ACT: Didn’t submit (really bad)
GPA: 3.7 unweighted
Rank: Top 15%
Other stats: N/A</p>
<p>Major: International Studies
Essays: I was told they were really great by two teachers (both UF alum) as well as a current journalism student there
Hook (if any): Well in my essay I discussed how I’ve been diabetic but haven’t let that take over my life and always persevere and such, if that’s what this section is looking for.</p>
<p>Location/Person: South Florida. REALLY need to get out of here. Badly. I need some green in my life.
State or Country: Florida.
School Type: Public
Ethnicity: White
Gender: Female</p>
<p>Other Factors: N/A

<p>SAT: 1920
ACT: 30
GPA: 3.7 uw/4.1
Rank: i’m not sure anymore… top 15%?</p>
<p>Major: PoliSci/Econ (does anyone know if these majors are actually better at UF than say…FSU?)</p>
<p>Essays: they are alrrriight. i regret not spending more time on them. basically just discussed the strive for constant self-improvement.</p>
<p>aps: lots of honors, only 6 ap’s though. govt/econ/lang/lit/bio/physics. 1 dual, sort of? i didn’t pay for the dual fee so i’m now i’m just taking it for the honors credit…</p>
<p>State or Country: ARIZONA. Probably not a good thing that I’m not in-state.</p>
<p>School Type: public
Ethnicity: white

<p>Other Factors: mock trial MACHINE. i actually am super super passionate about law, which shows through my extracurriculars (i competed at nationals for mock trial, am president, in MUN, etc) hopefully this is a good thing.</p>
<p>General Comments: I got a C in AP Bio last semester but I mean, they don’t know and I don’t think they’ll rescind me once they find out, soooo… (it also didn’t drop my GPA at all). Pshft, bio. </p>
<p>I don’t think I’ll be too upset if I don’t get in, which is what I’m sort of expecting. FSU (my other choice) has comparable programs in what I want to major in. My entire family is all about gator-mania though, so it’d be nice to see an acceptance tomorrow.</p>
<p>Even though UF is kind of my back-up choice, I really do like the school and I’ll be happy to get an acceptance (haven’t gotten in anywhere yet)! Good luck to everyone!</p>

<p>Wow. I was rejected to UF. I am at a loss as I thought it would just be a formality. </p>

ACT: 33 (1st try)
UW GPA: 3.4

I was a couple point off from being a National Merit Semifinalist and was in the 99% and was recognized as a National Hispanic Scholar. In addition to that, I was given the Presidential Scholarship at Auburn and Stetson, the Pegasus Gold Scholarship at UCF and a scholarship worth about $55,000 from UT Dallas. </p>
<p>Major: Mechanical Engineering
Essays: I think they were pretty damn good as my teachers looked them over and praised them.

<p>I guess I’m stuck going to UCF, which I was probably going to anyways unless UF offered me a scholarship. I’ve always been a Gator fan though and it really hurts not to have gotten in. I still don’t understand why I didn’t. Can anyone provide any thoughts on why I was rejected?</p>
