For those who have completed applications, how long did it take from the day your school electronically submitted your transcript to the day UCF reflected that they had received it? It says can take 3-7 days.
@Boomer14 S’s school sent his transcript in two days ago (Tuesday, 9/13). MyUCF says it hasn’t received a transcript. We’re hoping UCF will have it sometime next week. Once in, the school will have everything they need to review the application.
Thanks @VABogart same boat here. School sent on 9/12. MyUCF still says waiting for transcript. Test scores and application are in the portal. We are hoping for next week too.
Update: transcript sent 9/12 is showing in MyUCF 
Next question - does UCF require AP scores for admissions decisions? I thought not, but now MyUCF says “waiting for official …” next to Advanced Placement Classes.
I don’t see any status such as “ready for review” or anything like that…
@Boomer14 That’s great news. We’re still waiting. We’ll give UCF until Thursday to receive the transcript. I’m not sure about the “waiting for official . . .” S has the same thing, only it’s next to IB Credit.
@VABogart another update in MyUCF-
If required documents (transcripts, test scores, etc.) have been submitted, your application is currently being reviewed by our admission committee.,…
**NOTE: AP, IB, AICE, and CLEP scores are required prior to enrollment but will not delay your admission decision.
So this answers my previous question. AP/IB scores are not required till enrollment. Admission decision not dependent on those. So now we wait for next status change.
It will say waiting for official transcript forever…possibly into summer when highschool sends FINAL OFFICIAL year end transcript. Don’t worry about it because it doesn’t affect admission decision.
Good luck from a mom with 2 children currently at UCF…CHARGE ON!!!
thanks @ufmomfriend One more quick update. Checked this morning and S is accepted! To recap the timeline:
8/?? - requested test scores to be sent from ACT / SAT
9/12 - transcripts sent electronically from high school
9/13 - hit submit on application and paid app fee
9/14-15 Once in MyUCF tests were already listed as received.
9/20 - high school transcript acknowledged as received in MyUCF
9/21 - status changed to “currently being reviewed”
9/22 - ACCEPTED
Moved pretty quickly. GO Knights Charge ON!
Congrats!!! My kids are very happy at ucf. Hope your s will love it too!! Go knights!!!
Do you guys think it’s an issue if my test scores are not showing up in my.ucf? I sent them during my junior year. I did call and ask them and they said they had my score and that I should not be concerned, but I can’t help but wonder if something is wrong.
Which test scores…act/sat or ap/ib??
They have my ACT and my old SAT (I confirmed), but I guess it’s just not showing up for me.
Are you looking at your application status or your transfer credit report?
If you guys are wondering what happened to my situation, it was resolved after I emailed UCF. I think someone had to manually match my scores to my my.ucf page.
Don’t worry. It took about 6 weeks for UCF to get my transcripts and about a week and a half later I got a decision. I think it was my school’s fault but it still might make you feel better to know you’re not the only one this happened to.
