I recently got deferred from Tulane which made me a bit paranoid about the my UF chances. Please be honest with my chances so I can best expect what the result might be.

Also, I’m curious about the potential for scholarship money from UF but don’t know what their standards are.

Your chances for UF are VERY good. I’m an FL SR and your profile is superior to many in state friends of mine who have gotten in. If you like FL another great option where I believe you will get much more scholarship is USF and you make the automatic admission cutoff for the Honors College.

If your essay is good I think you have a great shot.
