ah. cs is also offered through clas and counts for pace
ew clas
what’s wrong with clas? the comp sci major is almost the exact same
nothing
he has his eccentricities and this happens to be one of them
average cs major looking down on liberal arts
exactly
grr liberal arts 🤓
stem and business rule 

maybe uf isnt a good choice 4 u bc im pretty sure MOST people are in clas 😭
and willing to bet a good $1 that at least 70% of uf are non-engineering/non-business
omg and clas is probably mostly stem too... bc of the pre-meds going in for like . bio and chem .
im kidding bro
is it not obvious that its a joke
or am i that stupid
I think most people are in warrington
they have like 2k ish more than CALS
CALS offers the most majors though
Wait no
I just misspelled the acronym
💀
CLAS reports 12.5k, warrington 8k, CALS 6k
clas dominates
CJC solos all
idk maybe its bc i didnt giggle at it
mass communication queens in there 💗
signing up for graduation in orlando
if you are a homeschooled florida resident i highly reccomend it
recommend*
thank you wiggle
i never said how much I appreciate your grammar hints
it's very helpful
erm actually that’s not a major offered
there’s a mass comms masters tho
i meant the minor
oh sure
i feel like everyone and their mother has a mass comm minor there
😍🥰
I don’t think I’ve met a mass comms minor yet
but why would cjc students get that
so it makes sense I guess
they dont exist 
I had a plant science advisor telling me to take 8:30 am classes even though I lived off campus so I figured out I could change the classes through the next day so I went in and changed it up after the meeting.
Said advisor also said Disney didn’t recruit many engineers.
I saw her at open house in the fall and she recognized me and she asked how I’d been doing and if I’d gotten to do any internships.
Imagine the smile I had to smother/school when I told her I in fact had interned with Walt Disney Imagineering that past summer.
…tbh this
Oh my gosh yes get it done early
UF decision results

accepted!!!
790076024653873162
cacheck

so good
jesus christ how did the majority of kids get accepted
roommate
a plurality, not a majority
thank u thank u
Good point
But
Selection bias goes hardstyle here
There is no way 44% of kids got accepted - even out of A2Cers
28% deferred my ass
its not an overall guess... just meant to survey how many people here (that voted) got in 
AS YOU SHOULD!!!! You proved her wrong
Wow that’s bad though
I’m grateful that my preview was better
Our issue with Preview was (1) the Preview advisor didn't know how to register departmentally controlled courses and (2) courses/sections in plan A, plan B and plan C all had 0 seats available. In retrospect, should have picked a later Preview day, when advisors know what to do.
so i got into uf and honors and i am planning on going to the engineering day in march
is there any reason i should go to one of the honors campus tours?
i am still waiting on other schools
if you are already planning to visit UF, why not?
if you are not coming to GNV, then attend the Honors virtual session
last yr, we didn't go to any of the admitted student events (Floriday Day, GEE-day, Honors). Didn't miss much
we attended several virtual sessions
sounds good, do you know anything about the honors makerspace
it seemed interesting but there is no info on it
hmm, do you know if it would be funky to ask
its just a curiosity thing
Late to this but good game
i'll ask. but you can see makerspace from outside of HV2. It's in the west end of HV2
personally, unless ur heavily considering other schools (ucf vs uf is my dilemma) then u could honestly go in blind on orientation day and be cool 
its just a neat thing, im still waiting on my other slightly higher schools
its just going to help me compare
same here !! also an mit wannabe from fl
thats fair, but i really dont think uf can be compared to oos schools (especially small priv ones like mit) if that makes sense
might be a horrific take on my part
go to ucf and reject uf's offer so i can get in rd
🥺
i fear thats not how it works
Why would u go ucf over uf
i know... a man can dream
hoping this isnt sarcastic, but i really like the location and the proximity of opportunities for cs
Dude trust me don’t go to ucf over uf
now that ive done more research, i'm heavily leaning toward uf, but ucf is nice
Deadass no one’s gonna know wtf ucf is other than the metro Orlando area and Florida
internships tho...
