Damn!!! When I was applying a couple years ago Florida IIRC was around 35%. Not surprised it's rising in the ranks, though, it's an awesome school with awesome weather year round. Should invest in a hockey team though, hockey in Florida is booming and those fans down there are something else. I'm sure it would do great, especially with how successful ASU has been. Your nephew should have an awesome time there.Florida was at about 23% acceptance rate this year. That means the out of state kids probably only had a 15% or so admission rate. My middle one considered Ga Tech but it had a vibe that didn’t align with what he was looking for. Texas has to take something like the top 5% of all high school graduates in Texas and has few out of state spots available. I know one kid going there because he is buddies with Arch Manning. The whole thing is getting out of hand.
Definitely get the lack of appeal for GT, though. I didn't apply for similar reasons. The whole school didn't really give off the right vibe for me. UT Austin I've heard great things about, but that story is pretty wild. They're crazy about football though and I'm sure they would've done anything to get Arch to come.
