Florida State College at Jacksonville's reputation is growing as the largest, most dynamic, and most influential higher education institution on the First Coast. The impact of our college extends beyond student success and economic growth — to the arts and culture in our community. Through the Artist Series, honored by the State of Florida as a “Major Cultural Institution,” we bring top-rated Broadway productions, concerts, and cultural performances to Jacksonville each year.

The College has four campuses and three centers throughout the community. All campuses offer all the classes required to complete an Associate in Arts degree, which guarantees transfer to a public university. Each campus also features a library, multiple computer labs, a learning center for extra support when you need it, a career development center, and an assessment and certification center.
