How would they make it harder?

I got Dale Mabry Afternoons with a 3.81 GPA. Did did anyone else get DM Afternoons?

I promise! Don't get discouraged and think that this means that it will be harder and harder to get in. Like I mentioned before, gpa or point cut offs change all the time. They go up and down. I think fall 2014 or 2015 had a much higher gpa cut off than the following year. The program I was in previous had a point system and it went down almost by 10 points the semester I applied.

Those who are alternates have such a good shot at earning a spot. Not only do people choose other schools, but people don't turn in their paperwork before the deadline or don't show up to orientation. Another --which is a surprise-- is their background checks come back and make them ineligible to proceed into the program.

I know this is easy for me to say all this as I was accepted, but I have had my fair share of rejection and understand the disappointment. I also don't want to give anyone false hope, but want to stress that this is not and end all for you.

Hey UCFAshley,

Thank you for the kind words. I for one am not losing hope. Anyything is still possible afterall. and if isn't meant to happen this semester so be it. I know a few of us still aren't giving up. We may just have to apply another semester and try to get our GPA up if possible. And you are right this is a high group and with cutoff GPAs fluctuating so much, I know we'll get a chance.

Good luck in the program to you and everyone else! :)

Just dropped off my acceptance confirmation this morning, and it was marked as received in 'my documents' this afternoon. In case anyone is mailing their items in again, you can check there to confirm.

Did everyone receive an email even if it's a rejection? I have not received any emails as of today.

You should've received an email

I haven't gotten an email or a letter and I can't get in contact with the school.. all of my documents were received. I am so confused.

I checked both emails, spam folders, everything. Does anyone know how I can get in contact with anyone who will know what is going on? I have only gotten answering machines.. I am freaking out
