• If needed, UWF graduate admissions office handles requests for any changes to academic programs and applications. https://uwf.edu/graduate/about-us/contact-information/

• Applicants are asked for residency information; however, it is not required and not part of the review for admissions. We do encourage students to complete this, in the event they do take a course outside of their self-supporting/flat-rate programs so they are assessed correctly. 

  Here is a link to the admissions process information: UG: https://uwf.edu/admissions/undergraduate/apply/admissions-forms/, Grad: https://uwf.edu/graduate/apply/residency/
