I’m so nervous but excited at the same time! UF is like my dream school. I got a 26 on the ACT and I have a 4.1 weighted GPA but I also play soccer and have 130+ community service hours. I also think my UF essay was the best I could have done, what are my chances?!?! Either way, good luck to everybody and just think, less than 24 hours till we find out!
Does anyone know when any oos merit aid scholarships are announced? Does ot comr shortly after the admissions decision? Oos merit aid is the only way UF will be affordable for us.

Thanks guys.
To be fair, “chancing” was somewhat one of the ideas of this thread. At this point I suppose one would want peace of mind!
@itstamara “Low stats” or not, if you haven’t already, check out last years thread. If I’m not mistaken, there was someone with similar stats as yours who got accepted
If you were already accepted at those three universities, then I would expect good news tomorrow.
@AGoodFloridian Thanks. Hearing that made me feel a bit better about my chances! Good night!
Good luck to all tomorrow!!
Sincerely,
A transfer student and hopeful gator as well!!
Anybody got an email about applying to UF Housing early this morning? It does not say anything about getting accepted I just thought it was coincidental that they will send it to me the same day of announcement (also do not stress if you did not get it lol).
I didn’t get it. Does that mean I am screwed?
I don’t think so. I will ask people in my school if they received it, and then I will tell you if you’re screwed
My son got it and had already submitted his housing app when he applied. Probably a meaningless glitch, but on a morning like today it’s unfortunate timing and I’m sure will make people try to guess if it means anything. Good luck to everyone tonight.
Maybe they just wanted to remind everyone about housing before decisions are out so the details don’t get lost in the fine print … You know, all the unimportant stuff that follows “CONGRATULATIONS YOU’RE A GATOR!!”
Hm… If this plays out like last year, it doesn’t mean much. However, from what I saw, you -do- receive a housing email AFTER you’ve been accepted, along with a congratulations message inside said email.
Again, on the same note as the “Survey” mishap, the true answer awaits us in a few hours!
@adrianc827 did you ask anyone yet?
I also got the email… what the heck!?
I applied for housing back in November/December and haven’t received an e-mail.
To those who received emails about housing… did you already send in your housing application? I didn’t receive an email and I already sent it in back in November.
I got the email and applied for housing back in september. I still don’t think it means anything.
Yes, I sent my $25 housing fee around the time i applied (October/November) and still received an email from them this morning.
