I was deferred by UCF for the summer 2017 term yesterday. UCF is my top choice and I’m really disappointed I didn’t get in. Can anyone share some advice on what should I do? Was anyone else deferred? Anyone previously get deferred and were accepted later?

My Stats
GPA- 3.1 unweighted.
3.8 weighted.

ACT- Didn’t use.

SAT- I’ve only ever taken the new SAT, I sent them my 1160 score originally, and they just got my 1270 out of 1600 score yesterday the same day I that I got deferred.

I’m in the AP Program at my school. After my senior year I would have taken 11 APs, I’ve only taken AP or Honors classes. I’m in various clubs and honor societies. I had about 6-7 rec letters written for me but I never sent them because I heard they weren’t used in the admission decision. What should I do to increase my chances of getting accepted? I feel so embarrassed, because all my friends are getting into every college they applied to.

Thank you to anyone who can help.

That’s crazy. The good news is deferred does not mean denied! Maybe try to call them and ask what you can do. I got into fall with a 3.3 UW and 4.2 W GPA but lots of community service and extra curricular. Let me know how it goes!
