Alert...New Student Hold for Fall 2017


There is a new hold that will be placed on all students registered for their second fall semester at UF. You will not be able to register for Spring 2018 unless you complete the steps outlined at
ufcareerready.com

Completing the requirements of both holds will take approximately 45 minutes and the holds will be removed immediately.

If this is not your 2nd Fall semester at UF, you should not have this hold.  

ABE 3MT + Video Event

Undergraduates...are you involved in research? If so, practice your 'elevator speech' at the ABE 3-minute thesis event or show it off in a 2-minute video. This is a great way to prepare for presentations in graduate school. (Sorry, the only prize for undergraduates is applause!). 

Let Shannon Noble know if you'd like to participate!
