Whether or not liberals are coming into Florida, more people ARE applying to Florida schools. UF and FSU have been more difficult then ever to get into this year with out of state acceptance rates being 10% and 23% respectively (despite the political climate and professors allegedly leave these schools). The schools are amazing. For example, UF is ranked 28 nationally by Usnews and #1 Public University by Wall Street Journal. Also, these schools offer excellent value where even the OOS cost is comparable to the in-state cost of attending UVA and William and Mary. So people of all political backgrounds are applying to Florida schools for the excellent education and value they provide. I have only seen data that shows that admissions to the top Florida schools are harder than ever.

From what I’m seeing, plenty of northerners are flocking to southern schools—including SEC universities.

What are you seeing in the latest round of applications and admissions?

I think your premise is wrong. Liberals are not avoiding Florida.

Of course they do.

We don’t travel to red states. Period.

No.

Why is the moderator allowing this thread to go on? The Wisconsin vs Michigan threads were (correctly) shut down when they became tin foil, time to do the same here!

It reminds me of Liberals who would complain about Florida during COVID, but then would have no issue vacationing there.

I know! Why would you want to go to school where you can’t get an abortion while waiting in line at Chipotle?

UF is very difficult to get into. Look at this year's stats.

Record number of applications and less than 10% OOS acceptance rate, yet people are screaming “The sky is Falling!” at the top of their lungs.

Where are people getting this 10% OOS figure?

Do the math. Check the CDS updates. Check the December 2024 video presentation. Gather the early 2024 updates. Don’t demand that others spoon feed you details, but here you are.

74K+ applications this admissions cycle (priority and non-priority). Over 32K OOS applicants for less than 800 OOS slots. Even if the yield for OOS acceptances was only 25%, that translates into a max. of 3,200 acceptances. Acceptance rate for OOS less than 10%.

*December 2023

The data you are showing here is similar to the one above. Less than 3% of students are out of state. WHY, why would you go to a school that is 97% in-state students?

If it disagrees with less than 10% OOS admission rate, that’s it’s not similar to mine - at all.

It’s also not 3% OOS enrollment, but it appears nothing is going to relieve you of your ax to grind with UF anyway.

It’s around 15% OOS, with another 2-4% international students.

3%? What was the point of making up a number that is basically 1/5th the actual number?

Do the math. 800 to 1000 out of state students enrolled is 3% of the total number of students enrolled (33,000 thereabouts). What is it that you don't understand?

You’re dividing the annual OOS admissions rate by the entire undergraduate student count? See anything wrong with that … ?

800 - 1,000 is a per year / admissions cycle number, pal. The CDS for UF indicates around 15% OOS.

What were you saying about understanding?

DP. That is a highly biased source -- he is very right wing. He tried to conflate critical race theory with censorship in another piece. I can't imagine this poll is objective.

It’s not libs it’s anyone with a brain

After project 2925 is complete women will have no rights none zero nadda you morons

Red states will be marrying girls off at 10

Women will not be safe but yay college oos must be for darling child

Why do you think Florida is somehow the one place people would avoid going because of its politic?

+1.

You both are idiots

Our laws have changed they will keep changing and not for the better

Rice is in Texas you want to risk your kid being there ?..

Only horrific parents dummies will be sending college aged kids who get pregnant to any red state .

This is not only about abortion you are literally idiots
