<p>You should decide for yourself if you have a chance at UF. Here is last year's freshman profile (see for yourself how you fit in).

<p>Your SAT is fine, but I would really work on getting that GPA up if possible. Having both an average SAT score and GPA might hurt you...but I know Florida will compensate one for the other. For example, you can get away with a high GPA and lower SAT, and visa versa. Make sure your recommendations and essays are up to par. Good Luck! -From a fellow OOS</p>

<p>Might be a bit out of reach for you. UF is a public university, so I'm thinking that it might be harder for you since you are out of state. Try to bring your SAT scores up a bit, as well as your GPA. You should apply, but it could go either way.</p>
