Welcome

Welcome to the University of West Florida where we are launching the next generation of big thinkers who will change the world.

UWF has awarded more than 100,000 degrees from over 70 undergraduate and graduate programs. Our small class sizes ensure personalized, focused attention from some of the nation’s most engaging professors.

As the home of the Argonauts, UWF builds champions for life through our intercollegiate athletics program, leading the Gulf South Conference in all time championships and all-sports trophies.

Amid a nature lover’s paradise, our serene Pensacola campus boasts 25 miles of trails perfect for hiking or biking, marine research vessels and the first official university parkrun site in the nation. UWF is a short drive from white-sand beaches and renowned local attractions that make for an unforgettable University and community. During your visit, explore the 29 historic properties owned and operated by UWF Historic Trust in historic downtown Pensacola and at Arcadia Mill in Santa Rosa County.

Stay awhile and soak in our beautiful views and rich history with a spirited community of learners. We are glad you are here.
