Basically, I sent my high school transcript to UF about a week after I submitted my entire application but was just told by a counselor “if you send in your transcripts right now to FSU or UF they won’t even look at your application and they’ll throw it out because you didn’t follow the directions and sent them too soon.” Someone please tell me this isn’t true. I was just trying to make sure they had all the information they needed and got every AP/ACT/transcript/score (High school and Dual enrolled) on time. I realize I should not have send my transcript but my application is still really strong regardless and I’m hoping this doesn’t mean the end of my UF dream.
Don’t worry about it. No one is throwing out your application. The transcripts will simply be ignored during admissions.
Make sure you’ve completed the SSAR! UF will be using this instead of the transcripts. You’ll need a copy of your transcripts when you complete it.
Good Luck!
