2018 UCF Acceptance/Scholarship Thread

Hello there @Disneygirl66 ! I have applied to UCF for the fall 2018 term and unfortunately have been deferred. However, I am replying to you as I noticed that your major is hospitality. I am planning on doing the same thing. I would love to talk to you about major and stuff. I do not know how to inbox on this site XD so I’m replying to this post. Hopefully this reply does not go unnoticed and we are able to have a chat! I would love to make friends new friends from UCF before I get in (Hopefully I get in lol)

Hey @Makeitwayne !! I don’t believe we have enough posts on here yet, so I’ll just reply to you here! I’m so sorry that you’ve gotten differed and I really hope you get in!! Hopefully I’ll be able to message you soon, as I would also love to talk to you about hospitality!

it says i’ve been accepted when i go to the application status but i don’t see an option to accept my admission or pay the fee? I’m confused

@margo16 were you deferred previously?

I was waitlisted around March and the myUCF status told me I would get a decision sometime around May 1-May31. I recently went back to check on my status, and those dates were removed. Is it something I should worry about since I could be on waitlist and not get a decision? Also, I was wondering what are the chances of being waitlisted for Fall, but get accepted into Summer. At this point, I feel like I would want to get in for Summer, but I feel like my stats are not good enough. Pls help!

Does it still show that you are on the waitlist?

@Djh1220 yes.

@Djh1220 yes.

Yes.

My SAT score combined is a 1090. My ACT is a 21. When I sent in my first transcript, my unweighted was a 3.2, and my weighted was a 3.8. I am currently a full-time dual enrollment senior student, so my GPA jumped as I took those classes. They waitlisted me in March before my updated transcript was sent to them. I currently have a 3.3 UW and a 4.1 W.

I also knew somebody who had much less of a GPA than me and had a 1050 in the SAT and got accepted into summer of this year. He only went to his community college for one semester. He applied in January, and UCF accepted him around March.

Just got accepted into the summer term, after being waitlisted in March. Originally applied for fall, did not send any addition letters.

Thank you! @Djh1220

Hey how do you know if you got a Pegasus scholarship? Do you think its possible for me to have gotten one considering I only applied this month and I have 3.7 weighted GPA with 1550 Sat?

You’ll get an email letting you know that you received one. I got the Bronze with a 1350/29 and 3.9 weighted.

@Hidd3nBlad3s How long did it take for you to receive that email? I just got accepted today but I don’t see any information about any scholarships. Also I just remembered that I never filled a fafsa, which is probably a requirement now that I think about it.

@GreasyBoy congrats! Were you waitlisted? R u starting in the summer or the fall?
