Online Business Courses
For Campus-Based Students Away from UF
Each semester, the Warrington College of Business Administration provides campus-based students who are away from Gainesville with the opportunity to take UF business courses online. This service allows both degree seeking and non-degree seeking students to view course lectures via streaming video and take proctored exams on specific days at one of 26 test sites in Florida. To participate, you must meet college and university computer requirements and have a GatorLink account. Note: Campus-based students who are in Gainesville are not permitted to register for these courses.
Non-Florida Residents: You are welcome to enroll in online business courses while you are away from Gainesville, but you will need to make travel arrangements to an established Florida test site up to four times per term per course to take exams. The program currently offers no test sites outside of Florida.
