University of Florida Spring 2017 Transfers

@lhood6 There is no room for negativity until you know it for sure my friend.

No. I was denied just got the confirmation tonight. Congrats to all!

@lhood6 damn, sorry bud. Im surprised because my gpa is lower than yours. Perhaps it has something to do with traditional and non-traditional.

@Luocifer they said they’ll send an explanation. I’m super bummed! However I’ll be close to my mom and where I want to live for the rest of my life. Coming here was an adventure in its self. Everything happens for a reason.

@lhood6 Sorry to hear that man. You’re right in saying that “things happen for a reason.” If you feel that not attending UF is the right path for you, and you can make peace with that great! I applied to UF back in May for the fall 2016 term. I was rejected. I busted my butt during this past summer term and brought my GPA up and reapplied for Spring 2017. I got accepted the second time around. I’m not trying to instill false hopes, but if its your goal, don’t give up and try again.

@cutlass516 Thank you!! I think Im ready to go home. I moved down here from Alabama to try something new and I’ve sacrificed so much time away from my daughter and husband. I was a Highschool drop out, So I have already achieved more than I have ever imagined. Therefore, I’m not into taking more time away from my family to go after a dream. I tried my best and worked hard and I will still get a quality education at UWF. So Congrats to all!!!

Not to mention all my lovely students I tutor and the amazing people along the way. Itll be a failure for a short time but no use harping on the past. :))

@lhood6 i am a high school dropout as well. You can always apeal with Uf.

@lhood6 Best of luck to you

Does anyone know when we’re supposed to get our letters in the mail? I still haven’t gotten mine and I’ve been accepted for 2 weeks.

@altaria It usually takes a bit for it to get to your mailbox, but don’t worry, there is nothing you don’t know already in that huge envelope.

For all of you guys that have been accepted, do you know if there is any possible way to register for classes before orientation? Because the orientation is not until some time in December

@vinazhn do u have any housing plan??

@gators987 Not legally lol. Its gonna be so much fun to get the left over classes with awful professors…

They have not released the official dates for transfer orientation. They should by the end of October. When I talked to the school they said there is usually one mid December and another one in early January.

I got my acceptance letter about two and a half weeks after I was accepted.

Wohooo, got accepted today!!! but i don’t see anything in conditions of acceptance online…?

I have a questions for those that have been accepted.

Do you guys have any of the critical tracking courses in progress??

@Luocifer No, I don’t have any housing plan yet. Don’t know where to start. Waiting for the letter to come.

@vinazhn if you need a roomate, let me know. I am currently looking for a place and Its good to live with someone thats going for the same major.
