You'd better e-mail bright futures about this.

I talked to my counselor. It was because I hadn't completed my 2nd foreign language class. I just finished it online at FLVS so she said that Bright Futures will update it to 100% in June.

I have a question about Bright Futures. Right now UCF has me estimated at 100% BF, but I got an email from the Bright Futures people saying that I needed to accept my "75%" award. This is probably because my last few hours STILL haven't been registered on my profil (turned it in early feburary mind you). What should I do? Should I try to accept the 75% and upgrade to 100 or what. I also need to call them to help figure this out, and harass my school's administration to get my hours in.

You need to get in contact with your guidance department at school because they upload all of your information digitally to the Bright Futures database. It's likely they didn't bother to update it again after your service hours. They're probably they're waiting until the end of the year to finalize everything they send to Bright Futures, but you should definitely check with them NOW, and keep "reminding" them two or three times a week, and checking your Bright Futures account online as well, to make sure they do it. I know some guidance offices have trouble getting things done on time.

I've been paranoid and going crazy about Bright Futures because I'm sort of in the same situation. Basically I have 75% right now because of my scores before January 31st, but my scores in February make me eligible for 100%.

We won't get a letter about any updated information from after January 31st until mid-August because that is the next time they update and submit award information. I would e-mail or personally speak to the Bright Futures people and tell them your situation to make sure that you do qualify and that you can count on a letter in mid-August.

I was paranoid because my ACT scores would have to be a superscore for me to qualify and I wasn't sure if Bright Futures superscored or not, but after contacting and confirming with every possible person... I do qualify and so we just have to wait until August to get the official letter.

As for whether to accept or not I don't know the answer to that. Let me know if you figure that out.
