So I am currently at a community college. I will receive my AA degree this summer. I am doing 5 classes this spring and 4 in the summer to finish. The problem is I have a very low gpa because in the past I had a lot of personal issues and I am not going to make excuses to try to cover them up.

Anyways my gpa as it currently stands is 2.10. Ouch! I know it’s absolutely horrible but I did good to bring it up in 2013. As far as I understand it UCF honors grade forgiveness. So what I want to know is should I wait to apply to ucf after the spring semester when my gpa will have improved or should i just do it now. I see march 1 is the financial aid priority deadline and I can’t afford to pay for school on my own.

Any advice would be helpful. Thank you.
