Application Process

International students interested in participating in the UWF exchange program must first be nominated by their home institution. Once confirmation of a student's eligibility has been received, the acceptance process can begin.

Exchange applications are due by April 1 for Fall exchange and by October 15 for Spring exchange.

1. Complete the application. No application fee is required.

2. Send transcripts from your home institution in English.

3. Submit proof of English proficiency. This can be the TOEFL, IELTS, or another institutionally approved test. Students from partner institutions where the only language of instruction is English are exempt from this requirement.

All documents can be scanned and sent electronically to international@uwf.edu.
