Student Applicant Disclosure Form


Thank you for applying to the University of Central Oklahoma. You have indicated on your admissions application that you were charged or convicted of one or more felonies. In order to enroll in classes, apply for housing, apply for financial aid, or conduct other University business, you must submit this form and complete the Student Applicant Review Process.
Per UCO policies, anyone who has a pending felony case, is currently in the midst of court proceedings, or in the last 12 months has been arrested for a felony, charged with a felony, or incarcerated is not eligible to participate in the Student Applicant Review Process.
You must provide a full disclosure of information related to your felony charge(s) / conviction(s). Your application to become a student at the University of Central Oklahoma is not considered complete until you have fully disclosed the information requested on the Felony Application Disclosure Form . In order to fully disclose the information needed for eligibility consideration, you are responsible for the following:

1.) providing all information / documentation requested on the online Student Applicant Disclosure Form (below);

2.) confirming that all necessary information / documentation has been received by the Office of Student Conduct; and

3.) attending and participating in an interview before the Student Applicant Review Board, a panel of faculty and staff members chaired by the Director of Student Conduct which will ultimately determine your eligibility.

Please carefully read the following guidelines for completing the Felony Application Disclosure Form:

1.) Be sure that you have allotted enough time to complete the form once you have started. You will not be able to save an incomplete form and return to complete it later. Be sure you have all information and documentation needed when you plan to submit the form. You may want to allow 20-30 minutes to complete the form.

2.) Enter all names by which you have been known including maiden names and nick-names. This benefits you by allowing the background check process to be conducted more swiftly.

3.) There are several documents that are required to be submitted with this form. The complete list of required documents can be located in the section below called 'Supporting Documentation." You will need to have all required files saved on your computer or on a flash drive inserted in your computer, which you are using to complete this form. Hard copies of documents can be saved to your computer or flash drive by scanning and saving them as PDF files.

Suggested sources for obtaining these documents include: probation / parole officer(s), attorney(s), county court clerk office(s), online public record(s), police report(s), etc. Please keep in mind that the list of required documents is not necessarily a list of the titles of the documents, but rather a list of document contexts. The actual title of the documents required may vary by county, state, jurisdiction, etc.

If for some reason a required document does not apply to your charge(s) or conviction(s), you will need to create a file to upload that contains a statement explaining why this document is not applicable. For example, if you did not enter a plea of guilty, you may not have a “Petition to Enter Plea of Guilty/Nolo Contendere or Similar Document.” You would then need to upload a statement explaining that you did not plead guilty and / or submit documentation that supports otherwise.
