Did You Know?

If you are a UF student, you can decide to register to vote and cast your vote either here at UF, or your family’s address back home. Updating your Florida registration to vote in the Gainesville community will not affect your federal financial aid, status as a dependent on your parents’ taxes, or tuition status. You can update your address at the early voting locations listed above, or call the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections Office at 352-374-5252.
