Hey guys, so I've created this thread for those who got accepted or rejected to UCF. I have not recieved any word from the university just yet, but I was just curious. Can you guys state your Acceptance/Rejection, state of residence, and possibly your stats (it can help other applicants to see where they stand in terms of ranges). Thanks, Congrats, and Good Luck to all those UCF hopefuls =)
Go Knights!

Rofl, look at who's worried now, haha. I still have yet to send in my transcript or finish my essay. I always feel like the essay is too cliche, but it may just be me. Still waiting anxiously for my ACT scores... Might just send in my application now though. An admission representative from UCF might be coming to my school within a month. This process is so stressful! Good luck to everyone that's applying and congrats to those that are accepted already! I'm totally jealous! Really!

2Black69 & Loony2nz- thanks for your stats and congrats! Gosh...I hope it isn't horribly difficult for out of staters!
Mizzxvii- Lol, can you blame me?! Yeah, send your application ASAP and transcripts as well. If you want me to read over your essay or anything, just IM me =). UCF is visiting you?! They are visiting NJ too!!! I got an email from them and like yelled with excitement. Admissions officers are supposed to come at the end of October and I'm going to reserve my seats to this info session. I am so excited...wow, I am such a nerd =P
But yeah, good luck to all (once again haha).

JTaylor104- Keep us updated, whether if you got accepted or not! My stats are similar to yours, but my SAT is slightly lower *sighs*, and UW GPA is slightly higher, along with class rank being higher.
Good luck!

It takes more than a week to get your stuff evaluated. It took me three weeks after sending in my stuff to get my decision. But your test scores are a little low =/ so they may take more time deciding with you or may await for your ACT to see where you stand. Not trying to scare anyone but every year, colleges get harder to get into, even UCF and USF. Last year a friend of mine got deferred then turned down with a 3.0-something unweighted GPA and a low 1000 SAT score.
but take this with a grain of salt because each individual case is different. Some guy from my school got into UF with a very low SAT score, first time 890 then second time just barley over 1000, but he was in IB and there are other reasons .. while a friend of mine got turned down from UF with a 4.5 GPA and a 1300 SAT and 33 ACT. But for the most part you all should have a solid chance of getting in. good luck! go knights!

Things have changed, but daughter who is a Sr. at UCF was an out of stater (IL) who got in.
GPA 3.87 (No AP and only honors Spanish)
ACT 28
Really good ECs and tons of community service.
Accepted to Honors and LEAD. (LEAD required interview)
Chose LEAD and loved every minute.
LEAD is a GREAT program for those who like community service and being involved (and the housing is excellent) - esp. for out of state kids.
PM if you want any additional information.
Lisa

Yes, it's my first choice. My test score is the only thing that worries me.
