Begin Your Application!

Hicks Honors College applications are available until June 30, 2025 or until all available spots are filled.

Step 1: Be admitted to the University of North Florida

To apply for the Hicks Honors College, you must have already applied and been admitted to UNF.

Step 2: Fill out the Hicks Honors College Application

Once you have been admitted to UNF, you can use the steps below to submit your Hicks Honors College application:
  1. Go to the Hicks Honors College Application page
  2. Log in using the same email and password you used for your admissions application
  3. Fill in all required fields
  4. Upload letters of recommendation (optional)
  5. Submit your application

Step 3: Upload materials

If you were unable to upload your letters of recommendation when you submitted your application, or would like to include a video essay, sign back into your Hicks Honors College Application and upload them via your checklist.

Step 4:  Check your application status

Once you have submitted your application, check your UNF email and Hicks Honors College Application page for updates to your application status.

Step 5:  Complete Honors orientation and registration

Once you have received confirmation of your acceptance to the Hicks Honors College, register for Honors New Student Orientation.

Please note: Honors assesses a one-time Honors Experiential Learning Fee of $150 ($75 for transfer students) at the beginning of your first semester in Honors. This fee helps to fund Honors experiences from matriculation through graduation. Your support helps provide valuable opportunities, but you may ask to opt out of this fee. 

Please Note: The Hicks Honors College does not accept delayed admissions. First Time in College (FTIC) students applying for summer or fall admission must participate in the Honors fall semester Retreat and Colloquium experiences. Current UNF students must have a UNF institutional GPA to apply (thus, as early as the second semester at UNF) and will be admitted for the subsequent academic term.
