degree: JD
Current Status: Decision made and will arrive by mail.
Current Status Date: 4/20/2012
Fairly certain this means either a waitlist or a rejection, since I'm fairly certain you get a phone call if you've been accepted. Oh well... Anyone else get this status today?
Edit: Swooped above by cass... we're in the same boat

I highly doubt they'll be calling admitted students simply because it would be too arduous at this point. They haven't admitted anyone for months.
