FAQs

Applicants

• I can't view the student's documents. What do I do?

  If you are trying to view a student's admission documents but aren't able to see them, it could be:

  1. You are not on a secure UNF network. Please refer to the ITS VPN website for instructions on how to set up a secure network.
  2. You do not have the appropriate access. Please contact the  Graduate School .
• Where are the student's transcripts located?

  You will find student transcripts in three different locations. The location varies depending on whether you are wanting to view UNF courses or transfer courses, and how the transcript was received. When reviewing a referral you will have links to each area, but follow these directions to locate transcripts outside of a referral. 

  1. Log into  myWings.
  2. Select the  Staff  tile.
  3. Under My Applications, click the  Employee Self Service  link.
  4. Click on the  UNF Administrative Applications  link.
  5. Click on the  Student Information  link. From this menu you will be able to locate the student's transcripts. It is recommended you check each area to ensure you are reviewing the entire record and most up-to-date information.

  
  

  UNF coursework: Click on Student Transcript. Enter the UNF ID and click Submit. The student's entire UNF academic record will be displayed. 

   

  Transfer institution transcripts that arrived via the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) system: Click on Transfer Evaluation. Enter the UNF ID and click Submit. Any transfer work and degrees earned that were received in this format will populate. The majority of Florida's public institutions will use this method to send us transcripts.

   

  Transfer institution transcripts that arrived in paper format or digital copy: Click on Admission Checklist Status. Enter the UNF ID and click Submit. Any applications the student has submitted will populate. Locate the application you would like to review, or the most recent application, and click the Term hyperlink. Click on the View Imaged Documents Related to the Admissions Application hyperlink to open the scanning database, OnBase. Any transfer transcripts that were received in this format will populate as STU-TRANSCRIPT-[official indicator].

   

  Important Notes

  • If a transcript is not indicated as official it does not mean it isn't current. Many transcripts we receive are missing proof of degree earned but will be current on coursework. They should still be used for admission review. 
  • Please check received dates to ensure you are looking at the most current information.
  • Any student with an outstanding proof of degree and/or who has coursework in progress, will have an open application checklist item requesting the missing information. They can be admitted but will need to satisfy this requirement within their first term of enrollment at UNF.
• How do I view in-progress applications?

     • Documents without a hyperlink in the Uploaded Document column will be in the scanning database, OnBase; or potentially on the Transfer Evaluation screen if it's a transcript (refer to above question). Click on the View Imaged Documents Related to the Admissions Application hyperlink to open OnBase. 
     • Some students will upload documents and email them to us. It is recommended to check both places. 
• How long do I have to review an application?

  The application process requires the Graduate School to cancel incomplete applications after the deadline for the term. Students with incomplete applications are regularly notified via email of missing items during the active submission window and are always prompted to consistently check their status in MyWings. The Graduate School additionally leaves applications open after the deadline to allow in-progress students to submit outstanding checklist items. But while we make every effort to help applicants complete the requirements, we must also maintain an accurate record of our applications and close the active cycle by cancelling incomplete submissions. 

   

  Process

   

  1. Prior to the application deadline you will be contacted and asked if you would like to extend your deadline. If we do not receive response back, we will assume you are holding to the posted deadline.
  2. Applicants will be given two calendar weeks after the application deadline to complete their application checklist, unless you request we do so sooner.
  3. Immediately preceding the date set to cancel, we will send one final email as a reminder that any incomplete applications will be cancelled. This notice will allow you to communicate any specific student issues to our office. 
  4. All applicants with outstanding items will be cancelled, unless you specifically requested not to cancel a particular student. Once the cancellation decision is rendered, it cannot be reversed. Students will need to apply online for a future term or apply as non-degree seeking for the cancelled term.
     • Paper applications will no longer be accepted for students wishing to apply after the deadline. They will need to apply online for a future term or apply as non-degree seeking for the requested term.

   

Current Students

• How do I sign a student up for graduation if they missed the deadline?
  If a student missed the deadline to apply for graduation through their myWings account, they will be advised to speak with you. The department is required to submit a paper graduation application to the Records & Registration Office. If you do not have this application, please contact your departments advising office or the Records & Registration Office.
