anybody else waiting on notification of term changes?

<p>I was admitted for the Spring 2011 term and asked for either Summer or Fall 2010. They told me to wait sometime in late april or early may. anybody else changing their term?</p>

<p>im also waiting…im in the same situation… r u forsure going to UF?</p>

<p>I really want to but if I don’t get my term changed… i mite have to go sumwhere else and i dont like the sound of it but lets hope we both get what we want… wut term did u ask for?</p>

<p>i said either summer or fall</p>

<p>I sent them an e-mail too. I was accepted to Summer and hope to start in the Fall. The woman told me that they do not release any decisions until mid to late May. So if I were you, I would decide now what you want to do because the tuition deposit is due May 1. </p>

<p>It really is inconvenient but she told me that she has to determine whether there is any space available so they wait to make these decisions after May 1.</p>

<p>well i heard last years students heard around the last week of april. atleast u got summer instead of spring… u should go during the summer because it’s only two classes and only for one month</p>

<p>I know, I would go but I cant afford to pay it out of my pockets. I, at least, need a loan to pay that off because I don’t have enough money saved. I’m honestly just waiting for them to release the summer financial aid.</p>

<p>I’m in the same boat, but the admissions office definitely told me it would be after May 1st so if you want to go to UF you might end up having to go in the spring. I agree with you, I really want to go in the Fall but with such limited spaces it’s scary, I’m hoping we get in though.</p>

<p>Also, if you do get switched into the Fall term have you thought about your housing options?</p>

<p>My D was in a similar postion last year, accepted Spring and wanted Summer or Fall. They did say they wouldn’t be doing anything until after the May 1 notification date, but decisions were made before that. My D’s term status changed online on April 29th. They know people sometimes have to notify other schools they are coming if the term change doesn’t work out.</p>

<p>I encourage you to just keep checking your status page to see if the term is changed. They will not let you know right away other than the fact that they change it in the system. I don’t even remember if they actually sent anything out on the change.</p>

<p>Thanks, that’s really helpful. So you’re daughter was able to gert switched into the fall?</p>

<p>They switched her to Summer, which was her first choice. It worked out really well. They get accustomed to things before Fall comes with so many more people.</p>

<p>In my case I prefer Fall because if I go to Summer B, I will have to take a loan or work-study EVEN THOUGH I have an EFC of 0! However they pay me everything in Fall.</p>

<p>tzais01- did she know anyone who didn’t get their term change? and what did she do about the housing situation?</p>

<p>Ir2010-Did you request a term change? My friend wanted fall and got accepted for Summer and since they make the summer students go into the AIM program UF pays for everything, at leasdt during the summer.</p>

<p>^Yep! I requested it! I thought I was part of the AIM Program, but I called and they told me no! so they only give me little bit of Fin Aid.</p>

<p>Have you gotten your finacial aid for the Summer/Fall/Spring term?</p>

<p>Everyone that my daughter knew requesting the change had theirs granted. </p>

<p>As far as housing, she had the very first date of housing priority which was a bummer. They said Summer housing would be available, but couldn’t guarantee Fall, so we just went ahead and leased an apartment at Jefferson Second Ave. It’s a tradeoff, apartments are sooooo much nicer than dorm living, but you miss the social experience of the dorms. She doesn’t regret living off campus and is staying at Jefferson next year too.</p>

<p>@ CGymrek Yes, I got my Aid Package for Fall/Spring, they pay me everyhting but Summer is the problem, that’s why I want to change it for Fall.</p>

<p>@tzais01 You mean that everyone that requested a change for Fall of this year has been granted? they told me that their decision is on May 1, when students accept or reject their admission.</p>

<p>LR2010, I was responding to the question to me from Cgymrek.</p>

<p>Thanks tzais, I really hope to get my term change for economic reasons and such but I am nervous about the dorms because I really wanted to live on campus. However, a few friends of mine wanted to room off campus and we were looking at Jefferson.
I read some bad reviews about it, which made me nervous but you say you’re daughter likes it? And how is your daughter doing at UF, like are the classes difficult?</p>

<p>CGymrek, I’ll PM you.</p>
