Returning Students
If you have been away from the College for more than a year, you will need to update information on your application. Returning students are required to provide two documentations to classify as an in-state Florida resident for tuition purposes.
Official High School or College Transcripts
If you graduated from a public high school in Duval (after June 1989), St. Johns (after June 1993) or Clay (after June 1992) county, the College will request an official transcript after we receive your application. If you graduated from a public or private high school outside of Duval, St. Johns or Clay counties, please have your high school send an official transcript indicating your graduation date to Florida State College at Jacksonville, Admissions Office, P.O. Box 40515, Jacksonville, FL 32203-0515. If you have attended any other college or university, please request each school to forward your official transcript to the above address.
