@rlr711 congrats! I just checked mine, and still nothing for me, so kind of starting to worry about my own application
same
how long after you were accepted did you get your financial aid packages? I have my pell grant showing and no loans
@pbmlphs financial packages were given at the beginning of April. They don’t have more money to give such as grants so if you want loans you need to contact your financial advisor. At least that was what they told my boyfriend about a month ago…
At this moment, I have been given contingent acceptance to Heavener. My contingency is based on whether my equivalency form is accepted.
GPA: 3.9
Pre-req GPA: 4.0
School: EFSC (In-state school)
Major: Finance
Whats an equivalency form?
@FutureVet2017 Since I took one of my pre-req courses at a private college out of state I had to submit a form, so UF can decide if theyll accept the credit
Ah! Okay, I thought so but I wasnt sure. Thanks
It’s kinda depressing they don’t save money for the transfer students who get in after they give out money to the freshman and current students. My family already has other students at uf and very high medical expenses and all I got was pell and loans
@pbmlphs It is definitely not fair. I got a pretty good financial package but my boyfriend didn’t. We summitted our applications the same day but his took longer to get acepted. By the time he got in it was too late. Loans are our only option now if we want to attend. They should have managed the money better.
DRD941 Where can I find the equivalence form?
@wendyyy0207 The business school sent it to me
So I was suppose to receive a decision today on whether my equivalency application was accepted or not. Instead,I was informed that they extended the window of the decision by another 4 weeks. This is becoming absolutely ridiculous! I cant wait another 4 weeks. I still need to apply for my classes and find off campus housing. The business school just does not care for their transfer students
Same with the agricultural and life sciences school. I’m still waiting on a decision… the housing options are going fast… i have 3 leases, but i can’t sign one of them if I don’t have my decision
The worst part is I have to keep call the business school to get updates, and the people working in admissions are continuously getting ruder with their answers, and to top it off they keep giving inconsistent answers to my questions
I have called 5-6 times to the college of agriculture and life sciences, and every time they have told me a new date as to when I should know. They told me recently that it will be be end of June… But who knows.
@hkjss1889
Every time I’ve called they’ve said all decisions would be made by July 15th and a few other CALS applicants have said the same.
Officially accepted to the Heavener School of Business
Kind of late in posting, but I was accepted May 22! I signed up for the June 22 Preview. I got my financial aid package today, but didn’t receive any aid or grants. A lot of others I know have said that UF has already ran out of aid to give, so I’m kind of bummed about that. Oh well. Thankfully I have Bright Futures which is helpful. Anyways, good luck for all of those who are still waiting on their decision! Also, congratulations to everyone accepted so far!

I was accepted today!!! Omg, I am ecstatic!!! Definitely worth the wait. For those who are apolyi g to the College of Agricultural & Life Sciences and have not been accepted yet, they are going through applications everyday!! As long as you finished all the required prerequisites and your gpa is at least the minimum then please, you have nothing to worry about. I also met with the Dean of admissions for this college awhile back; she is super sweet and outgoing. Trust me! Start looking for a place to live. You shouldn’t have anything to worry about if you meet the requirements. Also, the preview dates are June 22, July 20, and Aug 10th or the 17th. But goodluck to all those who are still waiting. And for those who have been accepted, Welcome To the GatorNation!!! YAYYY! I will follow up with everything that goes on for those still waiting to hear back. So y’all know what to expect
