Any interview invitations extended from UF yet?
No, I'm from UCF. I saw online that interviews don't begin until January but I wasn't sure if students were beginning to receive those invitations yet or not. Thanks for responding!I haven't heard from anyone yet and I know a bunch of people that applied (including me, but I"m not done with my essays).
Are you from UF?
Has it always been this late? I could have sworn someone I knew got accepted in December last year.
Yeah it's always that late. They might have said they were accepted in December because when UF gives you an interview you are basically accepted to the program (I'm almost sure that they accept something like 97% of the people they interview).
If they got an invite in December for the January interview then I can see why they would say that.
Today, I received my interview for Jan. 14th. So, they have definitely started sending out invitations.

I was referring to official acceptances (which naturally would not occur until after the first interview date), and not interview invitations (essentially "unofficial acceptances" according to some).
HEY FSUJD,
WHEN DID YOU SUBMIT YOUR SUPPLEMENTAL APP? I SENT MINE LIKE 2 WEEKS AGO, AND i HAVENT HEARD FROM THEM YET!
i wouldn't worry then! I completed my application on sept. 30th and just received the invite on nov. 19th. Best of luck to you!
It probably also depends on how you list your campus preferences. FSUJD, was Gainesville your first choice? We're asking you a lot of questions; I think we're all anxious to hear back.
As an out of stater do you guys think it will be worth it for me to apply or are they pretty partial to Florida students?
I'm having technical difficulties with the UF COP admissions like- it keeps saying Page Not Found.
Is anyone else having this problem, i'm trying to submit my essays and its getting to be quite difficult. I already emailed the COP but havent heard back
Campus choice has absolutely no bearing on interview date or chances of acceptance. Distance campus students can be interviewed at Gville.It probably also depends on how you list your campus preferences. FSUJD, was Gainesville your first choice?

For the fella asking about out of state, I honestly wouldn't even waste the application money. I think they accepted like 1% out of staters last year.
I'm not from FL, and I just received an interview for Feb. 18 (originally Jan. 14, but had to reschedule), so I think there is at least some chance of being accepted if you are out of state.
Nice. What are your stats? GPA/PCAT etc. if you don't mind me asking.
No worries. PCAT-94 composite GPA-2.8 (but this is a bit skewed, 2 semesters of no class attendance 12 years ago, but 4.0 since returning to school 2 years ago) No pharmacy experience (unless you count 3 days of shadowing) Good extracurriculars/community involvement
When did you send in your supplemental?
Seems pretty solid and having a BS will give you an advantage. The single best thing you can do now is score well on the PCATs, so drop that pharm tech job if you feel it's going to infringe on your studying, gl!Hello all,
I'm also in the application process of UF but am not taking my PCAT until 1/22. I'm wondering how well my chances will be since I'm applying this late.
I'm a Florida resident, AA & AS (chem tech) degrees and almost done w/ a BS @ UCF. 3.25 cumulative GPA and my prereq GPA is a 3.65, but I still have 1 more semester of prereqs to take this coming spring semester (Physics 2 & Organic 2). Also just took a 2nd job as a Pharmacy tech a couple days ago to start in January. I have completed my UF application and I'm just waiting for my last reference from my organic teacher to come through before I submit my pharmcas application, then my UF COP application. I'm hoping to get into the Orlando campus. Best of luck to all of you.

Why are there so few posts about uf cop?...I wonder if there are many applicants are applying to UF COP this year. Have many people got invited for an interview?
I don't think there has been much to report as of yet, we're all in limbo...I'm not sure why either. I know there have been 2 rounds of interview invitations so far. I'm kind of curious as to why I haven't gotten my invite yet because I go to UF and I've already gotten interviews to UNC and UK.
By transfers, I think they're referring to people who have started the PharmD curriculum at a different COP, not pre-requisite courses. It is almost impossible to transfer from one COP to another since most schools have a specific program that they follow and they most likely won't overlap or give you the opportunity to take classes that were covered in a previous year. Pre-req's on the other hand are a completely different subject. Most of the students who attend the Orlando campus for example did their pre-req's at Valencia or UCF.Which campus is best to apply to for UF as it asks you on PharmCas is there a difference between the campuses? What is the best campus?
Is it true it is hard to transfer into UF since they accept very little transfers?
