Seamlessly Transition from NWF to UWF
Beginning fall 2011 the University of West Florida has partnered with Northwest Florida State College to offer the NWF2UWF program that guarantees university admission to any student who completes an associate of arts degree. The agreement benefits students by reducing the total cost of higher education by encouraging students to complete an associate of arts degree at Northwest Florida State College. Students also benefit from collaborative academic advising from the University of West Florida Transfer Advisors and an on-site NWF2UWF Program Coordinator located on the Niceville Campus. Students will also receive access to UWF services and benefits before they enroll in the university. Students who complete an associate of arts degree at NWF are guaranteed admissions at UWF contingent upon meeting the minimum transfer requirements.
