INTRODUCTION The Florida Counseling for Future Education Handbook is annually updated to provide school counselors and advisors with a comprehensive academic advising resource to guide students with planning for postsecondary education in Florida. This edition includes information and answers to questions about middle and high school reform measures, career planning, Florida s college readiness initiatives, acceleration mechanisms, credit by exam, financial aid, and updated postsecondary programs, degrees, and requirements. Currently, the focus of both Florida and the nation is on higher education and secondary reform. Of particular interest, is the growing need to increase college and career readiness. Guidance counselors are a key resource for providing appropriate advising relating to secondary course selection and postsecondary planning. Data on student course taking patterns in high school and subsequent success in postsecondary education is a useful tool to assist counselors and secondary administrators in future planning. The Florida Department of Education s Office of Articulation, using data collected and reported by the K 20 Education Data Warehouse, produces online college readiness reports, available through the High School Feedback Report and Performance on Common Placement Tests. The latest performance data for the 2008 Florida public high school graduate cohort collected by colleges and universities can be accessed at http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/. In addition to college readiness data, the Office of Articulation, through the Articulation Coordinating Committee, produces advising resources that support acceleration, seamless articulation, and transfer of credit. Listed below are links to these valuable resources: The Dual Enrollment Course High School Subject Area Equivalency List http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/delist.pdf The Credit by Exam Equivalency Chart http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/acc CBE.pdf The Statewide Postsecondary Articulation Manual http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/statewide postsecondary articulation manual.pdf The Interinstitutional Articulation Agreement sample template http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/interinstitutional articulation agreements.pdf. We thank Florida's guidance counselors and academic advisors for their support and continued efforts to encourage students to pursue relevance and rigor throughout their academic experiences. The 2010 2011 Handbook is available online through www.facts.org, along with a variety of other useful guidance tools. Many thanks to all that contributed to the new edition. 1

General Advising 2

FACTS.org: ONLINE STUDENT ADVISING SYSTEM FACTS.org is Florida s Academic Counseling and Tracking for Students, the Florida Department of Education s (FDOE) statewide student advising system. The system enables students to: explore careers, plan their high school courses, track their progress toward graduation, check their eligibility for Bright Futures Scholarships, learn about Florida s postsecondary opportunities, apply online to state universities and colleges, and apply online for state and federal financial aid. FACTS.org Helpdesk: email facts@admin.usf.edu or call toll free at 1 866 324 2618. electronic PERSONAL EDUCATION PLANNER (epep) The epep is an interactive online planner that enables students to map out coursework for every year of high school. Students choose from school specific course options, based on their goals after graduation, such as admission to a university or college, attending a career technical center, or going directly into the workforce. Once a student enters high school, the epep automatically populates the courses in which the students are enrolled and those completed, along with the students grades. Guidance counselors and other educators can access their students planners online and can leave comments. All public middle school students are required to create an epep as part of a Career and Education Planning course in order to be promoted to 9 th grade. The course can be taken in 7 th or 8 th grade and can be a stand alone course or integrated into another approved course. A list of all of the approved courses can be found on the Department of Education website at http://www.fldoe.org/workforce/ced/pdf/approved courses.pdf. The intention of the course is to provide students with the information they need to start planning for their future in a meaningful way, and to help them recognize that the high school courses have relevance for their future education and career plans. In the 2010 2011 school year, schools are required to conduct a review of each 9 th and 10 th grade high school student s epep and assist those who do not have a plan in creating one. This may include students who were previously home schooled, attended private school, or those who transferred from another state. Schools must also meet with parents and inform them about the course curriculum and activities and have the student, parents and counselor sign a printed copy of the epep (per s. 1003.4156, F.S.). The Student Activity System provides counselors with the ability to lock an epep once it is approved to prevent the student from making changes. As of June 30, 2010, almost 60% of 7 th 12 th grade students in Florida had created an epep and over 92% of 8 th graders had done so. Monthly reports on the number of epeps by district and grade level are posted on FACTS.org under Counselors and Educators. FACTS.org creates student epep accounts, assigning Login IDs and Passwords for all public school students in 7 th, 8 th, 9 th, and 10 th grade who have not already created their own. Demographic information is based on school rosters and therefore is automatically matched with the student s FDOE record, eliminating the difficulties teachers and counselors were experiencing when student epep accounts did not mirror the school roster. Educators have access to the Login IDs and Passwords via the Student Activity System so they can provide the information to students, who are prompted to change their Password from the generic one provided to a more secure one of their own choosing. Students creating an epep using this method will not be required to enter their Florida Student Identifier Number (FSIN). Seventh 10 th grade students who take their own initiative and build an epep before being given their assigned Login ID and Password will be notified that an account has been set up for them once the demographic information they enter, including the FSIN, matches their FDOE record. If their information does not match, a second account will be created. The Student Activity System will show the student as having duplicate accounts and the counselor will need to assess which one should be disabled. 3

FACTS.org does not create accounts for students in 11 th grade and beyond, but these students are provided with an automatically generated Login ID as they build their own account. The Login ID and Password is used for the epep and all other FACTS.org functions, including high school evaluations and college admission applications. All students will be asked to answer three security questions that will be used by FACTS.org to assist them should they forget their password and not have immediate access to a counselor or other educator who can look it up for them in the Student Activity System. Please note: The student rosters in the Student Activity System are based on school enrollment received by the Department of Education. The first roster of the 2010 2011 school year will appear in the System in mid October. Detailed instructions on how to create an epep are provided on FACTS.org at Counselors & Educators> Training Services> Resources & Logos> Middle School Career & Education Planning Class Resources: epep Lesson Plan. HIGH SCHOOL ACADEMIC EVALUATIONS The High School Academic Evaluations (HSAEs) provide students with an evaluation of their transcript. The tool compares any public high school student s transcript to state course requirements for graduation, Bright Futures Scholarships, State University System (SUS) admission, and the Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG). The HSAEs show students their grade point average (GPA) and their weighted Bright Futures GPA, as well as met and unmet requirements in each area. Students access the High School Academic Evaluations via the High School Students tab. Counselors can view the students Evaluations in the Student Activity System. ACCESS FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL PERSONNEL VIA STUDENT ACTIVITY SYSTEM Authorized middle and high school educators, guidance counselors, and administrators can access their students' epep and High School Academic Evaluations and view summary information with the FACTS.org Student Activity System. The System requires a Login ID and Password that is assigned through the district. Authorized high school counselors can continue to utilize the Bright Futures System and choose action code "F" to view their students' FACTS.org High School Evaluations. However, epep information is only available through the FACTS.org Student Activity System. To access the Student Activity System select Counselors & Educators tab> Secondary Access: Student Activity System. A Student Activity System Guide, which provides detailed instructions on how to access and use the system, is available from this page. If you do not have a Login ID, please contact your District Guidance Supervisor or the FACTS.org Helpdesk for assistance. As of June 30, 2010, over 5,000 accounts had been created in the Student Activity System. The System menu includes: A) School Roster This provides a school roster matched to FACTS.org student account information. Information is provided one grade level at a time. Student epeps and High School Evaluations (for those students in 9 th grade and higher) can be accessed, as well as listing the district and high school indicated, student ID, grade level, Login ID and Password, the dates the epep was created, last viewed and last updated, the number of credits planned, diploma type, graduation plan, career cluster, and the date the transcript was last updated. The report can be sorted in a number of ways on the screen and it can also be downloaded to Excel. The first roster of the 2010 2011 school year will appear in the System in mid October. Authorized users are able to "lock" epeps. When locked, the student is able to view their epep and High School Evaluations, but is blocked from making changes, such as adding or deleting courses or changing epep settings. The lock on a student s epep may be turned on or off at the district's or school s discretion via the Student Activity System. 4

