Pre-Vet UF vs. UCF

<p>I'm having a hard time deciding between UCF or UF for my undergraduate Pre-Vet studies. UF is the only veterinary medicine school in Florida so that's probably where I'm going for graduate school. I got accepted to UCF for the summer and also applied to UF for the summer. I believe I have a pretty good chance of getting into UF as my SAT score is 1340/2040, my bright futures GPA is 4.34 and I have a pretty good amount of EC's.</p>

<p>I'm leaning towards UCF right now because I think there is more opportunity for job internships and community service. I also received the Pegasus Gold and I'm applying to the Honors college.</p>

<p>However, I've heard a lot people tell me that it's better if I got to UF for undergrad because it would make it easier to get into vet school, although this probably isn't true. I also know that UF has better academics overall..</p>

<p>Does anyone have any advice for me??</p>

<p>My honest advice would be to wait until Feb. 13th until you find out if you are accepted to UF. Four years ago, my niece was interested in the same program at UF and did not get in to the Pre-Vet program, long before admissions standards were so difficult. She majored in Biology instead, and now attends UM medical school. Since you like UCF and received a scholarship, I would keep that option open, too.</p>
