We realize that your senior year is a very exciting time, but it also plays a crucial role in your future. This checklist has been produced by FSU Admissions to assist you and your family with the college admissions process. Specifically, it indicates important dates/deadlines for attending FSU but can be used as a guide for other colleges. We hope that you will find this checklist helpful throughout the year. Good luck!
