Regional Campus System

New transfer students are given the opportunity to meet with a Professional or Faculty Advisor prior to applying to UCF and at any time while enrolled to discuss programs and requirements. Students are asked to meet in a preadvising session prior to Orientation to determine if the student is a Regional Campus or Orlando Campus student. Orlando Campus students are asked to attend Orientation on the Orlando Campus with the College of their choice. Regional Campus students are required to attend Orientation on the Regional Campuses they plan to attend. The student will receive:

  1. Information about the degree programs offered at the Regional Campus;
  2. An understanding of the career options associated with their major program of study; and,
  3. An appropriate program of study along with the first term class schedule.

Regional Campus students have several opportunities to obtain academic advising which begins as coadvising with the Community College in the DirectConnect to UCF program and continues with the Professional Advisors available at the Regional Campuses. Current students will continue to receive advising on the Regional Campus of their choice for the programs that are available on that campus. For a list of the academic programs available through the Regional Campus System, see UCF Regional Campuses within the University of Central Florida chapter of this Undergraduate Catalog.

Orlando Campus students may receive supplemental advising on the Regional Campus, in partnership with the College of the major on the Orlando Campus; this will aid the student in taking courses that are offered at the Regional Campus if they are a part of the students' degree program.