If u got hopes of making it out of Florida and work in a top tech company like in the bay area or in nyc, going to ucf gonna restrict that
UNLESS
internships mean more than school name when ur tryna get a job
You are beyond cracked and can get onto the ucf competitive team
for coding
Those mfs have offers from like jump trading and other quant firms
yeah dw guys i know all that... lol
just weighing my options and seeing what happens in march
Did u get into both?
yep! both honors colleges
W
asked my daughter who lives in HV2. No equipments in makerspace yet
Congrats!
poggers
can we do this uncommitted??
You’ll probably end up getting a roomie through the IG page
Yeah
there's no uf site for it? 
imo, it's not really advantageous to pair a roommate in Feb, when most didn't commit to UF. I suggest you wait till you are committed to UF in March/April.
- If you find a pair but go to a different school, it's a disservice to the other student.
- you are likely to find a roommate similar to you (waiting for other school decisions)
they made me fill out a whole profile
oh yeah I am NOT looking right now for a roommate, I just wanted to be nosy and lurk the site tbh 💜
yes
btw
dm me your screen name pls
i wanna add you :3
There is but people don’t really use it to pair with roommates
am I cooked roommate wise if I have literally no social media presence
just random match
ive done it twice now and both times went swell
the people who try to find a roommate on instagram are scary tbh
cooked in general
ppl are shallow nowadays from my experience they think u r a serial killer or something if u dont have a social media presence at all
no if u post to the Instagram pages
u can put as many photos and stuff
start grinding that snapscore lil bro 🙏
wtf
ngmi if u dont have it
nobody I know does
even the ppl without any social media have snap
well nobody I know uses it as much as they use ig
💀
idk why but ppl act like you killed their dog if u dont have a snap account so i need to make one at some point
using snap makes me feel like a middle schooler again
i use it occasionally but like
not daily
insta gets the job done only bops use snap
who wanrs to room at ucf!!!!
fsu Thursday
send me some Seminole aura
so I get in.
if you end up living on the 2nd floor of the apollo community i can show you how to spiderman climb up and through the window so you dont have to take the stairs
i pick my housing thursday morning
id rather be homeless
ngl i think the most based discussion happens on twitter
thankfully admissions is thursday afternoon
like my instagram feed is actually just slop my twitter feed makes me laugh
why
On a thursday feels devious
because if i get fucked over in housing ill need to make a few phone calls begging and pleading
we have like a 14% AR for out of state students but you got dis
yikes
y do random state schools have 0% OOS AR like who do u think u are
OOS cope
i respect UT because even though their OOS AR is cooked somehow they're still T30 despite 75% of their class being autoadmits from cooked schools that can barely do a derivative or complete the square
i think they think theyre state schools
which yknow have an intrinsic interest in educating people within the state that the school is located
nah this weird entitlement that u have no obligation to educate ppl from other states is weird as fuck to me
universities should be admitting people purely on meritocracy
we dont have a unitary system of government?
taxpayer money goes to our state schools. i think it’s fair to prioritize in state kids at least a little provided that they are decently comparable to oos
by virtue of how the united states was chartered each state has a relatively high degree of control over its own affairs outside of what is explicitly enumerated to the federal government
i do not believe in auto admit for any reason tbh
that includes education
even chatgpt knew
if it's like a goated university i would respect it but florida state has no business doing that shit
chatgpt said id get rejected LMAO
:3
bro got that r/chanceme doom mindset on my ass
like ucla and the berk dont do that shit they're actually goats
Snap is so garbage 😭
no its best suited for schools in FSU's position
these schools rely on out of state students to subsidize university operations, and are able to demand a high price from oos'ers due to their perceived prestige
hence their interest in admitting oos students
My kid found her roommate (that she will live with again next yr) via UF housing portal in April, last yr.
Insta is not a must
Your parents can also find other parents looking for their daughters roommate. I saw many moms matching their kids in FB
just make sure your mom isnt delulu, thats what one of my summer roommates moms did and he is NOT having a good time
But again, it's too early to contemplate these things, where you didn't even commit to UF.
neither am i, because i share a wall with their room and oh boy does his roommate like to scream a lot
my father will be of no help
but good to know the portal is a safe bet!
im working with the mindset that ill get rejected everywhere else. only consdering my current acceptances for now seems smart i think!
