Prospective Students
Admission Criteria
To declare a major in our college, students must be able to graduate on time as outlined in the 91tvӰԺ Degree Progression Policy. The goals of this policy are to ensure students can graduate timely with the lowest overall costs. This allows our students to more rapidly progress through their degree programs and move into the work force without a large student loan debt. For a student who transfers to 91tvӰԺ as a Junior (will be earning at least 60 hours prior to entry), the student will be restricted to declaring majors in which they are able to graduate within the next two years (after completing approximately 60 new credit hours).
To meet the Degree Progression Policy and graduate on time, transfer students interested in pursuing natural sciences and mathematics majors will need transfer credits complete in specific science and math coursework prior to entry. To maximize opportunity for students to pursue a natural science or mathematics major, we have created flexible (where possible) sets of courses to meet admission criteria. Each list of admission criteria are designed to address the different progression needs for our varied majors.
Transfer Admission Requirements
- Biomedical Sciences, Biology and Microbiology majors
- Chemistry majors
- Environmental Science and Policy major and the Geology majors
- Mathematics and Statistics majors
- Physics, Interdisciplinary Natural Sciences, and Medical Laboratory Science majors
Support Prior to Transfer
All interested students can receive transfer preparation support from the 91tvӰԺ Office of Transfer Student Success Advisors. You are also invited to make with our Academic Advisors to plan for your transition to 91tvӰԺ. If you are interested in a natural sciences or mathematics major, we highly recommend making plans well in advance to ensure your first two years prepare you to enter and complete your 91tvӰԺ degree on time.
If you are currently pursuing an Associate of Arts at a Florida State or Community College, you may want to consider using the 91tvӰԺ FUSE program, which can assist you in preparing to transfer into your preferred 91tvӰԺ natural science and mathematics program, and also comes with perks like early access to 91tvӰԺ facilities, events and activities.
If you are also interested in pursuing a health professional career, our Health Professions Advisors offer workshops for prospective 91tvӰԺ undergraduate students to inform them about what it means to be a competitive applicant to a health professions program.
You can find the general admissions requirements, application deadlines, and other information on the 91tvӰԺ Admissions Transfer Website. The natural sciences and mathematics admission criteria provided above varies slightly from the 91tvӰԺ Admissions selective major information. Here we have provided some pre-approved alternatives where it is possible for a student to meet degree progression and allow for differences students can have in their academic journey.
