<p>Yeah my step-mom wants me to go to UF but I believe it’s overrated and I have friends that regrettably go there. They say it’s horrible and UCF is in a great urban area and is an outstanding university.</p>
<p>Okay I believe I just payed the enrollment deposit and I will obviously have to pay for summer and fall when the housing app comes out. Thank or clearing that up for me! :)</p>
<p>Im a current UCF student who applied for summer term in 2011
I just want to let many of you know that you have nothing to worry about.
I had a 23 ACT and idr my SAT because it was that bad lol. I had a 3.7 or 3.8 gpa and 1 AP class. I wasn’t involved in a lot of clubs either. I was only in a few sports throughout high school.</p>
<p>I applied by middle of September and I was notified in the middle of November.
Just wanted to throw some perspective out there. Good luck to all you future little Knight :)</p>
<p>PoloKnight, how do you like the school?</p>
<p>Ah, I just want my twin brother to find out already. He NEEDS to be there with not. Not simply because I can’t function without him-we’re both very independent. He needs to get out of this household, just as much as I do. Plus, he loves UCF. I really hope he gets in. Ah, finger crossed!</p>
<p>Ha, I have YET to pay any of my deposit fees. I know I’m paying for summer this upcoming wee, and for fall later on.</p>
<p>When do we pay for summer and fall? I payed the enrollment but I don’t see anything about a payment on summer or fall</p>
<p>When sending in your scores, did you sat scores send quickly? I paid for college board to send my sat scores on Monday and my ucf account hasn’t received it. They have received my act scores though. Do sat scores normally take more time?</p>
<p>Sent from my ADR6325 using CC App</p>
<p>Does anyone know how much Money ucf is gunna give them.? (mainly for instate but I would also like to know out of state)</p>
<p>Okay so I applied to UCF on September 22nd. I still have not heard anything from the admissions department and when I go onto the myUCF site. They say they still are reviewing my application. Has anyone else waited this long? What are my chances of getting in?

<p>What is your weighted gpa</p>
<p>Drew- I would suggest taking the SAT once more, or maybe the ACT. That SAT score is about a 21 ACT, and I’ve always felt as though the imaginary ‘cut off score’ was a 22. There’s been some individuals to get in with a 22, but I haven’t seen someone with a 21 or lower.</p>
<p>My weighted is 4.6 but I’m not sure how to recalculate that.</p>
<p>@Writefluidity I don’t think I can take the SAT again. My parents are friends with a newspaper writer and she helped me with my essay. I want to do pre-law so I looked up their things that can help me and I put them in my essay. I’m hoping my essay gets me in!</p>
<p>I know essays can be very powerful, but maybe, I highly reccomend, trying the ACT. I really do this you’ll do well on it. I got in with a 22 ACT, and very similar GPA, maybe one point higher (for 3.3). However, I was very strong in extra circulars (As well as 700 community service hours), and I really think you should try the ACT.</p>
<p>I missed the deadline for the ACT and didn’t put on my application that I would be taking it. I’m in a lot of clubs at my school and volunteered at the hospital in my city. I just can’t stop wondering why it’s taking so long to receive a decision.</p>
<p>It took me over two months to get my acceptance, which is a miracle. You could try for the ACT in february? I’m just trying to help you increase your chances, because it’s very competitive this year. Many people look at me stats, and think, ‘If she can get in, I can’. However, they don’t realize that I wrote on there I play four instruments, compete competitly in violin, have published writing, wrote two novels, etc.</p>
<p>Dang that’s pretty impressive. Congrats on getting in!</p>

<p>There’s only one $200 enrollment fee that’s due by May 1st. The Summer and Fall fees that people are referring to are the housing fees. If you’re starting in the Summer, you will pay a $100 deposit, and a $200 deposit for Fall housing, for a total of $350. Since housing is not open yet, you can’t pay these fees.</p>
<p>Kyle~</p>
<p>Sorry, I meant $250 for Fall.</p>
<p>Drewdog-
Only statistically speaking, your 1520 SAT is right about at the 50 % level for all
SAT scores around the country meaning you will probably not get accepted to UCF
with that score. Pay the penalty fee, take the December 3rd test, study very hard during the next two weeks and hope to raise your score at least 180 points. Good Luck !</p>
