<p>I'm a hopful transfer student for next fall 2007. I submitted my application early in August just so I would have it in early and I wouldn't have to worry about it. For the longest time when I would check the status it stated that they have received my application and it talked about CC students receiving preference etc etc etc.... I wasn't expecting a decision until the spring possibly summer. Now when I looked at the status it says that it is being evaluated, GPA being calculated and when that is complete a decision will be made. Does anyone know if this means that I'll receive notification earlier than next spring? Is this just how the process goes and I'll still have to wait until next spring or summer to hear anything? I'd love to hear any thoughts on personal experiences or if anyone knows why my status would of changed so soon. Thanks so much in advance.</p>
<p>I know someone who applied as a transfer last year, and he didn't have any of the deadline dates that my son had. He said they called it a "rolling decision" or "rolling admission". I forget which one it was, but it meant that the transfer students' applications are reviewed all year long. I'm sorry, but I don't know how many weeks it took from start to finish. It wasn't 7 ot 8 months though, like you're afraid it might be for you. No, nowhere near that long.</p>
<p>I do remember that he was applying as an architect student, and he was told that someone in the architecture dept. had to review his application. So if you have declared a major, the process might be delayed a little bit if your application has to be sent to that department for review, too.</p>
<p>Maybe if you call the Admissions Office, they can tell you exactly where your application is right now, and give you a better idea of when you might hear from them. They were always very nice and helpful whenever I called. Their number is 352/392-1365.</p>
<p>Good luck to you. I hope you hear soon.

<p>Thank you for the help and kind words!</p>
<p>Where are you transferring from? Curious</p>
<p>I was originally at FGCU but transferred to Edison College in Fort Myers for financial reasons. Now hopefully to U of F!</p>
<p>Anyone else know about the decisions. I'm still taking classes for this fall and next spring also so they don't even have all my transcripts. I'm in the Honors Scholar Program and Phi Theta Kappa and have about a 3.6 GPA.</p>
<p>Just keep your hopes up = )</p>
<p>Thanks and I will. Bump, anyone else have any knowledge about it?</p>
<p>I emailed the admissions office and I was informed that although my status changed when I checked it doesn't matter. They told me that they make decisions after the deadline. I probably won't receive one until next spring or summer, so I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed a little longer.</p>
