You can adapt this answer to How to make beamer overlays with Tikz node:
\tikzset{onslide/.code args={<#1>#2}{%
\only<#1>{\pgfkeysalso{#2}} % \pgfkeysalso doesn't change the path
}}
\tikzset{alt/.code args={<#1>#2#3}{%
\alt<#1>{\pgfkeysalso{#2}}{\pgfkeysalso{#3}} % \pgfkeysalso doesn't change the path
}}
\tikzset{temporal/.code args={<#1>#2#3#4}{%
\temporal<#1>{\pgfkeysalso{#2}}{\pgfkeysalso{#3}}{\pgfkeysalso{#4}} % \pgfkeysalso doesn't change the path
}}
This allows you to put for instance temporal=<overlay specification>{before}{during}{after} in the keyval list anywhere in a TikZ command. onslide works the same way with \only and I included \alt to round out the set.
Here is the complete code:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{positioning,arrows}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\definecolor{uablue}{RGB}{0,61,100}
\colorlet{uablue100}{uablue}
\colorlet{uablue75} {uablue!75!white}
\colorlet{uablue50} {uablue!50!white}
\colorlet{uablue25} {uablue!25!white}
\colorlet{uablue10} {uablue!10!white}
\colorlet{uablue5} {uablue!5!white}
\definecolor{uared}{RGB}{126,0,47}
\colorlet{uared100}{uared}
\colorlet{uared75} {uared!75!white}
\colorlet{uared50} {uared!50!white}
\colorlet{uared25} {uared!25!white}
\colorlet{uared10} {uared!10!white}
\colorlet{uared5} {uared!5!white}
\tikzset{onslide/.code args={<#1>#2}{%

}}
\tikzset{alt/.code args={<#1>#2#3}{%
\alt<#1>{\pgfkeysalso{#2}}{\pgfkeysalso{#3}} % \pgfkeysalso doesn't change the path

\tikzset{temporal/.code args={<#1>#2#3#4}{%
\temporal<#1>{\pgfkeysalso{#2}}{\pgfkeysalso{#3}}{\pgfkeysalso{#4}} % \pgfkeysalso doesn't change the path

As one option, outside of LaTeX, you could set up Adobe Reader to do this. Under
Preferences->Full Screen, select the Loop after last page option:
