@fl1234 and @GatorDad305 i will say this about the apps… i think there is for sure a barrier to do apps… we wanted my daughter to apply to Tulane and Michigan as a stretch school. in addition one other school… her response was " i don’t want to write anymore essays, am i really going to go to that school?". we were like , she is right, why make her do it… plus she didn’t want to write any additional essays lol. this is a top ranked student at her school. since my daughter did the app on her own, i am not sure what is required besides checking a UF box? do they need to write additional essays besides the 600 word essay? i thought UF and FSU made it easy… just the application essay? please tell me what i do not know?
