Another Transfer Question

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Florida

<p>Hi-</p>

<p>I am currently in my Sophomore year of college at UWF, but decided that I'd like to transfer so I applied to FSU and UF this past November. I was accepted at FSU, for which I am very grateful...as I have been skimming the boards and reading articles regarding the "unnatural disaster" FL schools are currently facing. My issue is this: part of me wants to just go to FSU since I am already accepted, and start getting in line for off campus housing and other arrangements that will have to be made before I attend. However, I feel that it would be wrong to do this until I am aware of my admission status at UF- unfortunately, they delayed their admission decision notification until April 25. I feel very conflicted about this, but I would feel better about making a decision if some of you that are familiar with this process at FL schools could let me know your opinion on whether or not I will even be accepted to UF...</p>

<p>Here are my stats:</p>

<p>AA from UWF (U of West Florida)
3.2 GPA
High upward trend (performed at a very average level Freshman year, recovered with a 3.7 and am anticipating a 3.9 this semester, but this is not figured into my cumulative GPA)
Strong academic schedule (19 credit hours, all prerequisites for major- Political Science- either completed or in the process of completion)</p>

<p>I'd really appreciate the input, thank you in advance...</p>

<p>Maybe I should mention that my major is NON limited access, if that has any bearing...</p>

<p>no ideas? I could really use some peace of mind... for better or for worse</p>

<p>bump, please. I'd really like to get a reply or two.</p>

<p>Well considering that Journalism, which is a limited access program, automatically accepts anyone with a 3.0+ GPA and an A.A. from a Florida college, I'd say you have a good chance of getting in.</p>

<p>dxmzan- is your information current in light of the recent budget crisis? I have read that transfers are going to be drastically cut back... do you think that all of the denied transfers are going to be less qualified than the 3.0/AA threshold?</p>
