Editorial Style Guide

Between what we say and how we say it, we create a recognizable style that is distinctly Florida Poly’s. That’s our voice. Our goal is simple: develop focused communications that make our distinct brand personality shine through.

Florida Poly uses the Associated Press (AP) Style Guide for all digital and print materials, including all websites. Our goal is to present a consistent and high standard of writing that appropriately reflects Florida Poly’s standard of excellence.

This online guide provides some of the most common style tips as well as Florida Poly specific information such as official names of departments and buildings, abbreviations, and capitalizations.

If you have questions, please refer to the AP Style Guide or marketing@floridapoly.edu.
