Transient College Student

This step only applies to transient students who cannot use the FloridaShines system. If you do attend an out-of-state or private in-state school start by filling out EFSC's online application.

EFSC Online Application

• Be prepared to 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 Student Accounts office.
• Be sure to complete the required Florida Residency Declaration Process after submitting your online application, which is required even if you are not a Florida resident.
• Submit a transient letter or letter of good standing from your home institution. This can be mailed to an EFSC Admissions Office using the contact info below or you can submit it using the electronic Student Document Dropbox once you have a log in to the myEFSC Portal where the dropbox system is located.

• While not mandated for transient students, orientation through our easy-to-use online system is recommended for all students. It’s an introduction to life at EFSC and will answer many questions you might have about our support services and processes.
• Registering for classes online is the easiest way to go if you do not have any holds on your account. Visit the Class Schedule for current course listings.
• Check out the Student Accounts section for information on paying tuition and fees by the deadline.
• 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 to park on any EFSC Campus. The annual cost is $40 (plus tax) for a decal that covers Fall, Spring and Summer terms each academic year and $20 (plus tax) for a decal purchased in a Spring or Summer term that covers both terms. 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.
