If not already assigned from a previous application, an eight-digit UFID will be generated and can be viewed on the application status page.

The application will be forwarded electronically to the UF college requested in the application. Colleges make the final decision and may require additional information. Once a decision is made, a status update will be posted on the application status page.

If approved, the status update will provide registration directions and information on creating a GatorLink account.

International students will be prompted to furnish proof of health insurance. Registration start times will be visible in ONE.UF after all holds have been cleared.
