UCF Acceptance/Rejected Thread for Summer or Fall 2017

Forgot to post this, but I was accepted about a week ago.
Term Applied For: Fall
Program: Undergraduate
Residency: OOS
UW GPA: not sure
W GPA: 95.6 (didn’t calculate w/ UCF scale)
SAT: 2030 old, 1410 new
11 AP classes- World History, US History, Physics 1, Physics 2, Biology, Calc BC, French Language, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, US Government, and Macroeconomics.

Really hoping to receive a scholarship! I hope they’re released soon.

@ks3210 All the best to you. I hope you get a scholarship!

S’s stats are very similar to yours: SAT 1430 (new), 14 IB classes, GPA (W) 4.22 out of 4.49, OOS Residency (Virginia). A scholarship from UCF will likely make the difference is S decides on UCF (Mechanical Engineering). S is still debating about whether to apply for the Burnett Honors College, but folks here have said probably best to wait until after scholarship decisions are made.

I just got deferred…

S accepted a month ago. Waiting to hear on merit based scholarships.

@kiraelena99 What were your stats? Did you check your status page or did you receive an email about your application’s status?

I was accepted as a first-year. My stats:

Term applied for: Fall 2017
Residency: Out of state
UW GPA: 3.93
Class rank: 9/224
ACT: 32
1 AP class, 12 dual enrollment
Honors: National Merit Semifinalist, National Honor Society
E-c Activities: varsity crew captain, Model UN treasurer, student council representative, Civil Air Patrol squadron cadet commander, summer employment

I was really hoping we would hear something about scholarships this week:-(

@oceancruizer me too. for the past couple of years they’ve been released 9 weeks after admissions started. maybe it’s different now because they started admissions 2 weeks early?

Term applied for: Fall 2017
Program: Undergraduate

Lots of extra-circulars and will graduate with around 40 Valencia credit hours.

If anyone has questions I’d be happy to answer them. :slight_smile:

@britneynnguyen7

What date did you send in your application and also what date did they receive your transcript and scores?

** Scholarships/Fin Aid **

On S’s Financial Aid page it says…

Does this mean he is still waiting or does it mean NO financial aid? Anyone know?

My daughter’s says the same thing. I think it means she is still waiting.

@STEM2017 Mine looks like that also. I think it’s just a placeholder for now

@STEM2017 I’m pretty sure they haven’t announced any merit awards (as of noon on 11/7). That’s the same info that currently appears on my DS17 page (and being in-state, I’m sure he’ll be awarded something or the other). :slight_smile:

Just checked the portal and I got in! :smiley:

My essay was about how my upbringing has influenced me as a person, and how a change in my religion affected my relationships with others and how I view myself.

@STEM2017 @astrantia Where do you guys check for this information?

Anyone hear anything about scholarships?

No, been checking daily.

So anxious to hear about OOS Scholarships! :((
