<p>hope i get my letter today =D</p>

<p>ryanmac: in what college was the lady that said that?</p>

<p>The woman that I spoke to in CLAS, said that there were over 1200 applicataions for summer B and Falll 09 combined, and only 3 people are on the committee that reviews the apps.</p>

<p>she was with CALS</p>

<p>=) the big envelope arrived today</p>

<p>So I guess they put everyone in for the SMART Grant? I called today because the only thing listed in my awards was grants, but I need some LOANS to come through!! Haha, who has 14,000 dollars laying around? </p>

<p>Anyone going to the Transfer Preview on June 1st?</p>

<p>Look for a guy that looks like a lumberjack, without the suspenders, and say hi. That’s me. I know exactly NO ONE that goes to UF anymore.</p>

<p>zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz</p>

<p>I hope I’m not the last one to be reviewed. :(</p>

<p>lol, seriouslyyyy</p>

<p>ya banjo, FSU offered tons of money in loans to me, but UF gave even more in grants…no loans offered from uf to me.</p>

<p>lol 14,000, im guessing thats out of state O.O</p>

<p>, i am taking my final exam in math tomorrow…need to do well to not have my admission revoked, i didn’t even come to think that UF would have put admission conditions on classes not on the Pre.req. list</p>

<p>STATS:</p>

<p>3.2 GPA; 4.0 pre-pro./Fall 09 from FL public U
Telecommunications/News Major
Dean’s List
Reporter/Asst. News Director for college radio station/ Editorial Board member/writer for college paper
Satisfied CLAST, foreign language req, pre-reqs, 4 required entrance classes & summer req.
I also have 2 pretty good rec letters from the associate dean of the j-school and my professor here and my employer who graduated from my major and won many broadcasting awards and money for the school.</p>

<p>I have been stressing since last Nov. even when I drove up there from Orlando and the head of admissions flagged my name to review my app and even with all of my radio/print jobs and my experience working as a law clerk. I hardly believe UF’s admission is based only on GPA.</p>

<p>where did you turn in rec letters, they never ask for them (or explain how to send for transfers)…so…I guess they wouldn’t weigh them in considerably or even at all.</p>

<p>only how simply you are prepared for your major…nonetheless people on here have been admitted with stats similar to you!</p>

<p>they won’t even read the rec letters</p>

<p>rsala who’s gotten in with a 3.2?</p>

<p>The coordinator of the journalism student services office told me in person that they do take into consideration in weighing your app. atleast 2 rec letters -but not too many so that it overkills.</p>

<p>I guess I’ll ammend my statement to CLAS then</p>

<p>I hope we all do get in…It’s been such a long wait.</p>

<p>long is an understatement.</p>

<p>Well, CLAS never asked for recommendation letters.</p>

<p>danny remember we had the letter of intent. I prefer that over someone speaking on my behalf.</p>
