<p>Hi everyone,
I finally moved to Florida from Texas and just got my last grade for my Associates degree.</p>

<p>I want to apply for the Fall Semester 2015 sometime soon and your opinion would probably help me a lot, so please respond even if you are not sure ;-)
I also have some questions later, but first about me and my grades:</p>

<p>Me: Foreign Student from Germany for the last 2 years at a smaller Community College (About 10 000 students /w vocational, etc.) in Texas, but now in procedings towards getting my greencard, so coming next year I would be attending with a resident card.
Major: Computer Science (At CC)
Intended Major: Computer Engineering - CEN
Current highest degree: Associate of Arts Degree - General Studies
College Credits: 78
Overall GPA: 3.95
Preprof. GPA: 3.85
Honors/Awards (If applicable): General Studies Scholarship for 2013-2014, Pre-Engineering Scholarship for 2013-2014, Outstanding Freshman Mathematics 2013, Outstanding Computer Science Student 2014 and of course some Presidentslist entries.</p>

<p>The only class I unfortunately made a B in was Physics with Calculus II and I haven't taken Chemistry II yet (I wanted to do that at UF).</p>

<p>I also have some extra classes, which weren't required for UF admission, such as:
Fundamentals of Programing I (Java) - A
Fundamentals of Programing II: Data Structures (C++) - A
Linear Algebra - A</p>

<p>My main concern is that I am a foreign student and from a community college out of stats. Will this lower my chances of acceptance?</p>

<p>Also, how and when do I proof UF that I am proficient in a second language (For me of course German), since in Germany it is not normal to go course by course and semester. Should I just send them two of my German annual grade reports? Would it be easier to just take a subject test? Or is there a possibilty that they could just test me at UF and I just have to do an oral test with one of their professors that they accept it?</p>

<p>Thank you all in advance! :)</p>

<p>Your situation is complicated, so call Admissions and get a definitive answer to your questions:- 352-392-1365 </p>

<p>The FAQ for International Students may be of use:</p>

<p>Since you’re a transfer student, they may not use (for admissions) the GPA of your secondary school (High School). However, they still may want your secondary school transcripts.</p>

<p>UF may have a slight biased to transfer students from Florida CC’s, however, but with your stats, I wouldn’t worry about it.</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>
