<p>i think its kinda sad that some of the people rejected aren't even happy to have gotten in are unsure if they even wanna go because you're just taking a spot of someone who really wanted to go and who;s heart was set on this school.</p>

<p>still no decision for me either, my application was also complete way back in september</p>
<p>caede51, People who are accepted can be happy or neutral if they want to be and fully have the right to decide not to go because that is there prerogative. UF will expect 1/3 of their offers of admissions to be declined. BY NO MEANS does that mean that those people who decline take away the opportunity for someone else. If that was true, then UF's freshmen class would be 10,000 students instead of 6,600.</p>
<p>matthewlnk22: Aha! its nice to see someone with a higher SAT then mine (1600 Scale) </p>
<p>Im in the same position as you, UF certainly isnt my first choice but it feels good to know i can go somewhere next year if i get rejected at the other schools i applied to.</p>
<p>The economy is not well. There will be many attending UF that, though accepted at top 10 schools, will not be able to afford going there.</p>
<p>uf doesnt defer since its only regular admission</p>
<p>I......just.....don't......understand! Ugh, I feel like I SHOULD appeal, but I'm not sure if I actually WANT to.</p>
<p>there was a huge demand at UF than any other year. 28,000 applicants. How many did The university of illinois said they had this year?
Go where its affordable, where you know that they have the best program for your major, and where you like the most.(i.e. cold or hot?)
I'm appealing for sure.</p>
<p>This is probably why you go rejected, dvm258. You seem to have no common sense. </p>
<p>Your reasoning is like me saying "Since I got into Princeton, I MUST get into Brown". It's simply illogical. They are different schools looking for different students. You got rejected; it is not the end of the world. You were not what UF was looking for.</p>
<p>I'm just illustrating a point. I even know that rankings almost mean nothing, but because of where I got in earlier I thought that I may be deferred.</p>
<p>I do believe too that my transcript from FAU wasn't evaluated during admission for some reason and that could have made a difference. It appeared on the status page as UNEVALUATEDecd before the decision came up. If it was looked at, I'll probably just let it be. If not.....then it's war! LOL.</p>
<p>File an appeal if you feel as though you're truly deserving.</p>
<p>I'm sure you've said you would about 100 times in this thread already. We understand you're upset, and perhaps rightfully so, but it gets a bit irritating after a while.</p>
<p>I'm sorry you were rejected, but I don't need to know how angry you are every 10 or so posts.</p>
<p>cut some slack to dvm, rosh420.
its a devastating feeling that many are experiencing. If you don't want to be irritated by her "10 or so posts" then don't come to this thread.
try to be supportive, not insensitive to others.</p>
<p>This is a thread for you to post whether or not you were rejetcted or accepted. It wasn't established for you to bicker and complain. </p>
<p>This has nothing to do with apathy. Dvm appears to be arrogant and truly degrading. If I am not mistaken, he said something along the lines of "how can people with lower ACT/SAT scores than mine get in". Perhaps he didn't, but I am almost positive he did. It's hard to be sympathetic with someone who isn't deserving.</p>
<p>hey man,
im not complaining here. but last time i checked, this was a community forum where you can express anything you like. I agree with you guys that,indeed, it can get a little annoying, but what can you do? just be happy for wherever you guys are going and don't interfere with others. Rankings SHOULDNT be part of your college choices. UF wants an overall student, not just the highest scores, or the best in this or the best in that.
Go for the appeal dvm, you won't loose anything.
Until then, let it be. Lets not stir some unwanted commotion over here now.</p>
<p>Geez. Sorry if I sounded like that. Actually, I'm kinda laughing more than I am upset. I'm just pointing out something interesting. I know I sounded upset and I didn't really mean to come off that way, ok?</p>
<p>So far, kahl's posts of consisted of:</p>
<p>dvm you definetly sound like one of those American Heritage potheads that is really a nebish and will fail out anywhere he goes to college. good luck though noob.</p>
<p>after seeing all the trashy posts, I am not sure I want to go to such a dump for college, I might have to upgrade to FAMU and a doublewide instead.</p>
<p>Hey dvm this is blake p***** and you know who i am. I go to heritage and i just wanted to let everyone here know that you are a noob.</p>
<p>i mean all they have to do is notice how many posts you have made on this forum in the past day to see how insecure you are about yourself. Just stating the obvious</p>
<p>29 posts in a day, that must set some sort of record for this UF forum</p>
<p>Plus the ones above me on this page. That is EVERYTHING he has posted so far. He can't go one post without trashing somebody. Who's insecure?</p>