GL with other decisions. You got this!
who’s worse in guessing if you’ll get in. high schoolers in chanceme or generative AI? 🔥🔥
high schoolers are worse
generative AI always said defer
you heard it here first. ChatGPT knows what decision AOs will give you 🔥🔥
i don't think aos know what decision you'll get either
most schools probably use an algorithm nowadays
definitely publics because of the volume of applicants they get
UNC and UT have already completely automated their admissions processes
💀
I don't know about AO. But I am 100% convinced that many companies use AI to determine which internship applicants make the 1st cut.
I doubt HR staff has the time to review thousands of applications for 1 position.
Completely automated? Highly doubt that
UT's process was made completely public in 2014 and the only human part was essay/ec review
the final decision is made by plotting applicants onto a matrix with ones in certain cells getting in
I’m always believed this is just a universally accepted fact. The reason why resumes have to be a certain format with certain words is to get through the automation
iirc there was an article stating they've now switched to using AI for this
true. There are paid AI services that will customize your resume/cover letter based on the job description. Crazy stuff!
So point proven about the not completely automated. Would genuinely want to read it if you can link the process
that doesn't sound like "completely automated"
academic index is automatically calculated
personal achievement index was human scored back then but i read an article stating they use AI to review this now but that might've just been UNC idk
ofc, no human will add up scores.
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is using AI to automatically score the writing quality of application essays, The Daily Tar Heel reported on Monday. According to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, it uses artificial intelligence tools to evaluate the grammar and writing style of essays, which are used to judge admission to [...
ok it's not published whether UT uses it or not for the PAI
isn't "liason" in your screenshot = human?
this is pretty messed up ngl
they 100% have the funds to pay enough people
just checked and yea
for there to be a human looking at each app
so ig it isn't automated but computerized
tbh if it's just calculations it makes sense to have a computer do it instead of people
but it basically has the same effect because they dont review applications individually aside from the PAI review
the liaison basically just determines the cutoffs
idk how they account for context
apparently the PAI does
but like for example if you had a huge drop in ur gpa for 1 semester due to some unfortunate event ur AI is still going to be ultra cooked regardless of how much of a boost they give to ur PAI
If you think from AO's perspective, they will not use AI to make all the decisions. They are risking their own existence.
Is there another chat for FSU RD somewhere?
Just read a nice tip regarding dorm room selection.
Most incoming students will end up choosing a double room during May room selection period.
Unfortunately, double rooms with 2 available beds can be taken by a single (who is not paired). It's practically impossible to force a single to be limited to a double room with only 1 bed available.
Once the double room with 2 available beds is taken by a single, this double room will only have 1 available bed, which means paired students cannot select it. This was a big issue last year. Practically, on Day 2, there were practically no double room with 2 beds available. So all the pairs had to split up and pick 2 different rooms.
A mom suggested, if one wants a good double room, it may be strategically better to not to pair. You will have more room selection options but you risk not knowing who the roommate is.
For admitted honors student, a mom explained what the admitted Honors student event was like:
"we went on the admitted honor student tour Monday. It was very informative. The first part was an honors presentation, then we went on a general 90 minute campus tour and then we got to see honors village. We didn’t get to see the hv dorm rooms, but we got to see the community areas. My daughter is really glad she went and it definitely is helping with her decision."
we have #1268298121075622026
but this chat has been used as an umbrella to discuss all florida schools so the fsu thread is lowkey dead
fsu flop school
there's no t
Ayyyy congrats!
Never had it and never needed it
And whose taxes pay for it
Hello 10th amendment
YEAH, and it SUCKS
However I have been told theme parks don’t but DISNEY BEGS TO DIFFER
Liaison is spelled wrong
Also, if you’ve ever taken a UF tour in at least the past two years, that tour probably got scheduled by a lovely lady in the Welcome Center named Melissa! Today was her last day since she’s moving up to Boston to take a new awesome role at Brandeis but we’re gonna miss her 🥲
I can confirm most doubles had one annoying single in them and it was impossible to get “good” dorms because of it
hi so i just got an admissions letter from uf saying i got accepted but i didnt even apply?? im so confused
they have the right address and everything
does anyone know why or has this happened to anyone else?
did you also receive an email?
nope i just checked
just the physical letter, folder, and flag thing
perhaps UF sent the snail mail to a wrong address
yeahh thats what i was thinking too but it has my full name
if you didn't apply to UF, ignore this mail
alrightt thanks
do you manually select your room as a freshman?
we get random assignment based on building choice
at uf, students select their rooms. it's NOT assigned
manual selection for returning students
interesting
there's no random pairing done by UF
it's like a course registration. good sections/rooms get taken 1st by students with early appointment
we have a lottery for first couple days that housing is open, then slots are assigned as they come in
i didn’t know my fall dorm until like 6 weeks before we started
Y’all think the honors dorms will be all filled up before late march?
