How much more money will I need for a full ride?

<p>I kind of got a little aggravated with doing standardized testing more than twice, so I only have the 75% scholarship.</p>

<p>However, I did receive the gold Pegasus scholarship at 10,000$</p>

<p>So from this, could anyone tell me how much more money per year roughly would I have to spend to attend UCF?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance :)</p>

<p>Well, if I recall from the numbers they give on the website, it’s about $4,000 a year for FL residents ($2,000 a semester), and around $20,000 a year for out of state ($10,000 per semester). Since you’re an in-state student and let’s assume that Bright Futures pays exactly the amount it should, they will send you $1,500 a semester. So you would be missing $500 per semester but your $10,000 scholarsip will be divided into $1,250 per semester so that should cover the gap completely, plus the rest you can spend on books. Basically you’re set with a nice full ride to UCF, assuming you’re in-state and live close to UCF. If you live a further away like me then you also will need some more money for dorms. Good luck! :)</p>

<p>Mosksha - What were your tests scores? How did you get the Gold Pegasus and not Bright Futurse.</p>

<p>I thought that the Pegasus was the $10,000 for all 4 years? And 2,500 a semester.</p>

<p>No, $2500 a year. $1250 a semester. Which equals $10,000.</p>

<p>My stats were:
3.7 Unweighted GPA
620 Math
590 Reading
570 Writing</p>

<p>Not the best I guess.</p>

<p>That is odd though that you received Pegasus Gold… Maybe they look for a 590 Reading, because I got a 580 Reading, 670 Math, and a 610 Writing with a 3.9 UW GPA and I only got Silver.</p>

<p>Sorry, I meant 2,500 a year, not semester.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure 10 points would not have made that big a difference.
Maybe it was just by chance.</p>

<p>I will be taking both tests again - I will try to get Gold with better scores.</p>

<p>Moksha - I came across any old thread of yours:
<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/551190-help-me-make-my-list-shorter.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/551190-help-me-make-my-list-shorter.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>and you put these as your stats “SAT: 720 Math 680 Writing 690 Reading”</p>

<p>which one is right?</p>

<p>“620 Math
590 Reading
570 Writing”</p>

<p>you’re right knightforum. I’m confused as well Moksha, which are your actual stats? If you only have 75% BF then there’s no way this one can be right: “SAT: 720 Math 680 Writing 690 Reading” =/ </p>

<p>And knightforum, now I’m lost since i’m not sure what moksha’s actual stats are, but if someone with lower scores than you got a higher UCF scholarship it might have had to do with when you each applied. Your score certainly is good but if you didnt apply early enough there might not have been enough funds left to give you a Gold. It’s a pretty unlikely that better test scores will result in them upgrading your scholarship at this point since funds are probably low or out, but hey its worth a shot anyways.</p>

<p>It’s the stats I posted in this forum.
I was a little embarrassed of my stats :x
These forums make me seem very incompetent is all lol</p>

<p>marlins97 - I don’t understand their process because I was accepted to UCF back in October…</p>

<p>Did you really get Gold Moksha??</p>

That should be enough proof lol.
I put my user name in the address bar for identification purposes.
I did, however, cover up the numbers on the screen, just in case for security reasons.</p>

<p>Oh, not saying that I didn’t believe you… I was just making sure. I want to try to get Gold.</p>

<p>Did you take the ACT?? If so what was your highest score?</p>

<p>Haha, the ACT. I never submitted the scores since I only got a 23.
I took too long on the questions, so I Christmas treed most of the test.</p>

<p>Oh lol well your stats fall quite a bit short for the colleges you listed in the other thread, but by no means are you imcompetent. Your got into UCF, AND have several scholarship offers. By my book that makes you pretty smart and successful so far.</p>
