Admissions
Although admission is offered to most students who apply to the school, prospective applicants must complete several steps of certification and evaluation before final approval and prior to registering for a course of study or specific classes.
Proof of high school graduation or GED equivalency plus high school transcripts, if applicable, are required. In addition, applicants must establish their legal residency in the United States and qualify for either in-state or out-of-state residency for the state of Florida.
Finally, prospective students must submit to a standardized test to assess college readiness. Several options are available to fulfill this requirement, including the SAT, ACT, or the Computerized Placement Tests. English skills tests may be required for overseas applicants or non-native speakers. Additional prerequisites or admission requirements may apply for admission to specific programs or courses of study.

The school has rolling deadlines throughout the year for financial aid applications, but officials caution that early submission of the FAFSA and supporting documents is the best way to ensure full consideration and the maximum award.
