Florida State Colleges and Universities: Summer Term Requirement for Undergraduate Students
While visiting Florida universities and colleges, we learned an important piece of information to consider if you are applying to schools in the state system. According to Florida State regulations, “All students entering a university in the State University System with fewer than 60 semester hours credit shall be required to earn at least nine semester hours prior to graduation by attendance at one or more summer sessions. University presidents or their designees may waive the application of this regulation in cases of unusual hardship to the individual.” Therefore, if you attend a state college or university in Florida, plan on spending one summer on campus to fulfill this requirement!
