Why not visit Chris (Rmplmnz) from Tampa while you're there? That's not too far from Gainesville. Well, unless you get enough bananas in Gainesville.

Just look along the side of the road. I saw a "Bunch" growing wild while I was down there.....On a different note could you let me know how many of the football team graduated? I'm sure you could just count them on one hand...lol

The out-of-state tuition is +$30,000 per year. Can we do a big banana fundraiser to help me pay?! Otherwise it will be very difficult.



Just kidding...I would feel so bad if I didn't even get in!

Thanks for the good luck, Sam. That school is so hard to get into recently. I'm also going to apply to Virginia Tech and maybe University of Hawaii Manoa...maybe. It's just that UF looks like such a nice school, a campus tour would just top it all off!

Let's not get ahead of ourselves! I would hate to disappoint anyone here.

I hope I am not invading Sam's thread...but totally aside from bananas, where would you all go and why? Bananas can be considered, but that's not really the way I am going to choose my school.

Where else has a great Ag program?

By the way Sam, you can get Grad school at UF for in-state tuition even though you're in Tennessee.

NC State and Georgia have a great Ag program. Tennessee has a great Ag program also (gotta plug Tennessee, I go to school here!). Off the top of my head, that's the three that come to mind, regionally.

I've considered grad school at UF, since my entire family lives in Gainesville now (well, almost all of them).
