I have a highscool 4.0 gpa & I was homeschooled for highschool. I got 1100 on my SATs (im not a good test taker, I could of did better) Im applying as a transfer & I have less than 11 credits & I passed the courses I took. I do have community service experience, I participate in extra curricular activities. Im really scared my deadline is July 1st & I am hoping to get in. The classes I have taken at a community college were really only for personal enrichment becauses they were independent study courses but they were general education courses english, science, art, etc & I received credit, but Im wondering if I should still submit them. This my dream school & I want to go to UCF so bad. I am also an out of state student. I was also wondering why colleges want your social security number & does UCF ask for this? I dont feel too comfortable about giving it out even though Im sure UCF wont try to steal it or anything else from me. Im also thinking that with me being a homeschooled student, that might mess my chances up. I have my transcripts from my teacher who taught me, but unfortunately she has passed away she was almost 70 years old. She was a retired teacher from my school district, so her students she taught in homeschool pretty much had the same curriculum that regular high school did. I was thinking that I would need a letter from her, but since she has passed away (this was about 1 yr ago in 2010) I cannot get that from her even though I do have the transcripts signed by her before she died. How do I send my transcript out since they are not coming from an actual school in a regular envelope? I contacted admissions & they told me homeschool students have the same requirement as everyone else & that If I applied as a freshman even with the deadline passed they would still try to give me a decison in time before school starts. I dont know what that means really, I dont know if that means no or yes or if that I would have a chance applying as a freshman after the deadline. Do transfers get offered scholarships? I was just wondering even though it might be too late. I dont want them to think that my transcript is fake or anything because it isnt, it looks like an official normal transcript on waterproof type paper. Times running out & I dont know what to do please help & thanks for looking.
