Future UF Honors Application Procedure

From the official UF Honors Facebook page today. Looks like the application process will be a little different starting next year:

I’m passing along information about 2019 honors admissions because I’ve seen some incorrect info on various message boards - hoping you all can help share the correct info for future Honors Gators and families!

Starting with this next year, students who are interested in the UF Honors Program will apply as part of the UF application. Students will check a box on the UF app to be considered for Honors, and then 2 of our essays will open up for them to complete. The Honors Program will still review these essays and make all of the admissions decision for our program. Students will find out their honors decision along with their UF decision in February.

This is something we have been asking about doing for years, so we’re excited that it’s finally being implemented! Once we wrap up this admissions season after the May 1 confirmation deadline, we will begin more formally advertising this information on all of our channels. It’s scheduled to go out to guidance counselors on the UF Admissions GC listserv within the next month. Thanks for helping us spread the (correct) word!
