<p>Thanks Gator.
Those are the stats for enrolled freshmen, not for admitted freshmen - so 70% of the admitted applicant pool does not appear in these stats. It may not matter or it may explain why it seemed basically all kids who lived near UNF got in - they may not choose to attend so their stats aren’t computed.</p>
<p>I would think the difference between enrolled and admitted is about the same for both schools.</p>
<p>About 1/2 of the applicants applying to UNF are not being accepted. Be careful with the fallacy of “everyone I know”…you’re likely to know a sub-set of students who have decent grades and attend one of the better high schools.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<p>“I don’t know how the elections where so close, everyone I knew voted for Obama”</p>
<p>“I don’t know how Obama won, everyone I knew voted for Romney”</p>
<p>If I had a dollar for every time I heard one of the two above statements… :)</p>
<p>Gator88:you’re right, but I’m talking about a fairly large sample due to my occupation 
Then again, (obviously) I don’t live in Florida. I was talking about 2.5-3.4 range students, roughly, with 1300-1500 scores, for UNF. (yes, students in the 1.5-2.4 tended to not get in, at both places actually.) Also the totally subjective impression among the group that UNF wasn’t “as good”/cool as UWF mostly because the overwhelming vibe was Pensacola> Jacksonville. So, all subjective indeed. In addition, students who apply to UNF may also be self-selected (have a specific reason to apply there vs. another florida public, This may explain the slight difference in selectivity, too, vs. actual stats. Kinda like Grinnell, which is moderately selective (high% of admitted students) but they all have killer stats (not comparable to UNF UWF etc)
Anyway, for patriotsfan, UWF is a match and UNF more or less also, but a high match. Take heart, patriotsfan, FAU and FIU are possible, and Gulf Coast is probably a safety to match for you. You may want to look into Flagler for a nice reach.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot guys for your inputs its been really helpful. And yea I know my grades aren’t the best but like I said earlier it was a 3.1 at the beginning of the year and my school pretty much screwed my entire record up. Once again though thanks alot for your input guys</p>
<p>lol I have one last question guys I just got my gpa adjusted and the report says that I have a uw 2.54 and w 3.38 did that help my chances or not.</p>
<p>Yeppers, it helps. FSU, FGCU, FAU, New College, and UWF will all use the GPA off your transcripts (they no longer re-calculate GPA).</p>
<p>so those universities you listed base their admissions off the weighted GPA</p>
<p>hey quick question first off I know im bringing back an old post, sorry about that. But if anybody can tell me about my chances of getting admitted into odu,radford,vcu that would be great. Thank you</p>
<p>Correct GPA is mentioned on the second page</p>
<p>You may want to start a new thread, with ODU, Radford and VCU in the title…</p>
<p>good idea thanks man</p>
