Transfer to UF - improve my chances?

Hey! I’m looking to transfer to UF.

Before I get started into my real question does anyone know what summer a/c semester means? I’m wanting to apply to summer b but don’t see that option. At the beginning on the summer session I will only have 56 credits instead of 60 so that’s why I’m wanting summer B.

Okay next question.

Does employment or volunteering help transfers or not?

Last question.

Would writing a touchy subject be ok? I have a legit reason to write about it because it affected my gpa. Would it be bad to write about it in the essay or not?

Would a letter of recommendation help?
