Degree in Three
Degree in Three provides assistance and support to eligible students who are committing to graduate in three years or less.
Degree in Three is designed for highly motivated students entering UWF with college credit earned through AP, IB, AICE, or dual enrollment and for individuals who are academically prepared to complete more credit hours per term than average.
How Does It Work?
Meet with Your Advisor
Your academic advisor will sit down with you to develop strategic course schedules and create a Student Educational Planner (SEP) degree plan in Degree Works to map out your path to graduating within three years of your first semester.
Join Degree in Three
Commit to following the SEP plan developed by you and your advisor. Your eligibility to join Degree in Three will be reviewed during your senior year and is based on your SEP degree plan status and graduation term.
Earn your Degree in Three
Apply online for graduation. Your SEP plan should be in an on-track status at the start of your final term. If you receive communication providing you with information for accessing your Degree in Three benefits, your graduation countdown will begin!
Benefits
Eligible students may* receive:
- $2,000 Graduation Grant for your final term.
