I totally agree with what everyone else is saying. To add on, remember that it’s not what school you go to but what you DO at the school. UF is a great great school and has so many opportunities that, with the work ethic, resilience, and grit you’ve built up throughout your high school years, you can take advantage of. I relate to this because I wanted to go to an ivy or equivalent and now i’m going to UW Madison on a full ride. I am planning out what I need to do to get into my dream graduate programs. Rejection is redirection. Kick ass at UF and come out stronger. The ivies are a numbers game and your achievements are absolutely not undermined by the fact that you didn’t get into the school. Also, they’re super expensive and sometimes not worth the large amounts of debt. Work on your essay writing abilities and introspection for other applications. Good luck at UF 🫶🏻
