when's your app deadline, and when do you guys find out?

I didn't apply to UF, but to FSU for spring 10'
They sent me a notification saying my app is on hold cause they need my CLAST scores.

I applied to USF and UCF in addition to FSU, but I'm not interested in them. I haven't looked @ my status.
Did you guys apply to FSU?

right now i have a 3.55..by the time i'm done with Fall 09 i'm hoping to have a 3.6^...i doubt i'll get in with that GPA..a couple of years ago you could get into UF from Santa Fe with a 3.0..makes me mad

You never know. I didn't think I'd get into FL state. They have a pretty low acceptance rate for transfers.
I didn't apply to UF b/c at UF, it's almost impossible to get in if you're not a CC student. FSU doesn't have a preference, but they auto accept TCC kids.
Another thing you have to look at is the selectivity of your major.

Wow! Well I'm taking it from some statistic I saw that said 10% of the transfers accepted were "other" (not fla cc).

sophie , i just went to preview that statistic is indeed correct ...lol

"raise of hand, who comes from cc"
**about everyone raises hand**
"I should have asked, who comes from university, raise hands"
**I raise my hand along with 2 others**

..this was in a full auditorium at the reitz union
^^

but dont think its impossible ;]
apply anyway, i thought i liked UF before...after attending preview I know I will be happy there.

there was even a couple (out of hundred+) out of state people

I was one of the ones in that auditorium who raised their hand for a CC transfer, rsala. : )

Anyway, don't be overly discouraged by that statistic, Sophie. I met a solid handful of transfers yesterday at Preview not from CC, so it certainly is possible. I definitely recommend at least applying.
