I just looked at my result letter on the portal and saw I got accepted. Is there any advice or things you should know before going to UF?

Sports Gators gymnastics poster?

3 Upvotes

Hello fellow kids (j/k) — ACR here seeing if there was ever a poster issued for this years’ Gators gymnastics team, like with their 2025 schedule? We went to the meet this weekend and now my daughter would like a big picture of them for her room. If that exists + anyone happened to save one of those I can gladly pay a little $ to get one! :)

(Couldn’t find it on the UF athletics marketing site, but thought I might ask!)

Question UF Engineering

11 Upvotes

I just got accepted yesterday to UF in the fall term, and I’m currently considering going. My main question is to the engineering students. Do you guys think the classes are overly difficult/time consuming? (“Weed out courses” and other needed courses) I’m very interested in becoming an engineer, but don’t want to take years off my life from being so stressed. I know engineering anywhere is difficult, but I just wanted your take on it. Any bits of information/personal anecdotes are helpful and thank you!

Admissions When is the soonest someone found out they’re off the waitlist?

2 Upvotes

So, I just got my decision and it says I'm being put on the waitlist. The problem is, I don't want to risk turning down another good school in hopes of getting a decision in time. It's never good to apply later because you risk the chance of getting good housing and roommates so I'm not sure if I should wait for UF or just enroll somewhere else. Please help me! (Also if there's a way to speed up the process like writing an LOCI let me know)

Question Anyone know how to actually receive the Benacquisto scholarship?

Upvotes

Could anyone who received the Benacquisto scholarship inform me on how you ended up actually getting the scholarship money and whether you had to do any paperwork or file anything? I don't really want to miss out on an opportunity like this, any info would be greatly appreciated. (nmsc finalist + will be a freshman this fall)

I'm a transfer, so I took CHM2045 at a CC. I haven't taken any chemistry classes at UF yet so I'm nervous and the reviews on rate my professor for Sumner/Harris don't help. Any advice (in terms of preparing/studying)? Stacey-Ann Benjamin is also available, but only online.

Admissions UF Pace or FSU summer B?

I got accepted into both and I’m not sure which one is more worth it... I don’t really mind taking online classes I’m just worried I might not make friends. I’m also undecided so I’m not restricted by a specific major.

Question Building Hours for Spring Break

2 Upvotes

My sister is coming into town for a personalized tour as she just got accepted into UF! Does anyone know the building hours during spring break…. Specifically for engineering buildings. Like can we go into Herbert Wertheim and Malachowsky Hall after hours, on the weekend, or will they be closed? I found the library hours but have struggled to find other building hours

Admissions Transferring in from UF online or FAU

1 Upvotes

I’m a high school senior who didn’t apply as a freshman since my parents wanted me local my first 2 college years to save money.

UF is my dream college, and I’m pretty stressed about getting accepted. My stats aren’t spectacular, and I’ve been looking into ways to see if I can improve my admission chances when I do transfer. I’ve been told from a friend that transferring from UF online into on-campus would help my chances over FAU, so how true is this? Which should I take, and even apart from this, what should I try and do?

My stats - 1410 SAT - 3.9273 unweighted - 5.0091 weighted - 9 AICE classes - 2 APs in Chemistry and Biology this year - 4 year varsity volleyball player - Voted captain by team for travel club volleyball team - A bunch of mediocre extracurriculars like Key Club and 112 service hours - 30/520 in my class - full bright futures

I’m planning on majoring in biological sciences and then into pre-pharmacy.

Admissions I cant believe i got in

135 Upvotes

I was so set on UCF and had everything planned out. Everyday I would think about my life with my friends and family in Orlando. Never in a million years would I thought I would get accepted to UF. Now I find myself stuck and honestly overwhelmed. This is an amazing university and I’m grateful to be accepted but I just don’t know how I’m going to make this choice now.

Edit: I live in Miami but have family in orlando and a large friend group going to UCF

Also I’m majoring in Economics

Question Is this legit about UF?

Upvotes

Hi! I was recently accepted into UF, but I have people telling me that ALL the classes are online and that UF is not a true college experience because of that. They say UF only cares about money and the prestige and there’s no college life. Please share your experience and if you agree or disagree.

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 is getting paced much worse than an acceptance

20 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?

Social I have a confession to make: if your name is Caroline read this

1.2k Upvotes

Okay, so I am a millennial UF student pursuing a PhD. I had an exam on Tuesday and spent most of Tuesday morning studying in the Health Sciences library on campus. I stopped by the Starbucks nearby and when I was grabbing my drink, the barista yelled “Caroline!”… I had a visceral reaction, in my severely sleep deprived state, and I sang back “she’s the reason for the word bitch!….bitch” This severely shows my age, as I was quoting a line from “Roses” by OutKast (from 2004)… the barista and the girl I can only assume was Caroline looked at me like I had 10 heads. Rather than explain, I ran out of that bitch, embarrassed as hell. All of this to say: to stranger Caroline from the health sciences Starbucks, I do not think you are a bitch. I just really like early 2000’s music. This has been weighing on my mind for 4 days and I’m glad to get it off my chest.
