The Transient Student Form is designed for UWF students who have permission to enroll in courses at another institution. However, it may also be used by transient students who wish to enroll at UWF as a non-degree student if permitted by their home institution. Transient students may need to complete and submit additional information such as an application or transcripts prior to registration. Contact the institution at which you intend to enroll in courses for institutional policies regarding transient students. UWF students should consult with their advisors prior to enrolling in any courses at other institutions. Courses completed as a transient student are evaluated as transfer courses upon receipt of an official transcript.
UWF students enrolling in courses at another institution should print the form (link provided below), complete the top sections (A and B), have section C completed and signed by the UWF Academic Advisor and have the bottom section (D) completed and signed by the UWF Registrar's Office. A final, completed copy must be submitted to the transient institution. Students are responsible for having official transcripts sent to UWF upon completion of coursework.
Students from other institutions enrolling in courses at UWF will be classified as non-degree seeking and are subject to the policies and procedures for non-degree seeking students as stated in the Catalog. Please refer to the Catalog for specific information. Interested students should go to FACTS.org and select the Transfer Services link (then Transient Student Form). FACTS.org is Florida's official online student advising system.
