I recieved an AA form a state community college. If you really want to go here anyone can get in with an AA and a GPA above a 2.9.

It's not too hard to get into the University, but do well on SATs and GPA (above 1400 and 3.9) to get into the Honors Program. Extracurriculars aren't really considered if your numbers are high, but if they are low than you may consider looking elsewhere.

Get good grades and thats that.

Have strong extracurriculars, grades and essays come second. Don't be modest, even if you only played soccer, or key club, or whatever for just a semester, let them know.

SAT's and GPAs of people that I know for 2006:
1200 & 4.7, 1270 & 4.6, 1280 & 4.3, 1360 & 4.6,
SAT and GPA of rejected:
1270 & 4.4, quite a few people in the top 10% of my class
the usual pointless extracuric. activities that everyone hates naturally do help. I did guitar, football league, Key Club
also helps being a visible minority.

Excelent SAT I and SAT II. IB and AP helps. A high GPA.
Personly: SAT I : 1430 SAT II Chemistry: 790 SAT II Physics:740
GPA: 5.3

I applied to University of Florida on a whim. My father asked me to do the application just to see if I could get in because he really really liked the idea of a free education. I had sent in my scores from the first time I took the SAT and I wrote the essay for application an hour before it was due (I love online applications.) I read over it recently and I had like three grammatical errors and frankly it was horrible. But I got in... I'm pretty sure it had a lot to do with my high SAT score which got me into the Honors college at UF...I don't think my essay helped me out at all... and my high school extracurriculars had gone from a four sport athlete in my first two years to a zero sport athlete as a senior due to injuries. (something I didn't specify in my application so I just looked like a total slacker)
I had a pretty decent GPA, a high SAT score, zero sports, zero reported community service hours, zero outstanding resume components so I'm pretty sure the only reason I got in was that my grades and SAT scores would raise their university statistics (another example of how this university doesn't care about the individual student but rather just about the student as a statistic.)

I took the SAT's twice and had 3 letters of recommendation from high school teachers. I did over 200 hours of community service and went to the university and met with admissions. Keep in mind though, I was accepted in Summer 1997, standard are much more difficult now. I would highly recommend looking at different clubs the college offers and introducing yourself and hopefully get a letter of recommendation from an active club chair to give to an admissions officer

My freshman year in H.S. was a disaster--2.0 at best. Well the next three years I busted my ass, joined JROTC, Sea Cadets, and community service. Also I was on the track team, basketball team, and cross country. I took the harder classes my Junior and Senior years, with College English at the local C.C. on Wednesday nights for college credit. I really put some time in my essays, and found my favorite teacher and begged him to write me the best possible rec. letter possible. Then I went early decision(Oct. 1st)and checked off that I wanted to start in Summer Term B. Then I prayed. UF AVG SAT is 1300 and 3.9 GPA, with 25,000 apps. and 6500 ultimately get in. Well, I made it with a 1100 SAT, and 3.1 GPA---It just goes to show that they do want a diverse campus, and not just bookworms.
