<p>I don't know about UF specifically, but FSU requires minimum scores on the SAT before they offer admission (i.e. 500 on each...or 510...I'm not sure exactily because the scores change each year...they get higher)...that is directly from their admissions director. FSU (and USF) has a summer program for students who have potential but may have situations that limit their test scores, etc, (i.e. English is not their first language, first generation to attend college...). Students must attend the summer semester, but then they are able to continue on in the fall...like everyone else.</p>
<p>I would think that UF would have similar requirements and I know they offer students the opportunity to attend in the summer.</p>
<p>Good luck to your friend! He sounds like he will succeed where ever he ends up!</p>