I haven’t decided if I want to go to UF yet but don’t wanna risk not getting housing 😭
i dont even think they open housing until march
i lied! room selection opens in may
@lofty raptor u get nm finalist?
nvm just saw
yea
i havent even done the housing app yet lol
i was just looking at it rn
do it rn bro
they opened roommate choices
:F:
as long as you made the $25 deposit, you can defer your decision
So I don’t have to pay like $250 to cancel the housing contract or something?
huh? $25 deposit and $250 cancellation penalty are not related.
when you make $25 deposit determines your room selection time
What are considered good sections rooms ?
For HV, rooms with courtyard view was in high demand
Yeah
It really depends on the student
For instance I need my me time so I’m in a studio apartment
Because I actually have everything I need pretty close and I can cook my own stuff on my own time
they SHOULD?
yes ik
gonna call and see if i can get a benaquisto extension
they said "call back in an hour lmao you so stupid short"
What’s that? Like a deadline extension?
so
the national merit full ride
has to be started in the fall immediately passing your graduation
or you lose it
im gonna try to take a gap year
why are you taking a gap year?
...that's it? 😭
yes
thats it
nothing more
nothing less
that is all
i mean if you have some big plans for the gap year, that'd be... better?
during the gap year i will work full time at a government agency or non profit
40 hours a week
thats my big plan
oh so you have the job?
might want to have a backup plan 
backup plan is to sit on couch and watch netflix all year
maybe i can watch half of one piece by the end of the year!
definitely discuss that plan w ur mom bc my dad would put me through the wall if I took a gap year to do nothing
i mean
that was my moms plan
not mine

she didnt say netflix per say
she said like
get a job
do some projects
etc
but like
yeah
...yeah so that wasn't her plan then!
I just imagine she'd be quite displeased if you didn't get a job and ended up doing literally nothing for a year
bro
if i do that
i will have more then 11 credits
and i will be a transfer
and not a freshman
Not always
Would a government agency hire a 14 year old?
I do not get ur humor 💔
maybe idk
Unlikely due to labor laws
pshh labor laws schmabor laws ykwim
i do believe theres a difference between 14/15 and 16/17 but i couldnt tell you what it is. just from personal experience in my internship when i was in hs
yes ik
would they hire a 15 year old
the only way that's happened (for me at least) is bc they had a program that aimed to give high school students summer internships... not sure how that'd work for a full-time position that he'd be quitting in a year
if you just want money, just work at chick-fil-a or some other place that teenagers usually work at 
i just dont know the rules on age tbh. like someone on my team was basically a psuedo intern but i think he was a year or two younger so he wasnt on payroll and technically only "shadowed"? i didnt really ask more questions tbh
oh that's kinda crazy 😭
I was on payroll and everything but my dad had to sign some stuff
at 14? idk maybe my place wasnt experienced with that stuff, we were the first non college intern group so it was a bit messy
the program that I was in had existed for like . years . so yeah it was cool
also it was with a nonprofit that works closely with the government so I imagine that made things less annoying with getting that approved
@lofty raptor u could try to work corporate for Publix, maybe intern idk
My bf did that but I think it’s difficult
thats W
yeahhh so maybe passion project is the way to go
Passion projects are lowkey…
Idk depends on the project
it's better than doing NOTHING for a year 😭
also in this case it might not be something to slap on a resume, just do something to keep ur mind active
True
honestly
if i did that
i would just enroll full time at Florida Poly
its like 10 minutes away from uf HQ
*publix HQ
so i just got a summer job as a tutor for $25/hour :3
and fall
and spring
its not full time but its something
Why? The internship would be fully remote
You’re cs right?
florida poly looks cool as hell
yes but i wanna stay in person
also i can get $25/hour in person 40 min away from me
In person isn’t an option
like
If you were to intern for public
it's so ugly
It’s not
y+o*infinity=yooooooooooooooooo(cut off due to rate limits)
sorry to be a hater but my brother went there
Imagine if the entire campus smelled like marston @hazy shuttle
whats marston
one of UF’s main libraries
the library
do not make me imagine that scent while im AWAY from marston
lib west supremacy forever
wrong
what does marston smell like...
