Attention Candidates, Recommenders, and Families

The 2024/2025 Universal College Application® is now offline as we prepare for the new 2025/2026 application.
PLEASE NOTE: During the system update to the new 2025/2026 application, no new accounts can be created, nor can you log in to an existing applicant/recommender/adviser account.
Therefore, any unsubmitted applications/recommendations for the 2024/2025 school year cannot be submitted through UCA anymore.
We anticipate the new 2025/2026 application will be available starting on or about July 1, 2025. Please check back then.
