We present the analysis of the deepest near-UV image obtained with HST using the WFPC2(F300W) as part of the parallel observations of the Ultra Deep Field campaign. The U-band 10sigma limiting magnitude measured over 0.2 arcsec square is m(AB)=27.5 which is 0.5 magnitudes deeper than that in the HDF-North. We matched the U-band catalog with those in the ACS images taken during the GOODS observations of the CDF-South and obtained photometric-z for 306 matched objects. We find that the UV-selected galaxies span all the major morphological types at 0.2