Students whose records are shaded in the Student Activity System have incorrectly entered their FSIN and they will be unable to access their transcript information until they correct it. This is done via the My Profile Information tab on the epep. B) Students Accounts Not Matching to the School Roster This option shows a list of students who have created a FACTS.org Login ID but are not showing up on the school roster as having done so because the demographic information entered does not match the roster. Students who have miskeyed one of the following: first name, last name, date of birth, or school, will appear on this list. The roster demographic information is listed beside the information provided by the student and the incorrect item is highlighted. Users may review the list and click the appropriate update box(es) to authorize FACTS.org to automatically correct the selected students account(s). The number of students on this list will decrease dramatically with the introduction of precreated Login IDs and passwords, as described in the epep section above. C) Remove Additional Student Accounts This page displays information about students who have created more than one FACTS.org Login ID. Users can evaluate the account information and remove unnecessary accounts from the school roster. One account must remain active. D) School Summary Report This report summarizes the number and percent of unduplicated student epeps created by grade level for the school selected, the percentage with epeps with at least 24 credits planned, and information on graduation plan and career cluster. E) District Summary Report This report summarizes the number and percentage of unduplicated student epeps created by school and for the entire district. It is assessable only to users with an administrative or counselor role. In addition to the ability to download the Student Activity System information to Excel, districts may download the epep Course File from NWRDC. The file represents a complete download of epep planner information including student demographics, settings, and planned courses. Authorized users (typically district MIS personnel) may access the file in the Bright Futures Directory, file name OB.Dnn.FACTS.EPEP.COURSES. The file is updated on the first Tuesday of every month, except in May and June, when it is provided every Tuesday. TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES & MATERIALS The FACTS.org training staff present at conferences throughout the year and schedule training sessions at the district level upon request. To learn about available training opportunities in your area, please visit the FACTS.org "Training Services and Materials" area after clicking on the Counselors & Educators tab. Requests for district training or questions about training can be emailed to FACTS.training@fldoe.org. Materials FACTS.org has a number of educational and promotional materials for educators, students, and parents. In 2010 2011 materials were shipped to district offices for distribution to schools. Items can also be downloaded from Counselors & Educators> Training Services & Materials: Resources & Logo. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1. What exactly is required on epep? The epep is a high school plan. Students establish epep settings and select courses for their graduation plan. Standard diploma students will plan coursework for 24 credits, or more, depending on district requirements. The types of courses planned will vary depending on the student's goals for graduation and postsecondary education. The courses available to select from are specific to each school. 5

2. Can a counselor check to see which students have and have not created an epep? Yes. The FACTS.org Student Activity System provides this information. The Student Activity System requires a Login ID and Password that is assigned through the district. To access the System, select Counselors & Educators> Secondary Access: Student Activity System. A Student Activity System Guide, which provides detailed instructions on how to access and use the system, is available from this page. If you do not have a Login ID and Password for the Student Activity System, you can get them from your District Guidance Supervisor, or other designated contact. A list of designated contacts is provided on FACTS.org on the Counselors & Educators> Secondary Access> Student Activity System: first paragraph link Help with Login. If you need further assistance, please contact the FACTS.org Helpdesk toll free at 1 866 324 2618. 3. Can a counselor modify a student s epep from the Student Activity System? No. Only a student can change that information. 4. Is there a way to block students from making changes to their epep once the plan has been reviewed and signed? Yes. Students can be prevented from making changes by locking their epep. The lock on a student s epep may be turned on or off via the Student Activity System. 5. Are there any resources available to train personnel on how to build an epep and/or facilitate the instruction of the middle school career and education planning course? Yes. Training and specific guidance on how to facilitate the new middle school career and education planning course content is available. For information, please visit FACTS.org, Counselors & Educators> Training Services & Materials for online training modules, to download materials, and to view the training calendar. 6

ROLE OF MIDDLE SCHOOL COUNSELORS IN POSTSECONDARY ADVISING By the time a child is in 6th grade, families should start talking about career interests and postsecondary education options such as career and technical centers, colleges, and universities. Middle school counselors are in an excellent position to help parents and students begin thinking about the important knowledge and skills acquired in earlier years and how these skills may be used in the student s future. Middle school counselors are encouraged to collaborate with the school leadership team, teachers, and others in order to expand opportunities for students to build on current skills and (1) develop effective learner skills and attitudes; (2) explore self interests and the world of work; and (3) pursue more rigorous courses. The challenge for counselors is how to help all students build upon their aspirations and skills to be successful in postsecondary settings. Middle school counselors and educators need to be aware how access to postsecondary education differs for students (especially low income, underrepresented minority groups, or the first generation to attend college) and become involved in making the changes needed to guarantee each child equal postsecondary opportunities and choices. POSTSECONDARY READINESS AND THE MIDDLE GRADES Florida Law Florida Statute (F.S.) sections pertaining to middle school preparation for high school, in part, include the following: Section 1007.21, F.S. (Readiness for postsecondary education and the workplace.), specifies that during the middle grades, students and their parents shall develop a four to five year academic and career plan based on postsecondary and career goals in preparation for entering the 9th grade. Section 1003.4156, F.S. (General requirements for middle grades promotion.), outlines general requirements for middle grades promotion. Section 1003.428, F.S. (General requirements for high school graduation; revised.), includes grade forgiveness policy requirements for middle grades students who take high school level courses for high school credit. Academic Implications The implications for students include the following: The high school grading system includes middle school [s. 1003.437, F.S.]. Promotion from middle school requires three middle school or higher courses in the academic areas of English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and one of the state approved courses (www.fldoe.org/workforce/ced/pdf/approved courses.pdf) in career and education planning to be completed in the 7 th or 8 th grade. Additional considerations for middle school students related to mathematics and science courses include: Successful completion of a high school level Algebra 1 or Geometry course is not contingent on the end ofcourse (EOC) assessment. o Beginning with the 2011 2012 school year, to earn high school credit for Algebra 1, a middle school student must pass the Algebra 1 EOC Assessment. o Beginning with the 2012 2013 school year, to earn high school credit for Geometry, a middle school student must pass the Geometry EOC Assessment. Successful completion of a high school level Biology 1 course is not contingent upon the student s performance on the Biology 1 EOC Assessment. o Beginning with the 2012 2013 school year, to earn high school credit for Biology 1, a middle school student must pass the Biology 1 EOC Assessment. Statewide, standardized EOC assessments in Mathematics and Science will be administered to students based on when the student completes the applicable curriculum (such as Algebra 1 or Biology 1). This means that some students may be required to take more than one statewide assessment for a given gradelevel (e.g. having to take both the Grade 8 Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) 2.0 Mathematics and an Algebra 1 EOC Assessment). High school graduation requirements are based on the school year in 7

which the student enters grade nine. For specific information related to EOC assessments, please refer to the following charts: o Senate Bill 4: 7 year Timeline for Implementation for Ninth Grade Cohorts (http://info.fldoe.org/docushare/dsweb/get/document 5816/dps 2010 127e.pdf) o Student EOC Requirements (http://fcat.fldoe.org/pdf/student EOC Requirements.pdf) o Middle Grades Students and EOC Requirements (http://www.fldoe.org/schools/pdf/mgseocar.pdf) The career and education planning course may be taught by any member of the instructional staff and is designed to help students become aware of the relationships that exist between education and career achievement. Students are introduced to educational alternatives and course options as they prepare for the transition to high school. For more information, visit the Educator s Toolkit on Career and Education Planning at www.fldoe.org/workforce/ced/. The career and education planning course must include the following: - Career planning using Florida CHOICES (www.flchoices.org) or a comparable cost effective program that allows students to assess themselves and explore possible educational and career options leading to the selection of their top Career Clusters. - Educational planning using Florida s online student advising system available at www.facts.org resulting in a personalized academic and career plan (electronic Personal Education Planner or epep). Each student shall complete an epep. The student, student s instructor, school counselor or academic advisor, and the student s parent must sign the epep. [Note: The epep must inform students of high school graduation requirements, high school assessment and college entrance test requirements, Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program requirements, and state university and Florida college admission requirements. The epep must inform students about programs through which a high school student can earn college credit, including Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, Advanced International Certificate of Education, dual enrollment, career academy opportunities, and courses that lead to industry certification. For more information, refer to the section on Florida High School Graduation Options for a Standard Diploma in the Handbook.] Effective for students in grades 6 8 in the 2007 2008 school year and thereafter, grade forgiveness policies apply to students who take any high school course for high school credit and earn a grade of: o C or the grade equivalent of 70 79, o D or the grade equivalent of 60 69, or o F or the grade equivalent of 0 59. Districts must allow the replacement of the grade with a grade of C or the grade equivalent of 70 79 or higher, earned subsequently in the same or comparable course. Any course grade replaced shall not be included in the calculation of the student s cumulative GPA required for graduation [s. 1003.428(4)(d), F.S.]. The implications for middle schools include the following: Each middle school must offer at least one high school level mathematics course for which students may earn high school credit. Each middle school must hold a parent meeting in the evening or weekend to inform parents about the middle grades curriculum and activities. FCAT below Level 3 Implications Students scoring below Level 3 on the Reading or Mathematics sections of the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) must be provided with additional diagnostic assessments to determine the following: o the nature of the student's difficulty; o the area of academic need; and o strategies for appropriate intervention and instruction. The school in which the student is enrolled must develop and implement a progress monitoring plan in consultation with the student's parent. A progress monitoring plan is intended to target instruction and identify ways to improve academic achievement for a student who is not meeting the school district or state 8

requirements for proficiency in reading and math. The plan must be designed to assist the student in meeting the state and district expectation for proficiency and to prepare the student for a rigorous high school curriculum. For each year in which a student scores at Level 1 on FCAT Reading, the student must be enrolled in and complete an intensive reading course the following year. Placement of Level 2 readers in either an intensive reading course or a content area course in which reading strategies are delivered shall be determined by a diagnosis of reading needs. For each year in which a student scores at Level 1 or Level 2 on FCAT Mathematics, the student must receive remediation the following year. Remediation may be integrated into the student s required mathematics course. HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION PROGRAMS Each district school board must provide all students in grades six through nine and their parents with information concerning the three and four year high school graduation options, including the respective curriculum requirements for those options, so that students and parents may select the postsecondary education or career plan that best fits their needs. Middle school counselors help to acquaint students and their parents with information about the high school graduation options including: The four year 24 credit high school graduation program; The three year 18 credit college preparatory program; The three year 18 credit career preparatory program; The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program; and The Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) Program. Middle and high school counselors are integral to the implementation of these requirements as they work with administrators, curriculum specialists, and instructional staff to ensure that all students have the opportunity to design an academically challenging program of study. The graduation requirements are detailed in this Handbook in the Florida High School Graduation Options for a Standard Diploma section. CHALLENGING COURSES HELP STUDENTS ENTER AND SUCCEED IN COLLEGE Students who take Algebra 1 in middle school can enroll in challenging courses such as Chemistry, Physics and Trigonometry in high school. Just as employers want workers who have certain skills, most colleges want students who have completed certain courses. Many of these courses can be taken only after a student has mastered basic coursework. The most important thing students can do to prepare for any postsecondary education is to enroll in the appropriate courses and maintain good academic performance throughout their middle school and high school experience. Middle school counselors play an important role in acquainting parents of entering high school students with high school courses, including the opportunity and benefits of acceleration mechanisms such as Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE), International General Certificate of Secondary Education (pre AICE) Program (IGCSE), Industry Certification programs, and the dual enrollment program. SELECTING A PROGRAM OF STUDY A student's program of study should lead to successful completion of requirements for the student's chosen postsecondary goals. School counselors perform a critical function in assisting students in the development of a comprehensive plan to accurately assess strengths, interests, and preferences that encourage the selection of challenging educational courses. Middle school counselors help students and their parents understand what is included in high school programs of study, the courses that link to a student's academic and career interests, and where to obtain additional information. They may be part of an Individual Educational Plan (IEP) team, helping eligible students with disabilities to address the 9

experiences and services needed to reach their goals. Counselors have the knowledge and skills to provide guidance for students and their parents about including challenging courses in their program of study. TRANSITION TO 9TH GRADE In addition to helping to ensure that middle school students and parents receive guidance and advice to plan for high school, postsecondary learning, and careers, there are important considerations related to transition from middle school to high school. As students enter 9th grade, they need to find ways to establish their place and their autonomy in high school. They often run into roadblocks that can affect whether they develop their own self confidence and direction or rely on other students to direct them. Eighth grade students leave the familiarity of their school and arrive in a new, larger high school environment. For some students, this abrupt change may cause feelings of insecurity and isolation. Incoming 9th graders can perceive high school as an impersonal and unsupportive place and turn to negative behaviors to find fulfillment without the proper information and support. During this time, support from adults is crucial. The following websites provide information on components of effective transition practices and programs: The Center for Comprehensive Reform and Improvement http://www.centerforcsri.org The National High School Center http://betterhighschools.org/webinar/9thgradetransition_resources.asp The National Middle School Association http://www.nmsa.org/aboutnmsa/tabid/76/default.aspx The American School Counselor Association http://www.schoolcounselor.org/ U.S. Department of Education http://www.ed.gov/index.jhtml. HELP FOR PARENTS Some parents, especially those who did not attend or finish college themselves, may worry that they cannot provide their child the guidance and support needed to get ready for college. This Handbook is an excellent resource for helping students and parents learn about higher education options and possibilities. The following areas are particularly important in developing early awareness activities and strategies: The Application Process Career Development Programs and Services College Credit Programs for High School Students Florida's 2 + 2 System Financial Aid Facts and Fiction About College Costs High School Graduation Options and Support Services for Minority and Low Income Students. The information in this Handbook could be included in parent newsletters, the local newspapers' school news section, student handbooks/planners, school websites, and bulletin boards. A series of parent workshops offered throughout the school year could also be developed. Middle school counselors, students, and parents can find more useful information on these topics by checking some of the following websites: ACT for Educators http://www.act.org/edcareer/index.html ACT for Parents http://www.act.org/path/parent/ ACT for Students http://www.actstudent.org/index.html Building Toward a Better Future: A College Planning Guide for Students and Their Families http://www.science.doe.gov/program_offices/wfd/collegeplanguide_web1.pdf Bureau of Curriculum and Instruction (FDOE) http://www.fldoe.org/bii/curriculum/ 10

