Alabama wants to make sure that
10:01
application fees do not pose a barrier
10:03
for any student in applying for
10:06
admission do you feel that your
10:08
financial circumstances might qualify
10:09
you for an application fee waver I'm
10:12

10:14
you will be interested in so you can
10:15
click in here and see application waiver
10:18
I received or I'm eligible to receive
10:21

10:29
for you you can choose yes and then give
10:33
information here They're just military
10:35

10:36
NACA So I'm going to say no here if you
10:39
want to pay your uh application fee Uh
10:42
identity and identification optional
10:44
Let's say he him male and
10:47
religious I'm I'm just going to say none
10:50
here It's irrelevant Future plans The
10:52
University of Alabama expects all
10:54
incoming freshmen to live freshmen to
10:56
live on campus unless exempt from the
10:58
freshman residency requirement You can
11:00
also click here to read about this that
11:03
takes you to another website So
11:05
basically UA expects all first year
11:08
full-time students live on campus for
11:10
the entirety of their first year to
11:12
provide students with a comprehensive
11:14
educational experience So you can read
11:16
about that Let's say on campus housing
11:18
and then languages of course you have to
11:21
give them your own like native language
11:23
and then English obviously Okay Turkish
11:26
is my first language and then let's say
11:29
English is reading speaking and writing
11:32
That's fine And then we have
11:34
disciplinary and criminal history They
11:36
ask you a lot of stuff here Prior
11:38
behavior is reviewed as part of
11:40
admission decisions but a criminal or
11:41
disciplinary history is not an absolute
11:43
or automatic bar If you answer yes to
11:46
any of the following questions you must
11:47
upload a statement providing details
11:50
blah blah blah I'm going to say no to
11:51
all of this Uh because this is a very
11:53
specific situation and I do believe a
11:55
very tiny minority of you would have
11:58
anything like anything like this Ever
12:00
been suspended dismissed removed uh from
12:02
a secondary high school ever been placed
12:05
on probation suspended blah blah blah
12:07
Received a restraining order Currently
12:10
subject to pending criminal charges Ever
12:12
been convicted of a crime i'm going to
12:14
say no And of course you have to
12:17
understand that withholding or failing
12:19
disclose requested information any one
12:21
of these and your application will be
12:24
pretty much gone So yeah let's say
12:26
continue And then we have certifications
12:28
By submitting this application I certify
12:31
that the information contained herein is
12:33
true correct and complete I will
12:35
promptly inform the University of
12:37
Alabama if there is a change to any of
12:39
these respon and if the responses in
12:41
this application including new or
12:43
additional information whether the same
12:45
occurs during the application proc
12:46
process blah blah blah I understand that
12:49
providing false information or failing
12:50
to provide new or updated information
12:53
may result in university action I
12:55
understand that any offer blah blah blah
12:57
You can read all of this I'll just agree
12:59
to anything since this is not a real
13:02
application The e-ign act requires that
13:04
the University of Alabama receive a
13:06
student's voluntary consent to receive
13:08
electronic communications regarding
13:10
certain financial aid notices and
13:12
disclosures before the university can
13:14
electronically send those notices We
13:16
must receive consent from the student So
13:18
yeah if you when we want to consent to
13:20
this we have the ethical conduct
13:22
nondiscrimination notice UAC committed
13:26
an unethical blah blah blah like read
13:28
all this and click on continue and then

13:37
So in the review section um if you have
13:40

13:42

13:44

14:55
you'll have to pay the application fee
14:57
which is about $40 Um obviously I'm

going to leave here because I do not
15:01
want to send them a fake application
15:04
especially one in which I signed it as
15:07
John Doe Um so yeah that's pretty much
15:09
it This was the application procedure
15:12
