hear back from ucf summer 2012?

<p>USF hasn’t started accepting Summer applicants yet. It’ll be any day now. </p>

<p>Overcome- your fine for USF</p>

<p>Am I gonna be able to get Housing for UCF, if I’m gonna be waiting for FSU and UFs decision??</p>

<p>Thank you mattzobel. I hope you are right.
I just called them now and the young lady who answered was really nice. My daughter’s new SAT scores were sent to them on October 28th and they still have not updated her status. I asked them if they have received them or not. She asked my daughter’s name and birthday and looked on her computer. she said that they received the new ones, but then I forgot to ask her if she could update her application!!! ugh! so frustrating. I asked how long it would take she said 4-6 weeks…and I asked: "so, by mid November maybe? and she said yes. we shall see!</p>

<p>matt, were u deferred as well?
I know people who go to ucf and got it after first semester senior year and they got housing, no problem.
How do you know they are not notifying summer yet?</p>

<p>@overcome11 - can you verify which ACT test scores were reported to UCF on the 28th of October? Was it the October 22nd test? That is the one we just got scores for. But isn’t it strange that UCF and other schools would get the scores before the students do? </p>

<p>It’s so frustrating doing this whole process again. I just got my oldest son off to college in August and then having to do this all over again has worked on my last nerve. My oldest son was easy as he had a really high ACT and a really high GPA so he got accepted quickly to those schools with rolling admission. We had to do the endless wait for UF in February and I thought that was painful. This seems worse. lol</p>

<p>Jena,
My daughter took her last SAT October 1rst I think. college board sent those scores to USF and UCF on October 28th.
The October ACT just came out today.
I have only one daughter. I cant imagine having to go through this more than once. LOL. This whole process is beyond stressing!!!</p>

<p>widsom, congrats on the honors college. what were your stats btw? Im going to apply on Friday since I have the day off from school</p>

<p>I had 660 Math, 700 CR, 680 Writing, 9 Essay, 29 ACT, 3.69 UW GPA, 4.09 Weighted GPA, 100 hours of volunteer service, 1 club (Mu Alpha Theta).</p>

<p>Good luck dolphin.</p>

<p>Congratulations Wisdom! I will definitely be referring to you while completing my application!</p>

<p>damn wisdom. your totals 100 somethin higher than mine but hopefully they look more at the reading/math…how long was you personal statement and did you send any other materials?</p>

<p>Congrats! i hope i join you there. finishing up my app as i send this</p>

<p>were only 40 different in cr+math</p>

<p>I am not too far off from you</p>

<p>I have a 710 Writing, 680 Math, and 640 in CR
3.65 UW and 4.7 Weighted GPA(thats for my school, for UCF is like 4.3)
I’ve got like 300 service hours and some leadership as well.</p>

<p>Hopefully I get in. I just have had no time for apps between work and school.</p>

<p>^agreed. this honors app is worse than the regular UCF one</p>

<p>Wisdom what do you recommend for preparing for the ACT? I’m looking to improve my scores .</p>

<p>Overcome-
I was accepted to UCF, but I wanna hear from UF and FSU before I submit my $200 for Housing…
I am worried that if I go to UCF, I won’t have gotten housing by then</p>

<p>Personal statement was 154 words, was planning on about 400 but the “succinctly” stood out in the directions and made be cut it down. Sent 2 letters of recommendation and the co-curricular involvement thing.</p>

<p>As for the ACT, I didn’t really prepare for either the SAT or the ACT and I only took them once. I’d recommend a good mindset to approach it, good night of sleep, good breakfast. If I was to retake it I’d read some guides on this forum and brush up on some basic math rules.</p>

<p>Overcome, my D was accepted to USF in Oct. For Fall</p>

<p>How did you get yours to 154 words wisdom? whatd you talk about?</p>

<p>@overcome11 - wow, UCF already got my sons new and improved ACT score. I can’t believe it. We just got it ourselves yesterday. Maybe a decision is coming soon.</p>

<p>I hope so Jena!! Good luck for you guys!!! :slight_smile: we are still waiting to hear from USF summer. Someone mentioned they are not notifying summer yet. I am not sure how people know that.
I am frustrated because USF has not updated my d’s new SAT scores which are better and they were sent to them since october 28th.</p>