like comp sci students
The only other acceptable library is smathers
marston my goat
ahh yes the glory of comp sci stink
It’s literally only the one building
The campus is SMALL
yes thats what i mean
when my brother went there, they had a boy girl ratio of 98:2
Sorry I’m a Florida poly hater
it LOOKS like something i can't say here
Not even exaggerating
bro
they didnt give me a full ride grr (even uf will give me full ride if i get in bruh)
YEAH and they were trying to recruit me like hell noooo
i cant even say another campus is ugly like i didnt get an email theres MORE construction around reitz throughout the semester
oh ok I lied it was 87:13 in 2017 whatever I’m a liar

grr go into the liar chamber of cs smelly people!
My brother didn’t love it
idk fl poly is definitely built for a specific type of person
i know 0 about florida poly as i was never interested, i just thought the building on the water was cool
it’s not even on the water rlly, there are artificial little moats around it
ok that’s the last bad thing I’ll say about it
wow the enrollment is like, REALLY small
like it looks like a small campus but didnt expect that small
that's still terrible
😔 cant have anything cool in florida
I think my fave campus in Florida is flagler’s
I'm imagining the antique smell of it too
ok so i only saw chat midway and i didn’t have to scroll up to know yall were talking about poly
i considered applying but naaah
antique is a nice way to put it
flagers is genuinely so cool inside
bro i cant find any good publix internships
Every time you breathe in while in marston you get a whiff of the many tears and other bodily fluids (sweat) of the thousands of cs and engineering students before you 🧘♀️
Yeah my bf didn’t apply online
where did he apply
he had connections (regional guy went to his church) so he sent him a letter
Like physically
This is shady but my bf didn’t know the guy
marston 5th floor past 12am is a different feeling
But he had at one time been to his church and my bf’s mom works at the church so she got access to his home address
you could email
your network is your net worth
ill ask my ADM if he knows a guy
adm?
SAILFISH NATIONNN
bruh
what's may 1st
gkco
you mean march? me
aight 🔥
are you arriving the day before
im staying at a hotel named after @native oak (https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/mcotu-the-celeste-hotel-orlando-a-tribute-portfolio-hotel/overview/)
you will never know who i am
and you will know who i am by the extreme shortness
btw you would be in towers right
claire or towers
(my irl name is not Celeste haha. But the attribution is appreciated 😊)
wdym ur names not celeste... everyone uses their real names on discord
cola and celeste 😇
when will fin aid come out
on everybodys soul but mine thats my real name !
youre
you're
Bro
did that hurt ur soul
has anyone taken math, science courses via FLVS? can I DM?
i took ap calc on flvs ! feel free to dm :)
What time FSU RD come out today?
@lofty raptor congrats!!!
ok
its not that big
if anything getting into FSU is bad
LMAOOO
💔
did u apply to fsu?
also happy valentine’s day guysssss
Brah
U got a full ride 😭
FSUs a really good school don’t stress
If it makes u feel better my roommate got deferred fsu but got in during regular decisions w honors
So things may be looking up for u
By the way? is the current finaical aid offer the whole thing?
like I only got 6,000 a year I can't afford that
or are other htins coming
also it says i have a 0 dollar loan options
like what does that mean?
also are there no more scholarships cuz if so then i'm not going
This is so funny
For UF? Yes, that’s the full merit based aid
But need based aid will come out later
ok so I'm waiting for need based aid
if i get all that the student aid index says I could afford it but if not my 6,000 distinguished scholar is not enough bro
rollins college 🙏
I just wanna know why is my loan options 0 does that mean anyting? like I havent applied for any or
wait i'm not gonna get any need based aid my sai is 20,000
well not gonna go then that 47,000 a year looks quite difficult
i would get a full ride to UF as well
Anyone who puts an 8:30am meeting on a Friday is an idiot
clock it
that scholarship is for OOS. are you OOS?
Ohhh u have bf?
