Many are still waiting. Be patient (hah) and good luck!
There will be no 4th application cycle for me! I'm in!!!!!
Thanks guys!!! 😍
I do, however have a question. In my letter, it has this in bold:
However, please be advised that we are initially extending more offers than there are positions available for nonresidents and will, if necessary, give preference to those applicant who first submit the attached acceptance form and the nonrefundable deposit of $500.
Does this mean literally that if enough OOS's accept and put in $500 ahead of me and I am here waiting for UF, and then don't get into UF, then I'm out?? Even if this happens 2 weeks before the April 15th deadline????
So do I put in a deposit this week??? Then does UF even know I've done that, and then think, oh well, no invite for her??? I don't mind losing $500, heck I'd pay that in application fees next year anyway, but I don't want my intentions to look misconstrued in anyway possible. But I would hate to wait for UF, then find out I'm going to OK and then they say there is no room for you.
I called them today. They said they honored the dealine, but it's a first come, first serve situation.
I am excited about the new parasitology center though....I love parasites (explains my first marriage...) 😀
