I'm applying to Florida State University, and I was wondering if they require letters of recommendation as part of the application process. If so, how many LORs do they need? Can anyone provide some insight?
Florida State University (FSU) does not require letters of recommendation as part of the undergraduate application process. While you can choose to submit them, they are considered optional and not a requirement for admission. However, if you feel that a letter of recommendation might provide additional context or support for your application, you can submit up to two. These can be from teachers, counselors, or other individuals who can speak to your character, work ethic, and achievements.
Keep in mind that FSU admissions focus primarily on your academic achievements, such as your high school transcript, GPA, and any standardized test scores. So while letters of recommendation can offer some added perspective, they may not be as critical in the decision-making process as your academic credentials. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide if you want to include any LORs in your application materials. Good luck with your application!
