(We must receive official copies of transcripts in sealed envelopes from each school) Use the . Academic Transcript Request Forms to request transcripts from other schools (You may copy this form as needed.)

  • High School: Complete a Transcript Request Form and submit it to the high school from which you graduated. If you have not yet graduated, request that a current transcript be sent now, and a final transcript be sent after your graduation.
  • GED: If you received a GED, contact the Department of Education in the state where you took the test and ask that they have an official transcript of your scores sent to the Admissions Office. Please call the Admissions Office if you need assistance with this.
  • College: If you have been enrolled at another college, complete and submit a Transcript Request Form to each college you have attended. A high school transcript will still be required, even if you are transferring in college credit. If you have an Associate’s Degree or a Bachelor’s degree, then we will not need a high school transcript.

Step 3: TWO AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL ESSAYS & SIGNED ESSAY FORM:
Answer one of the essay statements from each section of the Autobiographical Essays From on a separate sheet of paper. The essays should be typed and double-spaced. Please limit your responses to 500 words or less for each essay. It is important that these autobiographical essays are your own work and are factually correct. You must submit the signed essay form with your Autobiographical Essays, verifying that it is your work.

Step 4: THREE REFERENCE FORMS:

Hand out these forms and the provided Business Reply envelopes to the three people who are referring you, and ask them to send the forms to the Admissions Office. These references cannot come from a family member, and need to have known you for at least one year.

Step 5: ACT/SAT SCORES :
Please have a copy of either your ACT or SAT scores sent to FCC. Our minimum ACT score requirement is 18, and our minimum SAT score requirement is 870. If you have not already taken either of these tests, please arrange to take one of them as soon as possible and have the results sent to FCC. If your test scores are listed on your H.S. transcript, this is acceptable as well. If you are transferring from another college with 12 credit hours or more of transferable credit, you will not be required to submit test scores.

There is no federal or state financial aid available for international students. Florida Christian College has no scholarship money available for foreign students with the occasional exception of missionaries and their families.

FCC is under the authority of the United States Government to have verification of proof of support before it can issue the I-20 form to foreign students.

You must also have money in a local bank while attending school.

Florida Christian College is affiliated with the Independent Christian Churches and Churches of Christ. It is important to have the endorsement of a missionary that is known to the college.
