Is there any hope?

Is there any chance that a student deferred to Summer will get a scholarship?

My daughter applied to Fall and was accepted for Summer.

UCF is her top choice/dream school, but we can only afford it if she gets a scholarship.

We are OOS. She has a 1210 SAT, 93.3 W GPA, 92.9 UW. Just got 2 A’s in DE classes. Minimal extracurriculars, majoring in CJ.

Our efc for 19/20 (Summer) is 8,800 and for 20/21 its 20,677. But we can swing maybe half that and she will be taking on the max in federal student loans.

Is there any chance or are we likely out of luck?

Yes. Our daughter is also accepted for the summer, we just took the tour this Monday and asked that very question.

Also, just in case you don’t know what summer acceptance really means at UCF, here’s the deal.

It means she can enroll for the Summer B term, and only has to take ONE ONLINE course. Summer admission is basically just a little baby-step to the Fall.

She will have to attend a two-day orientation prior to the Summer term, and then she’ll register for the Fall term online later.
