Admission Clearance

Attention UCF Applicants

Universities may deny admission or readmission to an applicant due to past misconduct on or off campus, providing such denial is consistent with state and federal law. Florida Board of Governors Regulation 6.001 authorizes universities to deny admission to applicants due to past misconduct. University boards of trustees shall establish guidelines regarding evidence required for such action (UCF Regulations Chapter UCF-2).

Admission Clearance Overview:

• All applicants for admission or readmission to the University of Central Florida, including applicants for post-baccalaureate or non-degree-seeking attendance, and regardless of program of study, are required to disclose on the application prior criminal conduct, pending criminal charges, and prior educational misconduct.
• The University reviews all applications in which a student discloses prior criminal conduct, pending criminal charges and prior educational misconduct to determine whether the admission of the applicant is in the best interest of the University. The Dean of Students office is responsible for this review.
• Applicants who fail to disclose prior criminal misconduct, pending criminal charges, or any prior educational misconduct violate the disclosure requirements of this paragraph and may be subject to appropriate action by the University, including denial of admission or readmission, revocation of admission, or other academic and/or disciplinary action prescribed by the University, up to and including dismissal.
