Florida Poly requires freshman applicants to submit official results of at least one college entrance exam (SAT or ACT). The writing sections are not required for either test.

Our admissions board will consider your highest submitted section scores from all SAT and ACT test dates. We strongly encourage you to submit your scores each time you take the SAT or ACT.

Freshman Math Requirements

Student success in calculus is required for all programs. We strongly recommend that all incoming students have taken precalculus or higher prior to starting classes at Florida Poly.

Waitlist

Given the number of quality applications we receive, we are not able to admit every student with strong academic credentials. Students placed on our waitlist are neither admitted nor denied and, depending on space, some may be offered admission at a later date.
