<p>Reality is, no one knows why it takes a month. Trust me. What ilovethe47 said is speculation/assumption. All we know is admissions made their acceptance/rejection decisions and that it will be released in a month. Who knows what they will be doing in the mean time; it could be scholarship disbursement or even prepping letters/emails of the decisions. It could even be placing students in the terms; uf admits as one enrolling class, so once they admit everyone, then they start placing students in fall, then in summer, IA, summer deferments, etc. etc. It might even be double checking or something. No one knows, and anyone who tries to give you a reason, claiming it to be factual, well…they aren’t credible.</p>
