Non-Degree-Seeking College Student

Eastern Florida uses a convenient online application system. You can pay the one-time, non-refundable $30 application fee online by credit card or in person by cash or check. If paying in person you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to pay the fee by cash or check at a Campus Cashiers office.

EFSC Online Application

Please note that application processing may be impacted by EFSC's closure for Spring Break starting March 14, 2025. Applications received shortly before or during the break will not be processed until the college reopens March 24, 2025 and processing time may be extended based on the volume of applications received. Check your email frequently for your acceptance letter.

For determining residency, the Florida Residency Guidelines, will walk you through the process and required Declaration. This same Declaration is used by non-Florida residents to declare that classification.

Be sure to follow up and submit the residency supporting documents either in person or through our online Student Dropbox. (Don't stress: all the how-to info you need is on that Residency page, plus you can contact the Admissions Team if you have questions).

Because non-degree seeking students must be high school graduates, EFSC requires you submit acceptable proof of a H.S. diploma.

If you need to check on past college courses you may have taken, the Florida Student Hub of Innovative Educational Services, better known as FloridaShines, is a free Florida Department of Education resource to help you plan and track your educational progress. The site has unofficial transcript information for Florida college and university students.

Orientation is mandatory for non-degree students who have not earned an associate degree or higher, first-time students and transfer students, and is recommended for all students. It’s an introduction to life at Eastern Florida.

Access online orientation through the myEFSC Portal with your student email address and password. Once logged in, click the Student Orientation/Titan Preview icon to begin the orientation.

• You must register in person for classes each term at any campus Admissions/Records office. Use the Class Schedule Search tool to find course information.
• Transcripts from prior schools are not necessary and will not be evaluated. However, you must provide proof that you have satisfied the course prerequisite when required. You may take up to 12 credits as non-degree seeking; after that time you must provide transcripts and/or declare a major and meet appropriate program requirements. (Unless you are a Brevard Public School Teacher.)
• Visit the Student Accounts section for information on paying tuition.
• Student ID cards are available at any EFSC Campus Security Office for free by presenting your class registration and a photo ID. This ID also will be your library card and replacing a lost card costs $10.
• A Student Parking Permit is required. Getting the permit involves a two-step process to generate a temporary permit online and then pick up the permit at your campus security office.
• EFSC Bookstores are your source for required textbooks and course materials. Most EFSC courses are automatically part of the Titan First Day Ready program, designed to save students money. At least 30 days before the first day of class each term, the Bookstore will send an email with instructions on how to verify your course materials list, arrange pickup or delivery, or opt out and obtain materials yourself.