FLORIDA HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION OPTIONS FOR A STANDARD DIPLOMA FLORIDA LAW 2007 2008 STUDENTS ENTERING GRADE NINE AND THEREAFTER The 2010 Legislature passed Senate Bill 4 that, in part, amends s. 1003.413 (Florida Secondary Redesign Act), F.S.; amends s. 1003.428 (General requirements for high school graduation; revised), F.S.; amends s. 1003.429 (Accelerated high school graduation options), F.S.; creates s. 1003.4295 (Acceleration courses), F.S.; and amends s. 1008.22 (Statewide Assessment Program), F.S. The 2010 Legislature created s. 1003.4295, F.S., which requires each high school to advise each student of programs through which a high school student can earn college credit, including Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE), dual enrollment courses, career academy courses, and courses that lead to national industry certification, as well as the availability of course offerings through virtual instruction. The FDOE s Bureau of Curriculum and Instruction website provides technical assistance related to student and course advising, student progression, and graduation requirements online at http://www.fldoe.org/bii/curriculum/. 24 Credit Program Beginning with students entering grade nine in the 2007 2008 school year, graduation requires successful completion of a minimum of 24 credits, an IB curriculum, or an AICE curriculum to earn a standard high school diploma. Students must be advised of eligibility requirements for state scholarship programs and postsecondary admission. Under this law, s. 1003.428, F.S., graduation requirements for this program are summarized below: 1. Earn passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT or scores on a standardized test (ACT or SAT) that are concordant with the passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT. Beginning with the 2011 2012 school year, the administration of the Grade 10 FCAT Mathematics will be discontinued, except for students who have not attained minimum performance expectations for graduation. In addition, the administration of the FCAT Science at the high school level will be discontinued. Statewide, standardized end of course (EOC) assessments in Mathematics and Science will be administered to students based on when the student completes the applicable curriculum (such as Algebra 1 or Biology 1). High school graduation requirements are based on the school year in which the student enters grade nine. For specific information related to EOC assessments, please refer to the following charts: Senate Bill 4: 7 year Timeline for Implementation for Ninth Grade Cohorts (http://info.fldoe.org/docushare/dsweb/get/document 5816/dps 2010 127e.pdf) Student EOC Requirements (http://fcat.fldoe.org/pdf/student EOC Requirements.pdf) Middle Grades Students and EOC Requirements (http://www.fldoe.org/schools/pdf/mgseocar.pdf) A student with a disability, for whom the IEP committee determines that the FCAT can not accurately measure the student s abilities, taking into consideration all allowable accommodations, shall have the Grade 10 FCAT requirement waived for the purpose of receiving a standard high school diploma if the student: completes the minimum number of state required credits and other district school board courses and program of study requirements does not meet the requirement to pass the Grade 10 FCAT after one opportunity in grade 10 and one opportunity in grade 11. A student with a disability, for whom the IEP committee determines that an EOC assessment can not accurately measure the student s abilities, taking into consideration all allowable accommodations, shall have the EOC assessment requirement waived for the purpose of determining the student s course grade and credits required. 12

Selection of Three Year, 18 Credit Programs Prior to a student selecting a college preparatory program or a career preparatory program, the following requirements must be met: The student and student's parent(s) must meet with designated school personnel to receive an explanation of the relative requirements, advantages, and disadvantages of each program option. The student's parent(s) must provide consent. Each district school board must provide each student in 6th through 9th grade and their parents with information concerning the three year, 18 credit and 24 credit graduation program options, including the respective curriculum requirements for those options, so that students and their parents may select the program that best fits their needs. The information must include a timeframe for each graduation option. Selection of one of the graduation options must be completed by the student prior to the end of 9th grade, subject to the requirements as stated above. Each district school board shall establish policies for extending this deadline to the end of a student's first semester of 10th grade for a student who entered a Florida public school after 9th grade upon transfer or illness. If the student and parent fail to select a graduation option, the student will be assigned the 24 credit graduation program. Three Year Program Assessment and GPA Requirements Students pursuing accelerated three year high school graduation options are required to: Earn passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT as defined in s. 1008.22(3)(c), F.S., or scores on a standardized test that are concordant with passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT (ACT or SAT), as defined in s. 1008.22(9), F.S., and one of the following: o Achieve a cumulative weighted GPA of 3.5 on a 4.0 scale, or its equivalent, in the courses required for the college preparatory accelerated high school graduation option; and receive a weighted or unweighted grade that earns at least 3.0 points, or its equivalent, in course credit toward the 18 credits required for the college preparatory accelerated three year high school graduation option. o Achieve a cumulative weighted GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, or its equivalent, in the courses required for the career preparatory accelerated three year high school graduation option; and receive a weighted or unweighted grade that earns at least 2.0 points, or its equivalent, in course credit toward the 18 credits required for the career preparatory accelerated three year high school graduation. The GPA for a three year graduation program is calculated using the specific 18 credits required to graduate. The school district is responsible for determining which courses to include in the calculation if a student earns more than 18 credits. Weighted grade calculation referred to above shall be applied to those courses specifically listed or identified by the FDOE as rigorous pursuant to s. 1009.531(3), F.S., or weighted by the district school board for class ranking purposes. If, at the end of 10th grade, a student is not on track to meet the credit, assessment, or GPA requirements of the accelerated graduation option selected, the school shall notify the student and parent of the following: The requirements that the student is currently not meeting; The specific performance necessary in 11th grade for the student to meet the accelerated graduation requirements; and The right of the student to change to the four year program set forth in s. 1003.43, F.S. A student who selected one of the accelerated three year graduation options shall automatically be assigned to the 24 credit program set forth in s. 1003.428, F.S., if the student: Exercises his or her right to change to the four year program. 19

Fails to earn five credits by the end of 9th grade or fails to earn 11 credits by the end of 10th grade.

To determine which courses meet State University System admission requirements, please use the Comprehensive Course Table. At least 6 of the 18 credits must be completed in courses that include dual enrollment, AP, IB, AICE, or are specifically listed as rigorous by the FDOE. Algebra 1 EOC Assessment is required, and will count as 30 percent of course grade, if enrolled. Students in grades 6 8, who earned high school credit in Algebra 1 during the 2007 2008 through 2009 2010 school years and have not taken the Grade 10 FCAT Mathematics, must take the Algebra 1 EOC Assessment during the 2010 2011 school year. Students must earn passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT 2.0 Reading (or scores that are concordant with the passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT 2.0 Reading). MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICE The right graduation program for a particular student is the one that best fits the abilities, interests, and goals of the individual student. Families should consider the educational benefits of each program and choose the program that will best prepare the student for his/her postsecondary education or career plan. Here are some things that students and families should consider: What are the student's postsecondary education and career goals? Is the student prepared to make a choice about postsecondary education and possible career paths? If the student is planning to attend a postsecondary institution away from home, does he/she have the mature decision making skills needed to make the informed, safe choices required for independent living? Are three electives enough or is the student interested in taking additional courses to explore his/her interests? Does the student want to participate in sports or other extracurricular activities for four years, or are three years enough? Does the student intend to play college level sports and need to meet National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) course eligibility requirements? Can the student meet admission requirements for postsecondary education institutions of his/her choice by choosing a three year, 18 credit graduation program? Has the family considered expenses and possible financial aid needs that may result from the student starting postsecondary education a year early? Is the student going to compete for scholarships that require certain academic core courses, community service experiences, demonstrated leadership skills, or participation in extracurricular activities? Has the family considered that the student has the option of taking an additional year of academic or technical courses through dual enrollment or AP courses to earn college credit by choosing the 24 credit program? If the student is enrolled in a prepaid college tuition plan, can the family pay off the balance a year early? Families and students are encouraged to contact the school counselor or career specialist on a regular basis during the middle and high school years to get more information about graduation programs, financial aid opportunities, acceleration programs, and college or career plans to help make this important decision. The epep is useful for creating and tracking education and career plans and is available online to all students at www.facts.org. 21