I thought they gave u money on top of bright futures/prepaid
benaquisto
thats on top
yes
I can't afford this damn school
I'm kinda screwed scholarship wise anyway
In general, state university doesn't offer much need based aid to oos.
yeah think i'm just gonna go to my state school at this point, if UF isn't giving me aid then all the other oos schools prob won't either
unless I mirically get into an Ivy
yeah fr, it should be earlier
7:30 but tbh 6:30 is better
Uf rarely gives aid to oos from what I’ve heard
They rarely give aid whatsoever bc oos cost compared to comparable public’s oos cost is rather affordable
yep not fo r me. I call it a dub I even got in tho
Yeah that’s huge, congrats!
big dub
Wrong way, quack
Half of the people were in bathrobes or various states of active wear and the other half were in business comfy
(and it’s me and the rest are a bunch of people 20 years older than me)
yeah you’re right, 8:45 sounds reasonable
I had to miss my discussion class today because the parking closest to it was full and
uf students are so intelligent!
Oooof that parking job hurts my soul
which garage is this??
5
I don’t have a student parking permit so my options are pretty limited when I’m running late
question
what percentage of in state students at UF get bright futures
im honestly gonna assume 100% lmao
but just wondering if any dont
if you google it, its the first answer that pops up
Not if they don't fill out their app
But most get it
lol how many kids forget to fill out BF?
More than 0
also possible that a FL kid graduated from an oos prep/boarding school. he is not eligible for BF.
my counselor had to BEG people to fill out BF 😭
semi unrelated but its honestly really unfortunate how many high schools dont drill bright futures in heavy, ive talked to people about to graduate and when i ask them if theyre on bf they either look at me confused or just say idk
worse is the ones who go "i don't need bf" ... like don't pmo
My private one did because we had to have 100 service hours anyway to graduate
my high school was pretty good at drilling in bf and how to apply to college
but tbh i was in my summer before senior year and i had like 6 service hours, i was only saved by the change allowing work hours
did anyone have trouble logging in to pay for the initial housing deposit
what error message did you get?
i put in my portal log info and it said the password was incorrect so i did the obtain new password and then i just never got an email
if you are incoming freshman, ufl email doesn't work for housing portal. You need to use the email you applied to UF.
that’s what i used
wdym
if the email you applied with didn't work, try logging in using uf email.
92% is crazy
8% of students
i would think maybe 1% or 2%
but 8% of kids
is crazy
Do we know when rd comes out yet
3/14
Sweet
Tbh Florida and Purdue are the only oos schools I can afford now 💀
Hopefully I get in
finished my ea sankey
im hoping you didnt finish the usf application by choice bc their app is so insanely easy
"did you go to jail?"
"no"
"ACCEPTED!"
they literally ask you to not submit the common app essay lmao
how to make a snakey
i just need to send my SAT
i just photoshopped the logos on after
I NEED IT TO BE SCHOLARS DAY RAHHHH
hey guys
hey mov
so
i found out how to find you at the hotel
its just a game of Find The Furry
2 weeks = UCF SCHOLARS DAY 😍
2 weeks after that = WE GET INTO UF 😍
my counselor was SO ANNOYING about that... i told her this but she insisted that everyone applying should write an essay which made a lot of people at our school not apply 💀
🦊
pin the metaphorical tail on the bipedal talking donkey
bruh
that is one
batch with an I (respectfully)
…I might be starting a UCF grad school app haha
At Rosen??
don't say that she's still my icon...
noo aim for harvard grad school
you need to go to the lil mexican place at ucf its so good
almost made me rescind my uf application
Harvard doesn't offer a Themed Entertainment Masters lol
oh
maybe you can go there
themed entertainment sounds like clown tbh
circus?
themed entertainment with a minor in clowning and a pre-circus track. future career paths (post grad school): clown.
mov
yes
nvm
Funny enough one of the girls in my Traditions (Disney orientation) class was from Harvard
see guys its not about where you go it's what you make of it!
ynw
She was doing like 10 years aheadpanning stuff
?
themed entertainment masters
i looked it up
every result was UCF
yeah go UCF celeste 😭
There's three masters programs that are actually respected
SCAD is very much blue sky theoretical creative but expensive as heck
UF’s is more fabrication/physical production
And UCF’s is that creative management and is supported by Universal Creative
A solid chunk of the Millennials in my department at Universal were masters students or grads of the program
Also for our accounting folk: y’all get your own career fair
got my ERAU english placement back
COM122 (college level freshman composition)
highest i can get as a native speaker
this is my snakey but no logos
since its a bunch of schools
"match appily"...?
