Wow, man. Congrats! Awaiting *hopefully* a similar package.

Did your status go into comparative review, or just from initial review into accepted. Also do you mind sharing your scores?

I'm surprised you even applied to UF with those numbers! You had to know you were going to get big scholarship offers from T14s and likely an acceptance to at least one of HYS. What is your top choice?

I had a bit of a unique situation on my application so there was some doubt but on numbers alone you're right. Also UF has the #3 tax law program so I figured it was a solid safety

My application was under initial review for a week or two, but now it says it's on hold. Anyone else get that? I'm so disappointed, and honestly a little surprised - my numbers are above both 75ths (4.0, 165). I was really aiming for an acceptance and a good scholarship offer.

No, sane here, both numbers above the 75ths. No idea why, but we should probably just be patient :)

Same thing here, I wouldn't worry yet though. Looking at last year's thread, this was the case for a lot of folks with strong stats who got accepted not long after. Stay positive!

Just checked (again) today. The paragraph is on the status checker about how it's under comparative review and the status is Hold.

App Completed on 10/26.

1L at UF law here. It is the standard to be put on hold before an acceptance. All of you are extremely likely to get offered substantial scholarships. Feel free to ask me any questions about UF Law!

Do professors make you stand when you speak in class?

Any way UF sends a denial in the mail?

Hi all, any insight as to how UF issues decisions? (i.e. email/snail mail) My status checker just went to "decision reached; notice issued".

Same as my status checker, let's see what happens within the next few days. Check previous threads to see what the patterns were.

Got my decision this cycle via status checker and then received a package (with a super cool UF Law thermos, note pad and scholarship offer) a few days later.

Hi, all!

Another current 1L here. Feel free to ask me any questions throughout this process! I'll try to help as much as I can :)

Also, congrats to everyone who has been accepted so far! :D
