Admission Appeals

Appeals by Denied Applicants

Denied applicants may appeal the decision with a written petition addressed to the Office of Admissions, at apply@ncf.edu. It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that the written appeal and any supporting materials (e.g., updated transcripts) are received by the Office of Admissions by the deadline given. Appeal decisions are typically provided within 4 weeks after the deadline for receipt of appeal.

Conduct

The Vice President for Student Affairs will review appeals by applicants denied admission on the basis of previous misconduct, provided they submit additional information.

Disability

The President of New College of Florida will review the petition of any denied applicant appealing the Committee’s decision regarding substitution or modification of an admission requirement on the basis of a disability; the President’s decision on appeal shall constitute the College’s final decision.

Other

The Provost will review the petitions of all other denied applicants. The request must indicate extenuating circumstances and/or appropriate alternative evidence of academic ability and achievement, motivation, and responsibility, indicating potential for success at New College. The Provost’s decision on appeal shall constitute the College’s final decision.
