Application for Admission

All interested applicants should complete the University of Central Florida Undergraduate Admissions Application and include the $30 in U.S. Currency, nonrefundable application fee. Students may also apply online at our web site, http://www.admissions.ucf.edu. Students should apply several months in advance of an anticipated start date. Mail admission applications to:

Applications for admission can be submitted up to several months prior to the start of the term desired. The priority application deadlines are May 1 for the Fall semester (July 1 for Transfer students), November 1 for the Spring semester, and March 1 for the Summer semester. The priority deadline for most financial assistance and scholarships is March 1. Information and an application for University housing can be found at http://www.housing.ucf.edu. Requests for housing are subsequently reviewed by date of the receipt of the housing application. The University encourages applications from qualified persons of both sexes and from all cultural, racial, religious, and ethnic groups. The University does not discriminate on the basis of disability for admission.

Applicants should understand that this Undergraduate Catalog outlines minimum requirements to be considered for admission and that admission to the University is selective. The satisfaction of minimum requirements does not guarantee admission. Conversely, Florida Department of Education policy allows the University to admit students to any semester as exceptions to the minimum requirements. The Undergraduate Admissions Office and the Admissions and Standards Committee are responsible for the admission of all undergraduate students under this exceptions policy.

Applicants must request that official transcripts from each educational institution attended be forwarded directly to the Undergraduate Admissions Office. To be considered official, all supporting admissions documents must be received directly from the issuing institution or testing agency. All final supporting documents (official transcripts and test scores) must be received by Undergraduate Admissions no later than 6 days after the first day of classes.

Note: Furnishing false or fraudulent statements in connection with an application for admission or residency affidavit may result in disciplinary action, denial of admission, loss of financial aid, and invalidation of credits or degrees earned.

Those enrolled students who have not submitted official completed records by the deadline will be placed on administrative hold. Students with these incomplete records will not be permitted to register for a future term until all official transcripts and other required documentation have been received. If, upon review of final transcripts, student records are not satisfactory, they may be placed on academic probation, have their admission status revoked, changed to non-degree or transient status, may become ineligible for financial assistance, and may, in some cases, be withdrawn from the University. In addition to the required documentation mentioned above, students must have a satisfactory conduct record at all schools attended.

Reactivation

Students who have submitted an application for admission to UCF as a degree-seeking student and do not attend, may reactivate the original application within one year of the term for which they first applied. To update the application, students should complete the Reactivation Form online at https://www.admissions.mca.ucf.edu/secure/react_app_login.asp by the published application deadline date. This process reactivates the application only; additional official credentials may be required. Admission for one term does not guarantee admission for a future term.
