  • Florida College accepts the standard ACT and SAT tests. If you choose to take the writing portion for your own purposes, your score for this section will not be evaluated by Florida College or included to determine your composite score for academic scholarships or course placement. We will only evaluate the critical reading and the math scores of this exam.

For admission, the applicant who will enter Florida College must be at least 17 years old by the first day of class.

If you do not meet the following academic requirements, please reach out to admissions@floridacollege.edu for more information.

When you took the ACT, CLT, and/or SAT, you had the opportunity to request that your scores be sent automatically to colleges and universities that you were interested in. If you included Florida College in this list, we will receive your scores automatically. If you did not request that we receive your scores at the time of your tests, you will need to request that an official copy of your scores be sent to us directly from the testing agency. Applicants need to request the individual score reports for each test date, rather than requesting only their highest or super scores. Florida College will super score, once we receive all of the applicants scores.

Florida College accepts college credit earned by examination, following the guidelines set by the Florida Articulation Coordinating Committee, for the Advanced Placement (AP) program, Cambridge AICE program, International Baccalaureate Program, and College Level Examination Program (CLEP). Up to 45 semester hours credit may be earned by examination. No examination credit can be assigned if credit by course work is previously or subsequently awarded, or if a course in that discipline or any part thereof has been begun in college classroom work.
