Guessing by your tag you are also in Colorado? If so, nice to see another Coloradan in here!

104

We are! Are you alumni? (Or a parent is?)

105

I am not! I am actually going to be a first-gen college student, but I grew up in a family of gator fans! When you applied, did you or your son receive an email from the Rocky Mountain Gator Club too?

106

Oh that is awesome! Yes, we did receive that email. I (mom) am alumni. We actually went to watch a game with the RMGC this season in Denver and was super fun.

So, a week before UF decision day, we get an email from admissions about “supporting your student,” helping deal with whatever the outcome, etc. Does that mean my son isn’t getting in? FSU sent us a similar email before he got deferred EA but didn’t today when he got accepted. Just wondering if UF sends to every applicant’s parents or just the ones who aren’t getting accepted next week.

108

No, it was sent to all. It means absolutely nothing.

Countdown for anxious gator hopefuls (like me): Countdown Timer – Countdown to Feb 23, 2024 6:00 pm in Gainesville, Florida

That’s so awesome! I don’t know anyone else who applied to UF, so I’ve been wondering if it’s good sign for admissions or just an auto email that was sent to everyone.

Did you get the supporting your student email from UF last week? I don’t think I got that, but it could be in my junk folder.

112

Never received an email “Supporting your student”. Only received ”UF: What to expect on decision day” about a half hour ago.

113

Are you a student or parent. It’s my understanding that supporting your student only went to parents and what to expect on decison day went to both.

114

I also think that’s the case, I had the supporting students email sent to my parents.

115

I did not include my parent’s contact info on application so they, of course, did not get it. So I can’t check. But I highly doubt it means anything. No college is thinking about decisions when they send how to support your student emails. And it goes both ways, accepted, or otherwise.

Yep, I read the email and it’s very ambiguous, seems similar to the one I read about on the FSU thread.

So to be clear- there are two different emails? My son received the “what to expect,” but I didn’t receive one about supporting students. I’m not sure if my husband did either.

118

It’s possible your son didn’t put you or your spouse down as contacts? I don’t believe my mother has received any emails during the college process.

119

Also received the email! I know it’s unrealistic but I always wish they would just release decisions as they’re made lol. It’s almost more anxiety inducing when you know the specific time and date!

Yep, two different emails. My mom got one this morning about “supporting your student”, who I put down as a contact! Students (myself included) got the information about decisions release as a separate email, if that makes sense!
