<p>Ok. Need encouragement here. I know that being deferred is way better than being rejected, but I wonder what the chances of being accpted after being deferred for semester grades are. My daughter is taking all AP and Honors and is getting all A and B’s. If she continues to do well, will she prob. be accepted?</p>
<p>also, what are her chances at USF for summer with 3.3 GPA, ACT 24, SAT 1080, (R and M) and 1730 all combined?</p>
<p>WRITE, IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! Your persistance and optimism really paid off well! UCF is an amazing school with amazing people, and I hope you make the best of this experience!</p>
<p>CNMPSYD, I’ll say it before and I’ll say it again, S T F U!!! Stop raining on people’s parade. It’s like you can’t even congratulate someone without being sincere, WHATS WRONG WITH YOU BOY!</p>
<p>Mizz-Thank you so much! I’m dancing around the school, yelling the news to all my friends, and I’m being attacked by too many hugs! Everyone knows how much I wanted this. I can’t tell you how amazing it feels to be an underdog from the beginning, and somehow slip in! I must admit, I do feel very guilty. People like AS, and overcomer’s daughter should have been immediately accepted, not defered. Then there’s me, a 22 ACT, 3.2-3.3 GPA, with only extras to make me stand out, and I get in? It makes me feel like the whole thing is highly unfair for everyone else- So I’m going to do anything I can to get these students in-they deserve it! As well as my brother, who I forced to reapply for summer, under ‘undecided’ rather then engineering. </p>
<p>Also, I agree. How did he turn out to be such a horrible person? Parenting, spoiled? So many options…</p>
<p>But, thank you again, especially cheering me along the way. It feels so, so good:)</p>
<p>Omg, so this is really stressing me out. I need to know if I was deferred accepted or rejected. applied in July, and They finally fixed my whole issue with ucf believing i am a transfer student. I have been having nightmares that I didn’t get in. I wake up throwing up, and I can’t go back to sleep. This is eating me alive. I broke down twice today at school, and I can’t stop shaking. You would think I was denied the way I am acting. Can anybody relate to how I’m feeling. I need any sort of support. I really believe I should have gotten in for summer by now. I have a 4.5 weighted gpa. 21 act and not so good sat scores. but 760 hours of community service. Varsity Cheer Captain. bunch of honor societies. clubs. ugh this is killing me. and completely taking over my body. I really don’t know how much longer I can deal with this for. Ugh this is so frustrating!!</p>
<p>I am in the same situation as your daughter. I have a weighted 3.5 all honors/AP core classes, SAT 1070/ACT 21. I applied in late September and I haven’t heard anything. It is so frustrating. I have a ton of EC’s and about 100 hours of community service. </p>
<p>Have you visited USF? I really like UNF a lot better. The campus is new, the programs are award winning, and the location to the beach and shopping is like 10 minutes. 
If you haven’t checked it out yet, you should because it is a log nicer than USF.</p>
<p>Write, I feel ya! I’ve been in that position myself. Low scores, and GPA that were only average, nothing spectacular. Now you can finally enjoy your senior year! This is only the beginning, attending UCF is truly a blast if you make the most of it! Feel free to ask me any questions! I don’t know everything regarding the school, but I’m currently in my second year, so I can help you out with anything you need!</p>
<p>Kait12309, I think you should give a shot at emailing them. Go back a few pages and you’ll see an email of a particular admission representative… she seems like the person to email because everyone has been getting their statuses updated after emailing. Calm down, and I wish you the best of luck!</p>
<p>Edit; Questionsrus- Are you sure you like UNF that much? It’s a great school, but the location isn’t the best, to be honest. LOL. I used to live 45 minutes away from UNF and also got accepted there but decided to go to UCF instead. Jacksonville is a very boring city…</p>
<p>Questions , Did you apply Fall or Summer? I have a 21 act, applied July and have yet to hear.</p>
<p>Thanks Mizz, I have her email, and I have been debating if I should tell her my life story. I just am kind of shy but I guess it can’t hurt. Also does anyone know how they file in Letters of Recommendation? My manager told me he sent one in the mail to UCF but I was wondering if they just add it to your file or what not.
Also Mizz, Where are you currently living? on or off campus? Since I am applying for summer, I was thinking about staying in the cheapest dorms for summer, but I was wondering if they are really crappy, and I am planning on getting an apartment with 4 people bc its like $2-300 cheaper</p>
<p>kait12309 - fall</p>
<p>Mizz - I guess when you live somewhere you always think that it is boring. I live about 3 hours south of Jacksonville. When we visited UNF this summer I really enjoyed the tour, the ability to travel oversees with UNF picking up the tab for everything but the flight, and of course the location to the beautiful beaches of Jacksonville. All I know is that it is a lot better location than USF is in. When we visited the campus there were panhandlers up and down the streets around the college.</p>
<p>Kait, compose an email that would tell her how much you want this opportunity, just don’t overdo it and write pages. It couldn’t hurt to give it a shot… And yes, I think they just put the letters of recommendations in your file… I’m honestly not sure how it affects everything, but I still remember sending them like 3 letters.</p>
<p>I’m currently living off-campus. I lived in the dorms my first year, and thought it was ok. I’m kind of claustrophobic, so sharing a small room with another person wasn’t the best experience for me. And honestly, the dorms are so overpriced! I’m paying $485 for my rent now, and I’m looking for someone to take over my lease for the summer term, if you’re interested. I’ve been taking classes the last two summers, so I wanted a break. It’s probably the cheapest place around here, also. Ask me anything about the place and I’ll tell you everything you need to hear.</p>
<p>Edit; Questionsrus, hm, maybe it is because I lived there for 7-8 years! I have friends that attend UNF and they love it, so I guess it all depends! I was just so ready to be out of there, haha.</p>
<p>As soon as I get in I would be so interested in taking over your lease for summer.
I too am claustrophobic! Where are you living now? is it close to campus. It would be $2800 to live in the cheapest dorms for just summer. ugh!</p>
<p>I’m living at Campus Crossing @ Alafaya. It’s super close. There’s a shuttle bus that runs about every 15 minutes to UCF and back, so you don’t need to worry about transportation. I’ll lay it all out for you before you decide to take over the lease, haha. And don’t worry too much… just try to send her an email and see what happens!</p>
<p>Thanks Mizz, just sent the email, I think it was good. I basically talked about how important ucf has always been to me and its the only university for me hah nothing too much about my life story like just that i have had some circumstances that made me who i am today.how i am well rounded. and that i was extremely worried that i will never become a ucf knight. :(</p>
<p>and i did some research on elizabeth costello</p>

<p>Hey Write, just wanted to say congrats I know you really wanted this and I tried to help u by giving advice cuz I somehow got in lol</p>
<p>What’s your name? I’ll add u on Facebook.</p>
<p>Persistence does pay off. UCF just got my deposit and now I am signing up for student orientation!</p>
<p>I was just deferred until they get other test scores. my best ACT was a 22, and I have a 4.5 weighted high school GPA and a 4.0 UCF recalculated gpa. guess I have to retake the act and sat… I am not happy at all. And I applied summer. NOT FALL. Probably the worst day of my life right now. cause now thats at least $100 I have to pay out of my pocket. when They should have accepted me.</p>
<p>Sorry Kait, but at least you are still in the game!! cheer up! :)</p>
<p>i honestly don’t even know what it means to be deferred. I seriously feel like a failure, and everything I have done in high school doesn’t matter :(</p>
<p>and i had a 22 act 
4.5 weighted hs gpa. geese idk what they want! :(</p>
