Where to focus next
If you only have time for one thing this month, do this:
- Read 2 admitted-student essays from Florida A&M (search official admissions site or Reddit r/famu). Notice the level of specificity — that's the bar.
- Write the ‘why this school’ supplement first, before anything else. If you can't fill 250 words with school-specific reasons, pick a different school.
- Find one current student to ask about their experience — admissions offices often connect prospective applicants with current students. The follow-up email becomes specific essay material.
