<p>I am currently situated on the island in Trinidad and Tobago. In the caribbean we do things a little bit different in terms of our education system.</p>
<p>In high school i did 7 CSEC Subjects and received 4 (1s), 2 (2s) and 1 (3)
I also did CAPE/A levels Unit 1 and got 2 (2s) 1 (3) and 1 (4).
A 1-5 counts as a pass.</p>
<p>I am about to do SAT Exam and would be getting 650+ on each section as long as things go according to plan which it has so far.</p>
<p>What are my chances of getting???</p>
<p>No clue, you should contact the Universities on your list, they should be able to give you more insight.</p>
<p>FIU has the largest by percentage (14%) of international students. </p>

<p>You may also want to look into the LAC Scholarship:</p>
<p>[UFIC</a> - International Student Services](<a href=“University of Florida International Center”>University of Florida International Center)</p>
<p>“Under Florida statute 1009.21, full-time students from Latin America and the Caribbean (including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands) who receive scholarships from the federal or state government qualify for in-state tuition. This provision of the law provides an opportunity to encourage the continued internationalization of UF and to attract more high-quality students from Latin America and the Caribbean.”</p>
<p>I believe this is not limited to UF, but would also work at FIU, USF and FGCU.</p>
<p>Here’s another link (FGCU) to look at:</p>
<p>[FGCU</a> Undergraduate Admissions - Prospective Students](<a href=“http://www.fgcu.edu/Admissions/Prospective/latinscholarship.html]FGCU”>http://www.fgcu.edu/Admissions/Prospective/latinscholarship.html)</p>
<p>The scholarship is only $250 a semester, but it makes you qualify for in-state tuition, based on FS 1009.21. In-state tuition is about $6,500 a year, while out of state is $18,000 (FIU) to 28,000 (UF). I know UF also has a $250 scholarship (who’s goal is to make the student qualify as in-state). I would think USF/FIU also have something similar.</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
<p>Thanks for all the help, wow so glad i qualify for in state tuition. It is so much cheaper and reasonable. Can you give me any advice on admissions to FL schools and doing SAT?</p>
<p>University of Tampa and Eckerd college are also in Florida and have a lot of international students</p>
<p>Admissions for International students is complicated. :)</p>
<p>However, you should first check out UF’s website. Much of the info On UF’s site is applicable to the other Florida Universities:</p>
