I haven't heard from UF either. I know they have rolling admissions, so I guess it all depends on when you submitted and how competitive your application is. I applied late September/early October last cycle and heard in early March (waitlist, eventual rejection.) Since I applied early September this year, I'm expecting to hear sometime in February. Hope you hear something soon as well!
 
The original UF email saying they received your completed app says if you have not heard anything by April that you should contact them.

I just received my acceptance email from FIU!
I'm in the same boat as many of you....no response from UF.

Hi, did you receive an official email/letter from (Graduate Department) or from the Program Director?

Congratulations on your acceptance to FIU. I also got accepted to FIU yesterday after interviewing this past weekend on 28 Jan. Do you know if there is a deposit required? My email from Dr. Rossi did not mention one.
 
Anyone heard anything recently from FGCU? Their interviews were last weekend and this weekend. They're not one of my top choices, but I would've expected to hear some sort of response from them by now. I assume since I haven't yet, then I have been rejected since 2 days is pretty short notice for an interview. Any info or ideas would be appreciated.

The FIU email comes from an automated system with the subject line of FIU in it.

I know some people received acceptances the other day from USF, but has anyone else heard anything from them? I believe we are supposed to receive a response (email or mail?) by today...

Yeah if you didn't receive an email about the interviews you didn't get in. If you want to verify email Melinda Coffey at [email protected] she responds relatively quickly

Same here nothing heard from USF or FGCU... I got an email Dec 29 from FGCU saying competitive for an interview but wasnt invited. I got into FIU so I am doing a happy dance!
 
Declined my interview at FGCU but I'm still waiting to hear from USF.

Just received the same message. Are you going to accept as an alternate or what are your plans?
 
I just got accepted at UCF! Got a call from Samantha right when I was pulling into work at 4. Yes Yes Yes!!!
 
Did anyone else still not here anything? And for those accepted, what were your stats?
 
I got the acceptance from UCF yesterday too! Very relieving because I was so close to paying a 500 deposit for another school. Congratulations Capt, see ya in May!

Sorry that's a little long but I know seeing other people's full stat list helps me! I'm sure you will hear soon & wish you the best in this stressful process!

For those of you who have already been accepted to UF when did PTCAS send off your app & when did UF confirm they received it & were looking through it? Just wondering if that played a bigger priority in selection than I thought or if they simply would have liked to see other things from my app!

They called right? Not email?
 
does anyone know if USF ranks their alternate list?
