Is UF right for me?

Question

I’m currently a hs senior who’s considering ED/EA to Florida. My mom is an alum, and when I toured I LOVED the school, but I’m afraid about whether I’ll like it or not, since I’m OOS. I might qualify for in state because my grandparents live in Florida, and my mom lives there part time also. I’m from Massachusetts, but I didn’t love UMass Amherst, and the other state schools aren’t fantastic.

I’m a girl, I’d say I’m pretty social and I like to have fun, but I’m not super popular and well known at my own school. My school is pretty small (about 1000 people), which I don’t love. I plan to major in marketing, maybe with a minor in CS/data science.

here are my stats: 4.2 weighted gpa, 34 act, 7 aps (3 junior year, all 5s, 4 in senior year), part time job, leadership in a few clubs (drama, Spanish), rowing team, auditioned orchestra member, AP capstone, 225+ volunteer hours.
