How many people do they take from out of state usually?
According to the admissions annual report, last year 9,442 OOS kids applied. 4,250 were accepted. 935 enrolled. So, the OOS admission rate is actually higher than in the instate rate. OOS is 45% vs. 36% for in state. The big difference is the yield. Only 22% of OOS admits enrolled. 59% of in state admits enrolled.
While 45% of OOS kids are admitted, only 14% of the freshman class ended up being from out of state.
Based on last year’s stats, it is a myth that it is harder for OOS kids to get in to UF. But its more expensive, so the yield is much lower.
