Data from 2008 Summer B vs. Fall admissions...

<p>not all people that were enrolled in the summer b term necessarily applied for the summer b term, colleges sometimes have some students start in the summer so they can get acclimated to the college first, which would explain why their scores/sats would be lower than the normal standards.</p>

<p>“Summer B is no different from fall in terms of competition, as all freshman applicants are evaluated as a class. There is no distinction between terms, so there is no admission advantage or disadvantage to choosing summer or fall entry.”</p>

<p>[University</a> of Florida - Admissions](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ufl.edu/ugrad/frapply.html]University”>Freshman - How To Apply - University of Florida)</p>

<p>some people apply for fall, and then when accepted get summer b, or spring, because the addmissions office looks at the apps as a whole (which is why theres a november 4th deadline), and then decide who’s in, and then move people around for the terms or whatever.</p>
