<p>Hello, I am interested in transferring to UF. After searching for various answers on UF websites, I thought that maybe someone could help shed some light on a few questions that I had.</p>
<p>1) I currently attend another Florida state university, and I will have 60+ credits at the end of the spring semester. Will receiving an AA at my current state university increase the likelihood of acceptance, or are the 60 credits seen as equivalent to the AA degree?</p>
<p>2) When are transfer students notified of acceptance? Is there a time window in which I should start anticipating the result of my application?</p>
<p>3) What is the likelihood of being accepted to a limited access major?</p>
<p>4) Will having 18 credits in a limited access major increase likelihood of acceptance?</p>
<p>5) Concerning residency, how would you classify this situation? A student lived in Florida for 12 years, graduated from a Florida high school, and currently attends a state university with the bright future scholarship. Shortly after high school, the parents move away, yet the dependent student still resides fully in Florida. The student has proof of permanent residence, voting rights, and also has a driver license.</p>
<p>6) Should I also send in high school transcripts and SAT scores, or are these unnecessary for junior transfer students?</p>
<p>7) Is there anybody I could e-mail these questions to at UF? I have not found any e-mail addresses that seem to fit my need. I have also sent one e-mail previously but have not received a response.</p>
<p>Thank you very much, I appreciate your help.</p>
<p>1) From what I've heard, UF gives preference to those students coming from a CC with an AA degree. It isn't that you don't have a shot, they just like to pick from the community college pool before the state university one. I don't know if having an AA from your university would help or not though to be honest.</p>
<p>2) I heard I wouldn't know anything until August. That's a lie. I applied in October, heard back in March. So did a lot of my classmates/friends who applied around the same time. You definitely won't hear anything until around March though.</p>
<p>3) I got accepted into a limited access major. Good GPA, make sure you have all of the prereqs that they require, apply early. That's my best advice for that :)</p>
<p>4) If you mean you already have 18 credit hours in the major you're applying to, I'd check with the specific department. </p>
<p>5) I came here as an out of stater, didn't graduate from HS here, and had to go through the whole residency ordeal. They told me that if you're a dependant, they want your parents information. They didn't want anything of mine. If you're classified though as an in-state student at the uni you're at now, hopefully it wouldn't be a problem to stay classfied as in-state. Check with UF directly though.</p>
<p>6) I had to send in high school transcripts and SAT scores. </p>
<p>7) Talk to the Academic Advising Center, or the undergraduate advisor in the major that you are trying to get accepted into. </p>
<p>If you have anymore questions or anything, just ask :) I just went through this myself, so it's still all fresh in my mind :) Good luck!</p>
<p>Agree..good luck !</p>
