<p>Accepted to Texas A&M university(2,000), SMU, TCU, BAYLOR (34,00) University of Iowa (60,000) Penn state University. Waiting on University of Texas at Austin (probably denial) want U of Florida so freaking and ughhhhhh.</p>
<p>Your GPA is great, but your ACT is a bit low. However, with UF’s Holistic admissions, being a first generation URM, with good EC’s, should make up for it (even being out of state). So, UF is a Match.</p>
<p>Basically, don’t worry about it, if your stats/EC’s can get you in, state residency is not likely to stop you and it may even help if UF isn’t reaching whatever target they have set, that year, for OOS students. The real challenge for OOS students is competing against the best students in Florida for spots. UF is fairly popular with in-state students, due to it’s ranking, large number of majors and very low tuition. </p>
<p>Note that Geographical residency likely has to do with giving special consideration to students from a particular part of the state and doesn’t impact OOS students.</p>
