Simulation Notes
UF Key Modeling Considerations
- EA is brand new (2024-25 cycle), so no historical EA acceptance rate available. The EA round admitted 58% of total admits, suggesting strong EA preference.
- Very low acceptance rate for a public (19.8%) — approaching elite private territory.
- Strong Hispanic enrollment (25%) reflects Florida demographics.
- Exceptionally low net cost for low-income students ($1,994 for <$30K).
UGA Key Modeling Considerations
- Significant in-state vs out-of-state differential in EA (42% vs 23%).
- More typical flagship acceptance rate (34%).
- Heavily white enrollment (67%) — more homogeneous than UF.
- Higher net costs across all brackets compared to UF.
- 80% in-state enrollment target is a distinctive policy.
