I’m applying as a oos aplicant and I know they say that it is much harder to get in out of state. Does any one really know how many out of state applicants actually apply??
Btw if you’re a out of state applicant make sure to reply! (With your stats maybe) Gooodluck to everyone! Only 25 more days!!
GO GATORS!
The 2014 Admissions Report:
http://www.admissions.ufl.edu/flipbooks/2014_Admissions_Report/
Page 9 has the admissions info:

By Residency:
Florida: 21,298 applications => 10,369 Admits (48.7%) => 5,855 Enrolled (56.5% Yield rate)
OOS: 5,486 Applications => 2,332 Admits (42.5%) => 569 Enrolled (24.4% Yield rate)
International: 1,377 Applications => 281 Admits (20.4%) => 59 Enrolled (21% yield rate)
Page 12 has the number of scholarships given to freshman students. The last three in the table are for OOS students and are tuition reduction awards (based OOS tuition is about $29,000 a year):
Alumni

Number awarded: 12
Applied OOS from NJ

Great resource there @Gator88NE ! It provided some valuable information 
Though I have to admit the 20% acceptance rate for international students is a little unsettling- and out of 1377 only 59 were finally enrolled… guuuulp
I would think you have to be carefull comparing acceptance rates across those three pools of applicants. For in-state students, UF is very cost effective, students will turn down Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Emory, etc, due to price and go with UF. However, UF loses that advantage when viewed by full pay OOS/International students.
Acceptance rates = Yield rates
If you’re looking at admit rates, likely many of the internationals are denied due to missing requirements or incomplete applications. Don’t let that low rate discourage you.
For 2014, in state tuition at UF is $6,300 while out of state tuition is $28,588. Coupled with the fact that most other southern state schools have low in-state tuition, it is no surprise that UF’s OOS yield drops so much.
Wow! UF is tough with giving out-of-state scholarships
During their admissions session, they said that they do a blind admission, which means that they do not see if you are in state or out of state!
@caitlin97 I doubt they do that because each state has their own UF admissions rep that looks through the applications so they obviously know if you’re out of state 
Thank you @Gator88NE !!!
Usually they use “blind” admissions to mean “need blind” admissions, they don’t take into account the person’s need for financial aid.
UF’s AO will state that they don’t penalize an OOS student during admissions. And they don’t…but…
UF does consider (as part of the holistic admission process), geographical residence and to a lesser degree state residency. See table C7 in UF’s CDS information.
http://www.ir.ufl.edu/CDS/cds2014-2015.pdf
Think of it this way, if you’re in the top 25% of applications (by GPA and test scores), you would not need to depend on UF holistic admissions (Nonacademic elements, like EC’s) as much as someone who’s in the bottom 25%. It’s the bottom 25% (academically) of in-state students that may have an advantage over an OOS student with the same stats. If you’re in the bottom 25% of accepted students, UF likely accepted you due to your nonacademic performance.
For example, a first generation student from an under-represented area of Florida (geographical residence) would have an advantage over an OOS student with the same stats. It’s not that UF held being OOS against the student, it’s that the in-state student may have holistic advantages that are not available to the OOS student.
A lower income, first generation student who is OOS is likely not going to apply to UF, due to the OOS tuition cost (unless they have the stats to earn a merit/need based scholarship). For that reason, most of the lower income/first generation students who applied to UF would be in-state.
It’s for this reason I think an OOS student needs to be around the middle 50% of admitted student stats, to have a decent chance of being accepted. Less than that, and the holistic factors will start to lean more toward in-state students.
This and other factors lead to the small difference between in-state admit rates (48.7%) and OOS admit rates (42.5%).
Keep in mind that all of the above is my best guess, or, as the Shadow would say,
“Who knows what evil holistic ways lurks in the hearts of UF admissions officers?
Why haven’t you won your Distinguished Alumni award yet, @Gator88NE ? If only they knew the service you do here on CC to prospective students 
As always, keep it up pal!
