Apply in July

Getting an admission decision earlier has never been easier! 

1. Submit UNF application (application opens July 1): Our online admissions application opens on July 1. You need to submit your application as quickly as possible to ensure we are able to review it and your admission materials in time.
2. Submit admission materials: Submit your high school transcript and test scores immediately after submitting your application. We recommend obtaining these before you leave school for the summer break.
3. Register for Apply in July via an emailed link. Once you have completed your application and submitted your documents, be on the lookout for an email with a link to select your appointment time.
4. Attend Apply in July at your registered time. During the event, you will meet with an admissions representative who will provide you with your non-binding, on-the-spot admission decision and answer any questions you may have.

Hold off on making travel plans prior to confirming a spot at the event. Event spots are limited and can fill up quickly.

Now let's review how to complete the necessary steps:

1. You probably guessed it, but submit your application online!
2. Pay the application fee in your applicant portal.
   • UNF accepts SAT, ACT and NACAC college application fee waivers for eligible students. Waivers can be uploaded through your applicant portal.
3. Submit your SAT, ACT and/or CLT test scores. 
   • Upload a PDF score report directly into your applicant portal. Make sure your name, test date and all essential information is included and clearly visible.
4. Submit your high school transcript(s).
   • Upload a PDF copy of your transcript(s) in your applicant portal.
   • Transcripts must have your 9th-11th final grades.

Important: 

• Check your applicant portal and email regularly to ensure we receive all of the necessary materials. 
• Submit everything as quickly as possible to allow enough time for review.

A few things to keep in mind about receiving an admission decision at Apply in July:

• Decisions are non-binding. This simply means that you can receive your decision without making an immediate commitment to attend the University of North Florida.
• You may be admitted to a term other than the one to which you apply. Based on your academic profile and our admission midranges (listed below), we will review your application for general admission into the University. Specific term of admission or program may be determined at a later time. 
• Admission is not guaranteed. We work hard to admit as many great students as possible during Apply in July. However, some students may be placed on our waitlist or denied based on their academic profile. We encourage you to review our admission midranges below to get an idea of general expectations. 

Incoming Freshman Midranges

Wondering what kind of GPA and test scores you need? The Office of Admissions publishes the academic midranges of admitted first-time-in-college (FTIC) students as a reference. The mid-ranges represent the middle 50% of admitted students at UNF, not all admitted students.

Receiving your Official Decision

While you may receive an admission decision during the event, you will not receive your official UNF Admission Decision Packet in the mail until November or December.