POINTS TO REMEMBER WHEN CHOOSING A GRADUATION PROGRAM Students who choose a three year, 18 credit graduation program may still qualify for acceleration programs (e.g., Advanced Placement, dual enrollment, International Baccalaureate, and Advanced International Certificate of Education) and for a Florida Bright Futures Scholarship if they meet the eligibility and/or admission requirements for those programs and scholarships. Students who choose a three year, 18 credit graduation program can participate in the National Merit Scholarship Program if they take the Practice Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT)/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT) in either the next to last year or the last year they are enrolled in high school. Those who take the PSAT/NMSQT in their last year of high school will be entering competition for awards to be offered as they are completing their first year of college. Students who choose the three year program, complete the 18 credits, earn a cumulative weighted GPA (with individual course credit GPA requirements), and pass the Grade 10 FCAT Mathematics and Reading assessment (or scores on a standardized test that are concordant with the passing scores on the Grade 10 FCAT Mathematics and Reading assessment), graduate at the end of the three years. Students cannot remain in school for a fourth year after graduating from high school. Students will lose a year of potential athletic eligibility by opting for a three year program. Students who choose a three year, 18 credit program will automatically be assigned to the 24 credit program if they do not earn five credits by the end of 9th grade or 11 credits by the end of 10th grade; do not achieve a score of three or higher on the Grade 10 2.0 FCAT; or do not meet credit or GPA requirements by the end of their third year. Passing the Grade 10 FCAT is critical. Students who meet specified requirements for a comprehensive program of study in career education may be recognized with a Florida Ready to Work Credential or designation reflecting one or more Industry Certifications. High school credits awarded before grade nine shall be counted toward the required credits for all graduation programs. The three year, 18 credit graduation programs are only available to students who will receive a standard diploma. Selection of one of the three year, 18 credit graduation program options must be completed by the student prior to the end of grade nine and is exclusively up to the student and parent. A graduation program option form must be signed by the student and parent and kept on record at the school. Students who complete the three year, 18 credit college preparatory program must satisfy minimum academic core credit requirements for State University System admission. Students who choose the three year, 18 credit career preparatory program must complete their electives in career or technical education courses. Students who plan to apply to an out of state or private in state college or university and who are interested in one of the three year graduation programs should contact those institutions as early as possible for specific admission requirements. 22

Students who choose a three year, 18 credit graduation program must be treated equally in all ways with students who choose the 24 credit program, including eligibility for valedictorian or salutatorian ranking, Talented 20, and Bright Futures. 2010 2011 HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION CONTACT INFORMATION Todd Clark, Bureau Chief Bureau of Curriculum and Instruction (850) 245 0423 Todd.Clark@fldoe.org Loretta Costin, Chancellor Career & Technical Education (850) 245 0446 Loretta.Costin@fldoe.org Helen Lancashire, School Counseling Consultant Student Support Services Project (850) 245 7851 hlancash@usf.edu 23

SUPPORT SERVICES FOR MINORITY AND LOW INCOME STUDENTS Counselors play a key role in helping minority and low income students to be competitive and well prepared to meet admission standards for colleges and universities. Early motivation and enrollment in regular and advanced courses that prepare students for college level work are critical to students' success in getting into and staying in college. Counselors can assist by ensuring that students complete courses that prepare them for success in college and connect students with the support systems available to them. Counselors may also serve students with special needs by maintaining a good working relationship with the admission and financial aid officers and other key personnel at the colleges and universities who provide academic guidance and support for these students. The following information will assist counselors in connecting students with the systems that are available to support minority and low income students. TALENTED 20 As part of the Governor's Equity in Education Plan, the Talented 20 program was first instituted beginning with the graduating class of 2000. The purpose of the Talented 20 program is to guarantee admission to students who succeed in their respective K 12 public schools, encourage students to strive for better grades, and pursue rigorous academic courses. State Board of Education (SBE) Rule 6C 6.002(5), Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), Entering Freshman, specifies the requirements for the Talented 20 program. Students eligible for the Talented 20 program are guaranteed admission to one of the eleven state universities and are given priority for the awarding of funds from the Florida Student Assistance Grant, a needs based student assistance program. Please note that while eligible students are guaranteed admission at one of the state universities, they may not be admitted to the campus of their choice. We invite you to view Rule 6C 6.002(5), F.A.C., online at https://www.flrules.org/gateway/ruleno.asp?id=6c 6.002. In order to qualify for the Talented 20 program, students must: Be enrolled in a Florida public high school and graduate with a standard diploma. Be ranked in the top 20% of the class after the posting of 7th semester grades. Take the ACT or SAT (no minimum score is required). Complete all 18 college preparatory credits as specified in SBE Rules. For more information on the Talented 20 program, you may wish to visit the FDOE Talented 20 website at www.fldoe.org/talented20/. COLLEGE REACH OUT PROGRAM The College Reach Out Program (CROP) is a statewide initiative that connects low income and educationally challenged middle and high school students with colleges and four year institutions. Programs vary across the state, and include academic enrichment sessions, test preparation, annual college tour, counseling, educational trips, summer residential experience (on campus), leadership exposure and awards and recognition ceremonies to motivate and prepare students who might not otherwise consider college. Upward Bound Programs consist of three types: Classic (available at many colleges; see contact list below), Veteran's (Miami Dade College), and Regional Centers for Math and Science (Florida A&M University). The purpose of the Upward Bound Programs is to increase the number of students from low income/first generation college backgrounds who enter postsecondary education. The Classic Upward Bound Program provides high school students with academic skill building, counseling, and career planning activities in a model that includes an academic year program and a summer on campus residential program. Continuous contact is provided to students in grades nine through high school graduation. The Veteran's Upward Bound Program targets veterans and provides services similar to that of the Classic Upward Bound Program. Upward Bound Regional Centers for Math and Science offer some academic year activities; the major activity consists of summer residential programs designed to identify and motivate students to pursue postsecondary degree programs in the areas of mathematics and science. Regional Centers draw students from a large geographical area (Florida Center at Florida A&M University recruits from eight southeastern states). 27