also why 24 safeties
I can't even name 24 schools i want to go to
what happened to the other match schools
?
wym
here
i wish i could put exact items into snakey
it's SANKEY
yea its so goated that i dont bother going to the all majors career fairs
i just dont question it at this point
The business school one didn't know what to do with me except for one guy from Merrill Lynch that I talked to about a fabricator we had both signed NDAs to visit lol
we have a just business one too but ive had scheduling conflicts (slept in) both semesters now
I feel that so much with the scheduling conflicts
all of my classes happen to be in the afternoon
which is primetime for events like that
That genuinely sounds like such a cool masters
24 safeties? ur safe bro
i applied to 2 and felt like i did too many 
Haha. My kid applied to 300+ internships. It's brutal.
This sounds about right
yeah thats normal
no
snake like designes
i call it snakey
its cuter
snakey > sankey

FSU or UCF - Data Science Major
Hello. Currently I am waiting on UF for regular decision, but need to make a second choice option.
My major Data Science at FSU is a masters degree only, so I would have to take one of the pathways to get there and UCF it is a bachelors program.
My real problem here is do I go to a school which is more prestigous overall, or go to UCF where I got 14k scholarship and they have my major.
Any answers help. Thanks.
data science is typically a masters program, we’re starting to see a few universities offer a bachelors in it now though
majors like math, stats, and CS are common pathways to a graduate program in data science
you’ll certainly be more knowledgeable on data science than i am, so my question is if a bachelors degree in DS would mean you don’t need to get the masters in it?
or do you do masters either way
For FSU: These are the major pathways they have on their website.
- Computer Science
- Computer Programming and applications
- Scientific Computing
- Statistics
Right now I am signed up for stats at FSU, but want to do one of the middle ones but wasnt on Common App
I am planning on doing masters either way.
i see
in that case i think the undergraduate major isn’t too important and i’d focus on cost… is the UCF scholarship 14k per year or 14k total
Its 14k total. I have BF and florida prepaid, so cost is not the biggest worry to me overall
hmm
i think i would lean FSU here if the campus environment is your style
i personally preferred it to UCF as it’s a lot more compact, almost half as many students, and more “quintessential college experience” if you wanna call it that
but i would for sure look into program strength at each school, courses available, etc
Yeah I see that. Hopefully I get into UF that I dont have to make this decision but thank you for your help.
yeah, UF is the best of both worlds for you definitely
ehh
its not that ba
besides
even if I get into UF my mom is still pushing me to go to UCF
Tell her that ucf has drugs
ya
Hey
I applied rd to uf
everywhere has drugs
Ooh fun
I am currently reconsidering my app to uf
Wdym
I feel like its good for engineering and its fun but also theres huzz everywhere bc its florida which is a huge plus but its florida and trump is in office so anything that’s being tried on the federal level is going to actually happen in florida
R u a citizen
Yes
I was wondering if any uf students could shed light on the impact of the political floridian climate on education
ok
in terms of getting a job esp for engineering you'll be fine. UF isn't going to lose ABET accreditation any time soon (at least not due to the political climate I don't think). You might have less resources as a minority as regards gender or if you're disabled, but that's true across Florida and UF's education is still pretty highly ranked
a lot
I don’t think it’s affected my education
Florida leans right of course but I’ve found that most students lean left because it is of course a university
if you’re worried about that
I can’t think of a way politics have affected my life as a student so far
"there's huzz everywhere" and "engineering major" are definitely conflicting interests
you have nothing to worry about funding wise for engineering programs, its the liberal arts and sciences that are in a more shaky situation
i wouldnt recommend coming to florida if youre trans, but otherwise politics hasnt changed much if anything
they also have boys state there
which im pretty sure has been more well established
lmao my fault for replying so late im digging for smth
did anyone else get this email for the Rosenthal-Levy Scholars Program
i'm a stem major
personally i think florida leans left the right just votes more
I did too also a stem major
Maybe they r desperate
yeah I mean you gotta do a lot of stuff also definitely seems more geared towards jewish people tho
I'm not even close to Jewish 💀
Ik I'm not devoting my life to learning hebrew
yeah I saw that and was like nah
did u apply for all the engineering scholarships?
