QUESTIONS:
Anyone have any idea how long it takes to get the acceptance letter in the mail? UCF acct says accepted but I haven’t received the letter yet.
Anyone have any idea when merit aid information is sent out?
Hi - My daughter got accepted recently and we received the official letter in the mail exactly a week later so you should be getting it soon. We are VA OOS also. I’ve read in the facts section on the UCF website that you should hear about scholarships in about 2 to 3 weeks after acceptance. Good Luck!
@Mom2NND Thanks! She has wanted to go to UCF since her sophomore year! She needs a scholarship in order for us to agree. She’s undeclared in a major so it’s hard to justify paying OOS tuition when we have good in state choices. She’s also applying to JMU and VA Tech. She was accepted to UCF on the 20th, so we’re hoping to hear something soon. Fingers crossed! Also, my daughter is a thespian too!

Does anyone know when we will find out out scholarships? I’m hoping for the Pegasus one and I am confused on what is the gpa and scores you need? Will I get the bronze one or no?
My son applied weeks ago, they just now say they have his transcript but the portal says they now need his college transcript from his class where he took Calculus 2 ( even though it is on his high school transcript too). I paid to have it sent but assume that will take another few weeks given how long it took them to download his high school transcript. Is that usually needed for acceptance? Will that delay chance for scholarships too? He has a 30 ACT, 4.8 UW GPA (not adjusted) and 3.8 GPA UW, leads in theater, lots of STEM, AP, CLEP, about 39 credit hours of college credit. Out of State.
I applied to UCF on October 27th and in the email it said I will receive an email to set up my UCF account and I haven’t received mine yet…should I be concerned?