POSTSECONDARY COUNSELING FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES Counselors can make a big difference in the lives of students with disabilities as they move on to postsecondary education. Planning for transition into postsecondary education should begin early. This planning process begins at age 14 through the Individual Educational Plan (IEP) process required for students served in exceptional student education (ESE) programs. Involving postsecondary personnel, particularly coordinators for students with disabilities, is an important part of the transition IEP process. Students who are not eligible for ESE but have a disability that significantly impacts one of life s activities may be eligible for a 504 accommodations plan. Unlike the IEP, the 504 plan process does not address transition specifically. However, it is important that counselors and teachers help all students with disabilities understand their rights and responsibilities as well as how their unique needs may be addressed at the secondary and postsecondary levels. In recent years, legislation has been enacted in an effort to improve postsecondary outcomes for students with disabilities, including enrollment in postsecondary education or training. States are required to develop State Performance Plans (SPP) and submit Annual Performance Reports (APR) on associated activities and outcomes. Four indicators in the SPP support secondary transition: Indicator 1 (graduation rate), Indicator 2 (dropout rate), Indicator 13 (transition components in the IEP), and Indicator 14 (postsecondary outcomes). Indicator 14 requires states to report on the percent of youth who had IEPs in effect at the time they left school; or enrolled in higher education or some other postsecondary education or training program, or competitively employed or in some other employment within one year of leaving high school. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) 2004 and Rule 6A 6.03028, F.A.C., require the IEP team to develop measurable postsecondary goals based upon age appropriate transition assessment in the areas of education or training, employment, and, where appropriate, independent living beginning at age 16. IEP teams must also develop measurable annual IEP goals and transition services that will enable the student to meet the postsecondary goals. Another requirement of IDEA 2004 and Rule 6A 6.0331, F.A.C., is that districts provide the student with a summary of academic achievement and functional performance, also known as a summary of performance (SOP), which shall include recommendations on how to assist the student in meeting the postsecondary goals. This requirement pertains to students exiting with a standard diploma or exceeding the age of eligibility for a free appropriate public education (FAPE), but is recommended practice for all students with disabilities exiting high school. The culmination of all transition activities during a student s high school year should result in a meaningful SOP and lead to more students with disabilities accessing postsecondary education and training. Many state and federal laws protect students with disabilities from discrimination. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandate equal access and prohibit discrimination as well as preadmission inquiries concerning disability. Section 1000.05, F.S., the Florida Equity Act, prohibits discrimination in the system of public education. Chapter 6A 19, F.A.C., implements s. 1000.05, F.S., and includes rules addressing, for example, definitions, treatment of students, and educational and work environment. As students begin applying to postsecondary institutions, counselors should be aware of the rights and responsibilities of students with disabilities. Postsecondary students with disabilities have the right to: Participate in educational programs, services, and activities without discrimination. Choose whether or not to self identify as an individual with a disability. Request and receive (if eligible) accommodations for instruction and assessment. Receive information about state and federal laws related to discrimination, including students rights and the grievance/appeal process. Access and, upon request, receive copies of their records. 33

Postsecondary students with disabilities have the responsibility of: Self identifying if accommodations/services may be needed. Providing recent documentation that meets the educational institution s guidelines. Requesting specific accommodations/services. Self advocating throughout the educational process. It is important to note that students with disabilities are not guaranteed the same accommodations or services at the postsecondary institution as provided by the secondary school. For example, personal care attendants are not provided by the college or university. However, educational institutions are required to ensure that students with disabilities access allowable assessment accommodations (and exemptions) if needed on an individual basis. As students consider postsecondary education and career options, it is important for them to understand that accommodations are available to qualified individuals with disabilities in various assessment situations (e.g., career and technical education basic skills tests, certification examinations, licensure examinations). The technical assistance paper (TAP), Basic Skills Tests, Academic Skills Tests for Adults, General Educational Development (GED) Tests, Licensure Examinations, and Accommodations and Exemptions for Students with Disabilities, available at http://www.fldoe.org/workforce/statememos.asp, provides further information. Counselors have a special responsibility in promoting student research on postsecondary education topics such as requirements for admission and documentation of disability. Currently, s. 1007.265(1) F.S., states that Any student with a disability, as defined in s. 1007.02(2), in a public postsecondary educational institution, except those students who have been documented as having intellectual disabilities, shall be eligible for reasonable substitution for any requirement for graduation, for admission into a program of study, or for entry into the upper division where documentation can be provided that the person's failure to meet the requirement is related to the disability and where failure to meet the graduation requirement or program admission requirement does not constitute a fundamental alteration in the nature of the program. Additionally, Florida colleges require that students must earn a standard high school diploma or GED in order to be eligible to enroll in college credit courses. Students pursuing or obtaining a special diploma should be aware that they are not eligible to enroll in college credit courses at the postsecondary level; however, they may be eligible to enroll in career and technical education courses. Postsecondary institutions will often require additional documentation of a disability beyond what is accepted at the high school (e.g., documentation is less than three years old and specifies a diagnosis). It is important, therefore, to encourage students to make early contact with the postsecondary institution's Office of Disability Services to find out what documentation is required as well as what accommodations and services may be provided. Counselors should discuss these issues with students as they formulate their college plans. The Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA) of 2008 authorizes development of inclusive model comprehensive transition and postsecondary programs for students with intellectual disabilities and creates a new national coordinating center. A Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary Program for Students with Intellectual Disabilities is defined as a degree, certificate, or nondegree program that is offered by an institution of higher education; designed to support students with intellectual disabilities who are seeking to continue academic, career and technical, and independent living instruction at an institution of higher education in order to prepare for gainful employment; and includes an advising and curriculum structure. The HEOA authorizes students enrolled in a comprehensive transition and postsecondary program for students with intellectual disabilities to be eligible for federal financial aid such as Pell grants, Work Study, and the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants. Florida is currently engaged in expanding opportunities authorized by the HEOA, including model comprehensive transition and postsecondary programs for students with intellectual disabilities. This will likely necessitate changes to Florida Statutes and SBE Rules. Tips for counselors to assist high school seniors include the following: Encourage the student to visit several colleges/career and technical centers before making a final decision. (The student should meet with the college's office for students with disabilities or the office responsible for providing 34

services to students with disabilities before going through the admissions process. Admissions personnel may not have complete information about how students with disabilities are supported and accommodated.) Make sure that before the student leaves the high school the IEP team invites any outside agency, such as the Florida Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (VR), that can assist with financial and/or professional support. Compile useful information, such as a summary of performance (SOP), including recent assessment information and accommodations used, before the student exits high school and provide this information to the student and the college (with the student s permission). Make sure the student can describe his/her disability and the types of accommodations used/needed in order to be successful in the classroom. Encourage the student to practice self advocacy skills before entering the college program. (Good communication skills, such as initiating a conversation with an instructor about accommodation needs, are essential to securing accommodations in postsecondary education.) Adapted from David R. Johnson (High School Completion and Transitions Teleconference, November 17, 2008) Florida Division of Vocational Rehabilitation The Florida Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) assists eligible high school students with disabilities in transitioning from school directly into employment or postsecondary training for employment. Students must apply for VR services to be determined eligible. Students should apply at age 16 if they are involved in community based work experiences or at least two years before exiting high school. VR counselors determine students eligibility for services and assist students in developing an Individualized Plan for Employment (IPE). The students IPEs list the services needed to achieve an agreed upon employment outcome. VR counselors review each student s records so that they can assist the student in vocational exploration and identify available resources needed to reach the student s employment goal. The VR Counselor may also assist postsecondary institutions in identifying the student s additional needs to participate in training. VR evaluates the income of eligible students to determine if they are required to share in the cost of VR services. Some students or services will be exempt, and the student will not be required to pay toward the cost of those services. VR is currently under Order of Selection, which places all eligible individuals on a prioritized waiting list based on the significance of their disability and the VR application date. Federal law requires that individuals with the most significant disabilities be served first. Anyone can make a referral to VR by contacting the local office available on the VR website, www.rehabworks.org, or by calling the VR Help Line at 1 800 451 4327. Johnson Scholarship The Johnson Scholarship is a need based scholarship that is available to qualified students with disabilities attending a Florida public university. Interested students should contact the university s financial aid office regarding the application process and deadline. The following website provides information on the Johnson Scholarship for students with disabilities: http://www.flbog.edu/forstudents/ati/disabilities.php. Title IV Eligibility for an Institution s Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary Program for Students with Intellectual Disabilities On June 21, 2010, David A. Bergeron, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy, Planning and Innovation, Office of Postsecondary Education, issued a memorandum on Title IV Eligibility for an Institution s Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary Program for Students with Intellectual Disabilities. The Federal Student Aid website has posted the instructions on how to apply to be a Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary Program so that students will be eligible for financial aid. The memorandum and instructions can be found online at http://www.ifap.ed.gov/eannouncements/062110titleiveligibility.html. Where Can I Learn More?

