rose cosmos

literally straight imposter syndrome

There’s only a limited number per institution, residency under the housing department handles it

#

Nope. Admissions only considers you for pace if you indicated interest in a major eligible for pace

umbral heath

is this true?? 😭

@oblique grotto

That is an over generalization on the front end. There is not a bunch of numbers in a machine or a bunch of balls in a bingo roller. It is true if you indicate a pace major you have a chance.

I’d ‘love’ to know who the “dude” is.

A UF Mechanical Engineering junior (youssefmkamel) just posted in linkedin that he will be interning at Tesla this summer.

#

He's a member of Solar Gators

#

Any engineering major should consider joining this wonderful club.

#

sorry, this server doesn't let me post URLs. but I suppose you can easily find the web address.

hi i applied for housing the day of decisions and i logged in using my APP PORTAL login and then i paid $25 for the gousing application and i gir a priority date of the same day. However i didnt receive any housing agreements yet what does this mean??? i applied housing 3/13 and got a priority date of 3/13.

#

i kno im hella late so it might be cooked i js wanna kno what ig means

#

From what I remember, that housing application fee shouldve been done WAY before now. I could be remembering wrong but you could've done it as early as your application (for me that was... october/nov of my cycle) and it determines your priority

austere fjord
#

Thats from my experience. they very easily could've changed it

#

Did you ever sign something around your application? Before your admittance

#

And what does this look like for you?

#

oh nvm images not allowed

#

I'd call the office. they have very good information. And start looking at apartments asap lol

Spring break might make it weird. All of my experiences have been very nice with them. Same with TAPS lol

burnt chasm
#

i didnt do step 4 or 5 yet i never got an agreement

austere fjord
#

when did you do steps 1-3?

burnt chasm
#

2 days ago

burnt chasm
austere fjord
#

Oh

#

youre cooked

#

steps 1-3 are when your priority is

#

Notice how they imply that you couldve done those before you got your acceptance?

burnt chasm
austere fjord
#

Kids started doing those as early as august when the applications opened

#

Look for apartments

burnt chasm
#

yups its over

obsidian whale

#

its good hopefully i get my no1 choice which doesnt allow housing apps until after you get admitted

Ig I just have shitty luck

I need this luck for that 1 million lottery money

#

How much is pace I wonder

umbral heath
#

are u instate or oos

#

its 3k if ur instate and 15k oos

15k for an online school is crazy

#

Pace is a scam

last bluff
lime cloak
#

did uf do a waitlist last school year? lookin at the 2024-2025 cds and they say no, but looking online i see a lot of people saying they were put on a waitlist

oblique grotto
analog kernel
#

Is it actually random

oblique grotto
umbral heath
#

why would someone be put in PaCE vs getting on campus or waitlist

lime cloak
#

but then again idk

oblique grotto
umbral heath
oblique grotto
umbral heath
#

so they think i have experience taking online classes?

#

that doesnt make sense

oblique grotto
#

That’s just one possible reason. PACE is still an admittance to UF and it’s been an uphill battle to remind students of it because of all the speculation surrounding it. If you have AP credits or other credits you’re carrying in, those count towards the 60

umbral heath
#

also is it really a housing issue or more of a seat capacity issue? UT has a significant on-campus housing shortage but they wont make students take online courses, they will just make them get off campus housing.

oblique grotto
#

But PACE means you were on the “hey we want to admit this person” list but there’s the goal and then the housing feasibility

umbral heath
#

I dont get why they dont just admit me on campus and just not guarantee me housing

lime cloak
oblique grotto
#

I lived off campus all four years

umbral heath
#

yeah but how is it a housing issue if there is multiple options for housing

lime cloak
#

they don't control off-campus housing, and i'd think pace allows them to have a sense of control on being able to manage limited housing with lots of admissions

burnt star
#

pace ain’t it

umbral heath
#

but still i dont understand how UT only has space for 50% of freshmen, so they tell you right off the bat "Housing is not guaranteed" and they still give on-campus admits

#

I think it may be more of a seat capacity issue or something

#

i dont think its just solely housing

#

but regardless, im curious how they choose which applicants recieve PaCE offers

umbral heath
#

yeah ok

lime cloak
#

lol

burnt star
lime cloak
#

tbh i'd understand why someone would do pace if they were instate and didn't value college life too too much. like if uf was just better for their major and academics, and they had like bright futures (which is probably likely for an instate uf admission) and they valued their major and academics over college life then it kinda just makes sense to accept. ofc if someone values college life a lot then it wouldn't work

