Applications are available in the Department office in early September. Awards are based upon merit and program option. These applications are accepted during the summer prior to enrollment and again in January. The University also provides numerous scholarship and financial aid programs for students. Applications should be submitted six to nine months before the preferred enrollment date.
Admission is competitive and is based upon academic record, test scores, and other factors.
Students can enroll in May, June, August, or January. Summer admission is less competitive than fall admission. Yes, two sequential years of the same foreign language taken in high school or eight to ten sequential semester credit hours taken at the postsecondary level are required for admission to any program at the University of Florida. The Department has collaborated with the college in developing a listing of courses that should be completed at the community college prior to transferring to the University of Florida. A copy of the departmental prerequisite courses can be obtained from the AEC undergraduate coordinator or your community college advisor.