COLLEGE CREDIT PROGRAMS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS Florida provides several acceleration mechanisms that give students an opportunity to simultaneously earn high school and college credit: Advanced Placement (AP); dual enrollment; career pathways; the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program; and the Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) Program. These programs are available free of charge or at minimal cost to the student. The FDOE Office of Articulation provides key advising resources for high schools, guidance counselors, students, and parents to facilitate college readiness, seamless articulation, acceleration opportunities, and ease of postsecondary transition. Guidance counselors are encouraged to carefully review the resources available online at the Office of Articulation website, www.fldoe.org/articulation and at www.facts.org. These resources provide up to date information to: 1) inform districts and high schools about graduate cohort performance measured by pre graduate and post graduate indicators of "college readiness" and 2) assist guidance counselors, students, and parents in the careful selection of courses. These resources provide information to reduce duplication of college credit, support informed decision making, and guide careful and effective academic planning for postsecondary success. The Office of Articulation provides the following key advising resources: Comparison of Florida s Articulated Acceleration Programs, compares program elements across dual enrollment, Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE), and industry certification; The Articulation Coordinating Committee (ACC) 2010 Credit by Exam Equivalencies reflect new exams and revised passing scores, www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/acc CBE.pdf; and The Dual Enrollment Course High School Subject Area Equivalency List, www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/delist.pdf, provides an annually updated list of state approved dual enrollment courses and credit that meet high school subject area graduation requirements. Current law allows for any course in the Statewide Course Numbering System (http://scns.fldoe.org/scns/public/pb_index.jsp), with the exception of remedial courses and Physical Education skills courses, to be available through dual enrollment. The List should not be interpreted as the total number of dual enrollment courses available as there are many courses that count as high school elective credit that are not included on the List. DUAL ENROLLMENT AND EARLY ADMISSION Dual enrollment is a successful acceleration mechanism that allows high school students to pursue an advanced curriculum related to their postsecondary interests. According to the U.S. Department of Education, college credit earned prior to high school graduation reduces the average time to degree and increases the likelihood of graduation for students who participate in these programs. There is also evidence that dual enrollment improves academic performance and educational attainment. Successful completion of dual enrollment courses allows eligible high school students to simultaneously earn high school core or elective credit and postsecondary credit toward a career certificate, an associate degree, or a baccalaureate degree. Through effective dual enrollment partnerships, districts can enhance curricular options available to students, reduce class size, and strengthen relationships with the local college, university, career and technical center, or independent postsecondary institutions. The 2006 A++ legislation clarified statutory language relating to district GPA weighting requirements for dual enrollment courses. The legislation made a strong statement regarding the need to increase access to dual enrollment courses for all eligible students. Specifically, subsections (5) and (16) of s. 1007.271, F.S., now read: (5) Each district school board shall inform all secondary students of dual enrollment as an educational option and mechanism for acceleration. Students shall be informed of eligibility criteria, the option for taking dual enrollment courses beyond the regular school year, and the minimum academic credits 38

required for graduation. District school boards shall annually assess the demand for dual enrollment and other advanced courses, and the district school board shall consider strategies and programs to meet that demand and include access to dual enrollment on the high school campus whenever possible. Alternative grade calculation, weighting systems, or information regarding student education options which discriminates against dual enrollment courses are prohibited. (16) Beginning with students entering grade 9 in the 2006 2007 school year, school districts and community colleges must weigh dual enrollment courses the same as Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Advanced International Certificate of Education courses when grade point averages are calculated. Alternative grade calculation or weighting systems that discriminate against dual enrollment courses are prohibited. As the emphasis on career planning increases, more students are encouraged to select an advanced curriculum that aligns with postsecondary goals. Through collaborative partnerships between school districts and local postsecondary institutions, dual enrollment courses will continue to provide options for students to accelerate and pursue advanced coursework in academic areas. With hundreds of dual enrollment courses available, there is great potential to further engage and motivate students to pursue academically rigorous courses that capture their interests. Student advisement should focus on individual student needs to ensure continued success. Guidance counselors play an important role in communicating accurate information to students and parents, fostering a positive understanding of the merits of dual enrollment, and developing collaborative relationships with college advisors and peers. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What is dual enrollment? Dual enrollment is an acceleration program that allows high school students to simultaneously earn credit toward high school completion and a career certificate, or an associate or baccalaureate degree at a Florida postsecondary institution. 2. What is early admission? Early admission is a form of dual enrollment permitting high school students to enroll in college or career courses on a full time basis on a university, college or technical center campus. As with all dual enrollment programs, students earn both high school and college/career credits for courses completed. Participation in the career early admission program shall be limited to students who have completed a minimum of 6 semesters of full time secondary enrollment, including studies undertaken in the 9th grade. 3. Who is eligible for dual enrollment courses? Students must meet the following eligibility criteria: Enrollment in a Florida public or eligible nonpublic secondary school, or in a home education program. Have a 3.0 unweighted GPA to enroll in college credit courses, or a 2.0 unweighted GPA to enroll in career certificate courses. Pass the appropriate section of the college placement test. Meet any additional admission criteria specified by the postsecondary institution in the district Interinstitutional Articulation Agreement. 4. What courses are available for students to take through dual enrollment? There are hundreds of rigorous courses available to students through dual enrollment. The Bright Futures Comprehensive Course Table, https://www.osfaffelp.org/bfiehs/fnbpcm02_cctmain.aspx, lists dual enrollment courses by academic core areas and career program areas. Approved by the ACC and the SBE, the Dual Enrollment Course High School Subject Area Equivalency List, www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/delist.pdf, provides dual enrollment courses and credits that satisfy subject area requirements for high school graduation. The List is also 39

