Junior Preview and SURF Application - Graduate Student Affairs

Update: Due to lingering COVID-19, we are switching to the Virtual Junior Preview format for fall 2021. SURF will remain as an on-campus program in the UF Residence Halls for Summer 2022. The application deadline is now extended through October 22 until all Department Slots are Filled; however, faculty and department review begins September 27. Students who attend Virtual Junior Preview will continue to have increased opportunity for SURF offers & Ph.D. admission, APPLY BELOW NOW!

This application is used for any prospective engineering Ph.D. student applying for the 2021 Junior Preview program and/or 2022 SURF program. This application is only for engineering prospects including any engineering REUs.

HWCOE will no longer accept Junior Preview applications past midnight on October 7, 2021. This form doubles as the SURF application and we will continue to accept applications for that program.

Letters of recommendation can be uploaded in the application below or the recommender may email the letter directly to Brittany Boyer (brittany.boyer@ufl.edu) or Mike Nazareth (mikenaz@eng.ufl.edu).
