Early Decision
UCF doesn't offer an early decision or early-action plan choice for admissions. It does use a waitlist, which is for students that have been accepted, but are waiting for a space to free up for admission. Once accepted into UCF for a certain semester, a student may not defer. UCF does allow for early admission. This is an option open to first-time freshmen, which allows them to enroll as first-time, first-year freshman one or more years before high school graduation.
Books and Supplies
Books and supplies generally run about $860 per semester. UCF's book store is a Barnes & Noble. Typically, science/engineering, history, and math books are the most expensive.
