Eastern Florida Admissions Process?

Hey everyone. Just trying to get my head around the Eastern Florida admissions process. Is it straightforward, or are there any specific things I should be aware of? Also, which programs are the best there?

Hello!

Eastern Florida State College has a pretty straightforward admissions process, similar to many community colleges. Here's a basic breakdown:

1. You will first need to apply for admission online. During this process, you will create a secure login and password to access your account in the future. You'll need to provide your basic information and academic history at this stage.

2. After submitting your application, you'll pay a one-time, non-refundable application fee.

3. Next, you'll need to send your high school transcripts or GED scores and any college or university transcripts if applicable to the college. In some cases, you may need to send test scores like SAT or ACT, especially if you're applying for a specific program that requires them.

4. Complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to apply for financial aid. Eastern Florida’s school code is 001470.

5. Then, you will need to take any placement tests necessary such as the Postsecondary Education Readiness Test (PERT), or pass mandatory review courses.

6. Lastly, all degree-seeking students must attend a new student orientation, which you can sign up for online through your student account.

As for the programs, Eastern Florida State College offers a variety of programs in different fields. Among the most popular are: health & clinical professions, liberal arts, business & marketing, and security & protective services. The best program for you, however, really depends on your personal interests and career goals.

Remember, it's always a good idea to contact the Admissions Office directly to ensure you're on track and meeting all the requirements, as they can sometimes vary depending on the specific program you're interested in. Good luck with your application!