#

also college life is very vague terminology but i don't have a better way to describe it

umbral heath
#

im confused i applied for business administration yet i got an email from the Hamilton School for Classical and Civic Education congratulating me

oblique grotto
#

sigh
Oh Hamilton. You twerp.

am i allowed to leave uf and go to that school if i get off the waitlist if i sign the contract or am i legally required to stay

I would not sign anything you’re not willing to be legally bound to

A housing contract is

ah okay

I would read any contract you attempt to sign

Because to break it can be pricey

I’m nervous because for honors you have to sign it to get guaranteed housing but I don’t want to give up on my waitlist stuff

Can someone tell me abt how hard/easy it is to get research and internships at UF?

oblique grotto
#

Research - all in the relationships. CURBS is a great organization to get connected with research opportunities.

Internships are all in how you go about it and the field you're aiming for. I wouldn't attribute the internships I got to the career center directly, but the relationships I built by going to events and genuinely engaging helped me learn more about what was out there

#

Go to the career fairs though, and don't sleep on the casual meetup they do at the reitz - the career fair can be long lines but the casual meetup thing (whatever they call it now) was a lot more low stakes and genuine discussion

Stuff that seemed interesting but you're likely not going to find your "dream research group." Maybe you will. Just take any opportunity you can get because it seems like it's all about the learning experience

the uf financial aid portal is very weird

#

depends on when you signed the first housing agreement after you applied in the fall

austere fjord
#

/incoming credits

#

If you're gonna be taking a lot of gen eds, something like Broward, Rawlings, Yulee complex, or the historic district are very good

#

close to dining halls, the gym, and lots of classes

#

and libraries

#

if you know you'll be taking department specific classes already, definitely try to live closer to those. Some might have insane time slots.
Check the schedule of courses through the registrar for that

#

All dorms are fine. All of them are overpriced. I live in Broward, girlfriend lives in Rawlings. both traditional and both very liveable. roommate matters far more

#

Only especially different ones are honors for the price, infinity for the price & distance, and Beatty because you might be on the 13th floor

You don't have housing then. Get an apartment

Oh well then idk why they be waitlisting or rejecting ppl with around 1500

mortal flint
#

i guess sat dont really matter

last bluff
midnight latch
#

it's a competitive state school with over 100,000 applicants and like a near sub 20% acceptance rate

#

not hard to get denied

mortal flint
#

so even if did have 1500 i prob wouldn't have got in anyways

last bluff
#

I studied overseas so I only have like 2-3 days to study for it

mortal flint

but accepted

i feel it unfair ngl

Still they don’t give much aid cuz their tuition is low

mortal flint

#

for oos

last bluff
mortal flint

it all florida college around 30-39k for oos and ga tech and purdue

mortal flint
last bluff
#

Technically 28k but they add 4K for engineering and other stuff

last bluff
#

Coa is higher ofc

mortal flint

last bluff
mortal flint
#

you can apply 20

last bluff
#

Ik but my hs only sends transcripts to 8

mortal flint
#

i dont think that how it works

last bluff
#

And they prob want less workload and talent retention

#

Ik but every college needs transcripts

#

No use applying 12 more if my hs refuses to submit anything to them

mortal flint
#

so all guidence consoulor has to do is in put transcript they dont see how many college u put down

If you have incoming math credit, you may use that as placement into math courses at UF as long as the credit appears on your UF transcript, or you provide proof of credit. However, the ALEKS placement is the best predictor of success in UF MAC courses, so even if you have credit, you are strongly encouraged to take ALEKS. Taking ALEKS will assess your current knowledge base and its fit with the UF curriculum. After taking ALEKS, discuss which math course you should take with an advisor.

#

im not gon take it so ✌️😭

smoky jolt
#

But like, say I take it and I don’t score that well bc I took calc last year 🫩 would they say “ummmmm actually u have to retake calc 1☝️” or would it still be chill?

versed mica

i’m between uf and olin

#

struggling hard to choose ngl

burnt chasm
#

but they might say to retake calc 1

#

not entirely sure

#

im lucky cause my school ends before preview and theyll have my transcripts by then so i dont need it

smoky jolt
#

So I think I won’t take it either

#

They actually already have my finalized transcripts from the schools where I took calc and chem
