<p>I applied like October 15th, and still haven't heard, so i'm getting sort of worried...</p>
<p>What chance have I got?</p>
<p>xerxes - Looking very solid. BTW, you would only be hearing now if you applied ED. RD 1 applicants will get notified next year.</p>
<p>I see....now that makes more sense. thanks.</p>
<p>Hey there.. I'm applying RD to UF.. I'm out of state (NJ).. my SAT is 1310, ACT is 25 (gah.. yay for low scores!) By the end of this year I'll have taken 4 AP's (Psychology, Environmental, US History and Calc..)</p>
<p>Umm.. I don't have thatttt many EC's.. I've done Girl Scouts since 1st grade, Key Club all through HS, adopted a trail with my local parks commission throughout high school, involved with Operation Smile, a program called PUSH at my school which educates 4th graders on drugs/alcohol.. umm.. yea.. not much else.. lol..</p>
<p>I have all of the application done except for one of the essays.. I'm totally not motivated to write yet another essay, and am already suffering from senioritis.. lol</p>
<p>the essays arent that bad really. You should get in with that SAT as long as your GPA is above 3.6ish. UF really looks at GPA more than anything else. There are people that get rejected from UF with 13+ but you need a really low GPA.</p>
<p>If you need help on the essays let me know, I might be able to help.</p>
<p>Keep in mind I got in with a 23 ACT, so your scores arent bad. My GPA however is 4.333+</p>
<p>Note: I was also 4/359 which was top 5% of class in a Florida public high school which are guarenteed admission.</p>
<p>cookie monster, did you get in?</p>
<p>Actually, people besides EDers received notification on the 10th. National Merit Semifinalists, or those who attended an event over the summer related to National Merit, received decisions (read: acceptances) on the 10th.</p>
<p>that was like non-binding early decision tho, my friend had something similar</p>
<p>They called it "Early Notification" - it is a non-binding decision and did not prevent us from applying to other schools that were Single Choice Early Action. Pretty nice.</p>

An admissions guy at the summer event (which was, IMHO, somewhat humorously called "Outstanding High School Scholars Program"), without even knowing the ECs, GPAs, SATs, etc. of the 230 kids who attended, told me that at least 99% of us would admitted.</p>