I'm not engineering
oh mb
oh gotcha
yeah thats fair im in state so makes sense to go
ik, we were there at the same time
yes... is that ok....
idc i was assigned to alachua
i genuinely dgaf
if u were in alachua...
we had 0 spirit loll
i was a nat and a rep
was alachua the scary one
NO WE HAD GENUINELY NO SPIRIT
I have such a bad time remembering bc I was sleep deprived LMAO
we were so lame
lowkey relatable... we weren't as lame but when someone would start a chant they'd get crazy looks 80% of the time
i hated girls state
yall clogged the dining halls
id be trying to go somewhere but then a gaggle of 50 high school girls would very inconveniently block the path
now that i think about it
it really wasnt bad at all compared to the mormon summer camps
there was multiple like 3 day events where they put a ton of mormies in the vacant dorms and did activities all around campus
and i waited all that time just for ur food to be ass... imagine our pain
took fsu off my list with the quickness like 2 days in
its never terrible but its also never michelin star quality
i dont even bother getting breakfast anymore and then suck it up for either lunch or dinner
i dont think theres much that couldve made me enjoy being at fsu during girls state
miserable times
next time just say "excuse me" bc i promise you we don't need to feel more like a spectacle w/ you standing there like this
and the girls are nice
no i was scared they were walking in lines like roman soldiers off to war
with the chants n everything
the only time they couldnt seemingly form lines was in the dining hall...
otherwise yall were very good at it
yeah bc we were getting yelled at 25/8 about spirit or wtv
the dining hall WAS the war
the pizza kinda good… ermm
yo
we were being starved... I think anything would've been good
that one day we got chicken omg
when it was pouring
so good but the fatties at the front of the line took all the sauce
HELP MEEEE
I don't even think I got chicken
I got dole whip a few times but they shut it off bc we aren't students and that just made me hate fsu more
they shut the dole whip machine off way too often
the soft serve machine is even worse in that regard
How does Aleks math placement work at UF? What if I have Clep credit for Calculus?
They’ll probably still have you take it. I had to take it even with AP credit for calculus
Did you have to retake calc ?
it's all explained here: https://registrar.ufl.edu/courses/aleks
if you need any clarification of this article, let me know
Do you get a calculator on ALEKS?
no
calculator is short for calculus

its actually two 3 creds and a 1 cred
so 7 credits
COP 3363 Introduction to C++ for majors
GE Core Social Science3
COP3353 Intro to UNIX
so yeah
6 credits during summer is best
@native oak@topaz stirrup Hope you don't mind me pinging. Do you know how long the UF Appeal Process usually takes for them to review (or is there anyone you could ask about it)?
cs major?
I…have no idea
😭 No problem, yeah that's fair lol. Just thought I'd ask
war is over
We’re almost there 🤣
actually stinky major
No clue
Last year, UF decision day for c/o 2028 was today (Friday, late Feb)
Last yr only had 1 round
Some ppl may disagree but UF moving to 2 rounds EA + RD was the right choice for long term,
90K applications this year is bonkers
This is so crazy!!! It feels like I got my decision YESTERDAY
I still remember you were so excited and relieved on that day in this channel.
I remember this too haha! I was locked onto this channel even in the slow mode and it was a sigh of relief
I remember I was so happy and celebrating with my parents and left everyone waiting here for like 5 minutes 😭😭😭
how could you...
putting family over the a2c discord
just calculated my gpa using UF method i'm ngmi
only allah can save my application atp
im 25th percentile
Hope this closure isn't going to negatively affect campus tour and Preview traffic.
why is this closed???
https://campusclosures.ufl.edu/post/5542 says closed till 8/30/2025. There are tens of constructions undergoing at UF at any given time.
odd
will uf ever be a complete campus 😭
I LITERALLY had the last tour in that liberty pool area before they taped it off
Like they closed it behind my group, total surprise to me
It’s gonna be a pain for preview but eh
That's my concern. I remember taking a break at the pond or passing that area to go to MALA during Preview.
“Disneyland UF will never be finished.”

UF’s construction will end the day after you graduate
Yeah but instead of a new ride it’s a ripped up lawn outside Malachowsky
It’ll end the day YOU graduate, sis
