Application Notification
The School of Nursing will now contact undergraduate applicants (Prelicensure, Accelerated Prelicensure, RN-BSN) electronically regarding the status of their applications.  This will occur only after the School of Nursing Admissions Office has received and reviewed the application and will be done one time per application.  Existing applicants who are not current UNF students will be notified by US Postal Service only if a working email is not on file; existing UNF students with an active UNF email account will receive notice there. 

Those making application to the program from this point forward must provide a working email when applying.  Be sure to add “unf.edu” as a safe domain to email filters so that emails from our program are not delivered to “Junk” mailboxes.  The notification email is considered official notification to you of your status and the School of Nursing will expect that you received the notification unless we otherwise receive notice that the message did not send properly. Access to the status of one’s application is available through the myWings portal at www.unf.edu.  Questions regarding this process should be directed to Beth Dibble, Nursing Admissions Coordinator, by email at nursingadmissions@unf.edu.
