I am an undergraduate student at UCF right now and will soon be graduating with my degree in Psychology. I am applying to UF's Accelerated BSN program for Fall 2012.
My first year of college was brutal! My first semester I made 4 Cs and 1 D. My second semester I made 2 Cs and 3 Fs. I had to retake the 3 classes I failed over the summer and I made 3 Cs. So... it has completely ruined my GPA. It seems like no matter how many As I make it barely brings it up.
But, thankfully UF only considers your most RECENT 60 credit hours towards your GPA. This is so great because my overall GPA is only a 2.6, but by the time I'm done taking classes my most recent 60 credit hours GPA will be around a 3.7-3.8.
Is anyone else suffering from a year of bad grades like me?
I wish every other school only considered your most recent 60 credit hours. UF seems like my only real hope to be accepted, but at the same time it's UF... not the easiest school to get into.
i hope a lot of people who got into other schools accepted their offers, because if unf's acceptance rate is only 4%, i can't imagine what uf's is.
i realized i never posted my stats.. overall GPA is 3.88... GRE is 155,156. i think my upper division is 3.77, but not sure bc there is an internship credit in there, and i calculated it myself.
I live in Gainesville---No letter today.. possibly/hopefully tomorrow? Good Luck everyone! I hate having mini heart attacks every time I check the mail!
I live in Gainesville too and didn't get anything. If the letters didn't go out until today like the office said I am going to assume Monday or Tuesday for Floridians... Hopefully this will ease my stress tomorrow at the mailbox, but probably not! :)
