General Comments: No financial aid and scholarships mean 60K a year, which is a lot to pay. Hopefully i’ll be taken off the waitlist, i want to spend my freshman fall semester on main campus.</p>
<p>Regarding my earlier post, my wording was off and I apologize for any confusion. I have Florida pre-paid, a low EFC, and I will receive 75% bright futures which will pay for, if not all, most of my expensives at UF.</p>
<p>S was deferred ED and wait listed regular. GPA 3.0, test scores 2175.
Does anyone know how their wait list works and what the likelihood of getting off it is?
Also, do they ever outright reject?
Thanks.</p>

<p>Seems odd to me- she has a 32 ACT, 2100 SAT, 4.0 GPA (UW). But nothing of mention about scholarships? I am so disappointed- without that this is not an option for her.</p>
<p>I was waitlisted.
Weighted GPA capped was about a 3.92. Uncapped 3.96.
ACT: 32.
SAT: 2050.
A couple APs and honors sophomore and junior years. 3 APs this year.
Not totally surprised… I messed up sophomore yer but I have an upward trend. I didn’t really want to go to U of Miami that much anyways because it’s just too much money.
My EC’s are all right. Lot of leadership experience and volunteer hours, but on-and-off participation in sports. My essays were good. Yeap, that’s about it! Congrats to everyone who was accepted :)</p>
