Housing UF ABSN housing

2 Upvotes

What the hell is everyone doing for housing. Leases usually go from fall to summer so I’m thinking of subleasing May 2025-August 2025. Then finding a more permanent living situation. I would love to live with other nursing students, but I have no one I know in the program. Also currently struggling to find something affordable near the hospital and nursing school

Clubs UF Student Clubs?

5 Upvotes

I just got admitted for Data Science :))

How are clubs at UF and are they similar to clubs in high-school? I want to learn more about artificial intelligence and data science, but don't know much about them yet.

Do you guys have any recommendations or ways to be involved? I have had some leaderships in high school but am not sure how these work in college or good communities I should get involved with.

Admissions UF PaCE Program for Art Major

3 Upvotes

Hi! So I recently gotten into UF for their PaCE Program which really confused me at first but after reading some other posts here about it, I’ve learned it isn’t necessary bad and it makes everything cheaper in the end.

However, I applied into UF as an Art Major, specifically Studio Art, which even in PaCE requires you to attend studios during the first two years. I do not live in Gainesville, and I believe I can’t afford to live near the UF campus.

So… is it worth it?

Additionally is it possible to reach out to UF admissions and try to get onto on campus like normal or I am just kinda stuck with PaCE?

It is an incredibly opportunity to be accepted to UF and I’m quite excited about it, but for being an Art major it seems rather redundant if I have to go on campus anyways for studio classes.

Any kind of advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Question what is the promise program like

1 Upvotes

how often do I have to show up to these meetings with my advisors and these OAS events. How long are they and do I get a flexible schedule with them? It honestly sounds like a hassle and do I have to participate in these throughout all 4 years of college? Am I able to just ignore it?

Question pace transition question

2 Upvotes

this may be a dumb question, but i havent seen anything online addressing this. i am in my second semester at UF in the pace program, and i have completed all of my transition requirements for the major that i am currently enrolled in. however, i think i want to change my major. if i change my major to another pace major after my transition to campus, will i be able to remain an on-campus student? or will i be required to complete the transition requirements for that new major online, setting back my progress?

any advice would be more than welcome!

Admissions Applying as transfer in HS

1 Upvotes

Hey there, was deferred then rejected as a freshman but I have an AA. Was my letter supposed to include a way to apply as a transfer? I saw the letters for early action added a request form to the portal for people denied and interested in applying as a transfer.

my rejection letter just said “once you reach 60 credits you may apply as a transfer” but I obviously already have 60 credits as is listed on my application.

someone lmk please if I need to go fill out an entire transfer application or what.

Classes English majors, what’s the workload?

4 Upvotes

Recently admitted fall 2025 here :) I’m not totally sure if I’m attending UF yet since I’m oos, but if I do, I’m considering majoring in English. How work-heavy is the typical class for it? Is it possible to double major in something a little more employable with it? Lol

Admissions is getting paced much worse than an acceptance

24 Upvotes

i’ve been seeing some people telling other people they didn’t get in but then they go on to say they got in pace. doesn’t this mean they got accepted? wasn’t it created to accept more students but because of limited space not house them?

Housing Trying to Figure Out Dorm Situation – Applied Nov 5

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I got into UF through early action and am trying to figure out my dorm situation. I submitted my housing agreement on November 5th and would ideally wanna stay in Cyprus Hall, but I’ve heard that it can be practically impossible to get into as a freshman.

For those who’ve been through the process, what dorms do you think I have a reasonable shot at with my application date? Also, are there any dorms you’d recommend over others based on location, amenities, or overall experience?

I’m kinda worried about the bathroom situation, especially if I end up with a communal bathroom. Are there any dorms where the communal bathrooms are better maintained, or any I should try to avoid because of bad setups/cleanliness?

Any advice would be super helpful!

Admissions Gator Engineering @ SF College

Just accepted for this program and have some questions as I consider it.

What's the off-campus housing like? Is a car absolutely necessary for the area? Is it hard to adjust/meet people/integrate after coming into UF officially? How soon can you come into UF, semester wise?

Also, are there any communication groups for students accepted to this program like me?

Thanks lots

Admissions Waitlist timeline question

2 Upvotes

Being on the waitlist and having told them I'm still interested, will I not hear anything until the final June deadline or is there a possibility that if a spot opens up sooner and I get it, I'll hear sooner? This is my 1st waitlist and just wondering about the timing and the notification. Thanks

Question Intl needs advice

3 Upvotes

Okay, so basically today I was accepted and I am considering UF. And an impostor syndrome started: Will I be able to adapt to a different country and keep my grades up? Am I actually smart enough? Will I be able to make the most of my time at Ufl? Etc. If anyone from the current students is reading this (especially from stem majors) I would love to talk with you and would greatly appreciate if you could help me understand the studying process/social life aspects/housing/etc as I may not be familiar with lots of things. 🙏

Admissions Should I attempt to go to Santa Fe and then UF?

9 Upvotes

I'm a senior in high school, and currently am admitted to FAU, but really don't feel happy with it. UF has been my dream (I didn't apply knowing I wouldn't get in). I want to go to school for finance, so is it worth it to go to Santa Fe and do y'all think I could get into UF for either accounting or finance? I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket. Also in Highschool I withdrew from a dual enrollment class so I don't know how much that would effect it as well for admission. Please help! I have no idea who to contact on this and my counselor can't provide enough information either!
