<p>Hello, everyone! I am currently a student at a Pennsylvania CC. After completing a year at CC, I realized exactly what I want in a college. After some research, I have found that UF has a lot of the attributes (great football, college town, large campus, etc) that I am looking for. What are my chances of being admitted? I plan to apply for the Fall 2015 semester.</p>
