Select your program/degree
Contact the SFCC University Center to obtain information on the various programs or the program of your choice. After you have reviewed the information and would like to meet with someone to pursue admissions, etc., call, e-mail or stop by the SFCC University Center. We will direct you to an advisor from one of our partnering schools. The advisor will be able to answer your questions about their programs, prerequisites, admissions standards, transcripts, and tuition.
Apply for admission
Apply to the school of your choice (from the list below). You are eligible to become a SFCC University Center student after you have completed your A.A. or A.S. degree or have completed the equivalency of your freshman and sophomore year of college. Applications may be completed online (click appropriate link from within selected school list below), or pick up a hard copy application form at the SFCC University Center.
You must meet the admission requirements of the partner school, which becomes your home campus while you are attending classes at the SFCC University Center. The courses for your degree program will be taught at the SFCC University Center at the Highlands Campus, or may be offered through distance learning via the Web or two-way interactive TV.
Apply for financial aid
Students interested in receiving grants, loans, or other financial aid must complete the FAFSA. Contact the Office of Financial Aid through the home campus. Phone numbers and Web sites are listed below.
Register for classes
Each partner institution has its own specific registration process. The SFCC University Center will direct you to the program advisor who will assist you with registering for classes and paying your fees.
The tuition and fees to attend the partnership institution is the same as the cost of attending the home campus in most instances. Some colleges or universities may offer a tuition discount. Check with the program advisor to find out.
Attend class
Classes are offered primarily in the evenings, which cater to students who have commitments during the day. However, some programs that meet as a cohort group may require some day time and/or weekend attendance. Your program advisor will explain these requirements before you enter the program. Most SFCC University Center classes meet on the Highlands Campus, located at 600 West College Drive, Avon Park, Fla.
Note: The Organizational Management Program meets at the Hardee Campus in Bowling Green, Fla., on U.S. Highway 17 North.
