<p>i applied to Summer B, but i'm not entirely sure i want to go to UF. my first and second choice schools won't be sending me their decision until April 1st. i got something in the mail that said something about sending in money by the end of february. AHHH!</p>
<p>do i HAVE to send it in? or does it just have to be in by some time in may?</p>
<p>you lose your priority date if it's not in by the due date.</p>
<p>If you want to live on campus, you must send in your housing deposit now. If you decide to not attend UF, you can work on trying to get some of the $200 back later.</p>
<p>you wont get the cash back.</p>
