I got accepted into UF’s PaCE program, but I was accepted for Fall at FSU, USF, and UCF. My end goal is dental school, so I plan on majoring in biology. I just wanted to know if it is better to attend a different university for the first year and then transfer to UF or just enroll in PaCE and take classes as a transient student at another public university. I have Full Brights from Bright futures so I am not worried about the tuition but I do want to know which option would be better for me. I do want the full college experience, but I have heard from almost every PaCE student I know that the program helps develop study skills faster than if you were to be the typical freshman in college. So this makes me wonder which option has more benefits. I also wonder if it would be harder to be admitted to UF as a transfer student from FSU or USF.

If you are a PaCE student or a transfer student please help me make a decision! I am desperate!
