Advising - Marine Science has the same prerequisites as a TON of science majors - it part it is about telling the Biology students that is not what Med Schools want to see and of course there are all the gen eds that need to be completed. There is always the standby joke - What do you call an Entomologist? - A Biologist with a job.

Good question!! I am also wondering if a student applied with a major not offered under PACE does UF possibly accept them as PACE?
No, only students who are interested in PaCE majors receive that offer. Some of the others are considered for our Engineering and DCP Partnership programs at Santa Fe or State College of Florida.
Hi there and thank you for all your information. Really helps with the anxiety and stress. I have a question…If a student applied with a major not in PACE can they still be accepted Pace? Thank you

Have you considered that there might be something wrong with your application? You may check your CA system if you also apply to other colleges. Normally, if you receive many rejections but your stats are strong, you either neglect something that is critical for the admission teams or your recommendation letters have negative statements that stop colleges from admitting you.

My recommendation letters were all strong, besides, VT and UF don’t consider them. The only thing I can think of is my essays must be sub par.
I’m manifesting you get in.

Actually, both VT and UF require one RL from the counselor. I’m not sure how you can tell your letters are strong, but normally we don’t have any access to them. There are examples of students with high stats but very few offers out of almost twenty applications (reasonable range), it turned out that they forgot to provide AS and A2 predicted scores as an ALEVEL student, or IB/AP scores in the system; or they didn’t study the system well and input a lot of wrong answers then messed the system; or they stated something in the essay that really annoyed the admission officers; or the intended major had nothing to do with their application. Your case is absolutely abnormal, but I wish you all the best in becoming a gator.

UF requires a school report. The counselor does not write a personal recommendation letter.

I wouldn’t read being denied at UVA as a bad sign. My daughter had slightly higher grades than yours and was denied outright. It’s notoriously hard to get into OOS. She was accepted EA Miami with a pretty good merit but not sure how that compares to UF in terms of acceptances. I think you sound like a strong candidate. When UF visited her school she felt that Honors was out of reach, but who knows.
