UF likes to see EC’s that show a commitment. It’s better to be in a few for several years (and a lot of hours), versus a lot of small ECs. They will LOVE that she spends 20+ hours a week on dance/ballet. Plus the 4 years volunteering as a Games Day girl, etc. They even like the fact that she’s worked a job.

They only consider GPA from 9th thru 11th grade (and some classes in the 8th grade, if they are college prep and on your school’s transcripts). They don’t consider your grades in 12th grade when calculating your GPA. In 12th grade, they want to make sure she takes rigorous classes. If she does get accepted, they will ask for her transcripts after the school year ends. It’s possible, with poor grades, to get her offer rescinded, so you need to get at least C’s.

UF does NOT consider major in admissions. Pick any major, or none.

UF does have a few limited access programs, such as biomedical engineering. In that case you will be accepted as pre-somethingortheother, and have to met the requirements by the start of your junior year.

Good Luck!
