NOTE: While the non-degree application states that non-degree applications are not being accepted for Fall and Spring terms (for in-person campus courses), this is not the case for the special programs, such as the distance forensics programs. Please disregard this statement on the non-degree application. E-mail us at forensics@ahc.ufl.edu with any questions.

We will begin processing non-degree applications once registration opens for that semester. Please check our key dates. If approved, we will email you with instructions on how to submit a registration request.