posted on FACTS.org, under Counselors & Educators> College Credit Programs & Exams. The FACTS.org epep provides a comprehensive list of the dual enrollment courses offered throughout the state within the drop down course selection menu. Any dual enrollment course not on the equivalency list must count, at a minimum, as an elective toward high school graduation. However, districts are not prohibited from granting subject area credit for those courses not included on the list, if appropriate. *Note: Remedial and Physical Education skills courses are not available for dual enrollment. 5. When and where are dual enrollment courses taught? Pursuant to s. 1007.271, F.S., students eligible for dual enrollment shall be permitted to enroll in dual enrollment courses conducted during school hours, after school hours, and during the summer term. Dual enrollment courses can be offered on the high school campus or the local career and technical center, college, state university, or eligible private postsecondary institution. In 2006, House Bill 7087, commonly known as the A++ Secondary Redesign Act, included language that requires district school boards to include access to dual enrollment courses on the high school campus whenever possible. To ensure that dual enrollment courses taught on the high school campus meet the same standards of rigor as those taught on a college campus, the SBE adopted Rule 6A 14.064, F.A.C., in June of 2010 (see https://www.flrules.org/gateway/ruleno.asp?title=community%20colleges&id=6a 14.064). 6. Can a student take dual enrollment courses beyond the 24 credits required for high school graduation? Yes. If a student is permitted to earn high school courses/credits beyond the 24 credits required for graduation, then the student participating in dual enrollment must be permitted to earn more than 24 credits toward high school completion through participation in dual enrollment courses. Similarly, if a student who completes 24 credits mid year (December) has the option to graduate early, then the dual enrollment student must have the same option. 7. Are dual enrollment courses considered rigorous? Postsecondary curriculum taught through college credit instruction or career credit courses is rigorous. All faculty must meet qualification standards to teach college level courses. Eligible students must demonstrate college readiness demonstrated by GPA and college placement exam scores. See Rule 6A 14.064, F.A.C., for specific standards of rigor. 8. How are dual enrollment courses weighted by the public school district? Beginning with students entering grade nine in the 2006 07 school year, the revised language for s. 1007.271(16), F.S., requires districts to "weigh dual enrollment courses the same as Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Advanced International Certificate of Education courses when grade point averages are calculated. Alternative grade calculation, weighting systems, or information regarding student education options which discriminate against dual enrollment courses are prohibited." The 2006 Legislature also specified that, "for the purpose of class ranking, district school boards may exercise a weighted grading system pursuant to s.1007.271, F.S." This new provision relating to GPA weighting applies to all dual enrollment courses, including career education courses. 9. How are dual enrollment courses weighted by state universities for admissions? Beginning with students admitted Summer Semester 2009, Florida Board of Governors (BOG) Regulation 6.006(5) mandates that dual enrollment courses that meet core state university admission requirements in English/Language Arts, Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, or Foreign Languages (as specified in BOG Regulation 6.002(6)(a)(1)) shall receive the same weighting as AP, IB, and AICE courses in the calculation of the high school GPA used for admission decisions. 40

10. Who pays the college tuition for dual enrollment courses? Eligible public school students are exempt from registration, matriculation, or laboratory fees for courses taken through dual enrollment. Tuition is waived. 11. Who pays for textbooks? Section 1007.271, F.S., specifies "Instructional materials assigned for use within dual enrollment courses shall be made available to students from Florida public high schools free of charge." Early admission, listed in subsection (7), represents full time dual enrollment, and the same statutory provisions apply. Students enrolled in home education programs or nonpublic secondary schools must provide their own instructional materials. Instructional materials purchased by a district school board or college board of trustees on behalf of dual enrollment students shall be the property of the board against which the purchase is charged. Students may be responsible for materials that become the property of the individual student, such as an electronic license fee. 12. Do school districts generate full time equivalent (FTE) funding for students in dual enrollment courses? Section 1011.62(1)(i), F.S., was modified by the 2008 Legislature to read: Instructional time for dual enrollment may vary from 900 hours; however, the school district may only report the student for a maximum of 1.0 full time equivalent student membership, as provided in s. 1011.61(4), F.S. Dual enrollment full time equivalent student membership shall be calculated in an amount equal to the hours of instruction that would be necessary to earn the full time equivalent student membership for an equivalent course if it were taught in the school district. Therefore, for a six period day, a dual enrollment course would be reported as 75 membership hours; and on a block schedule, a dual enrollment course would be reported as 90 membership hours. 13. Why are dual enrollment courses not listed in the Course Code Directory? Dual enrollment courses are postsecondary courses identified with a prefix and number by the Statewide Course Numbering System (SCNS). The SCNS course number and title used by the public postsecondary institution for dual enrollment in an area career and technical center, college, or state university course must be recorded in the student's school district records and reported by the district to the FDOE high school transcript database (s. 1011.62(1), F.S.). 14. When a student withdraws from a dual enrollment course, what procedures should the high school follow for entering course credit and grades to the high school transcript? The postsecondary institution records dual enrollment courses and grades to the official postsecondary transcript and provides end of term grade reports. The postsecondary institution specifies dates by which students are permitted to drop a course without penalty, known as "drop/add". If a student drops within this approved timeframe, the dual enrollment course is not recorded to the postsecondary transcript. If the student withdraws after the college "drop/add" deadline, the postsecondary transcript will indicate a "W" or an "F" code for the course(s), depending on the date of withdrawal during the term. Section 1007.235(2)(b)12., F.S., was added by the 2008 Legislature to ensure the district interinstitutional articulation agreement included provisions for: An identification of the responsibility of the postsecondary educational institution for assigning letter grades for dual enrollment courses and the responsibility of school districts for posting dual enrollment course grades to the high school transcript as assigned by the postsecondary institution awarding the credit. SBE Rule 6A 1.09941, F.A.C., State Uniform Transfer of High School Credits, establishes uniform procedures related to the high school s acceptance of transfer credit for students in Florida s public schools. (1) Credits and grades earned and offered for acceptance shall be based on official transcripts and shall be accepted at face value subject to validation if required by the receiving school s accreditation... 41

Public high schools must accept dual enrollment course grades from the public postsecondary institution s official college transcript at "face value," and enter the SCNS course prefix/number and grade, including a "W" code to the high school transcript. High schools may not change or modify postsecondary transcript grades, or change a "W" withdrawal code to an "F" grade on the high school transcript. The following provides guidance related to FASTER transcript instructions: If the high school student withdraws from a college course by the college "drop/add" deadline and the postsecondary transcript does not reflect a course or grade, the high school can enter "NG" for "No Grade Assigned" or omit the entry of the postsecondary course to the high school transcript. If a student withdraws from a dual enrollment course and the postsecondary institution coded the withdrawal with a "W" code, the high school must enter a "W" code for the dual enrollment course to the high school transcript. A new code has been created to allow the entry of a "W" to the high school transcript, specific to dual enrollment courses. This new code is reported in the updated FASTER User Manual. Preliminary Advising High school students must demonstrate "college readiness" in order to participate in the dual enrollment program by passing college placement exams and earning a qualifying high school GPA. During the advising process, it is important to share with both the parent and the student the consequences of poor performance or course withdrawal. High schools should make every effort to accommodate returning seniors who have withdrawn from a dual enrollment course to allow the student to recover the credit needed for graduation through courses on the high school campus or through the Florida Virtual School. Key advising points may include: Students who withdraw from the dual enrollment course(s) must immediately notify the high school counselor in order to facilitate appropriate high school course placement decisions. Students must follow the college protocol for course withdrawal to minimize the reporting of negative information to the postsecondary transcript. Students who withdraw from dual enrollment courses are subject to the limitations of midterm high school course availability and must consider the potential impact on meeting graduation requirements. 15. What course number should be entered for postsecondary courses completed from eligible private colleges, independent universities, or out of state postsecondary institutions? Postsecondary credit earned from private, independent, and out of state postsecondary institutions is recorded to the postsecondary transcript. Students should be advised to submit a copy of the private, independent, or out ofstate postsecondary transcript for high school transfer of credit. After reviewing the postsecondary transcript, counselors must determine the appropriate content area for which the dual enrollment course may satisfy high school subject area credit and enter the course codes as described in the following instructions. The coding information is further explained in the Bright Futures Comprehensive Course Table within the "Spcl Case" hypertext in the "Dup Crse" column. Private College Dual Enrollment Courses Course code "ZZZ9999" is provided for schools to report dual enrollment credits earned at private colleges or universities. Except in the case of science credits (see the two special cases that follow), there is no limit on the number of private college courses for which this code can be used. To distinguish between two courses using the "ZZZ9999" code, enter the course name under "Local Course Title" (Bright Futures on line system) or in the "Course Title, Abbreviated" field (FASTER electronic transcript system), and specify the subject area in which the course should be used. 42

Private College Dual Enrollment Science Courses with Labs The maximum credit awarded for a dual enrollment science course taken at a private college or university will be limited to 0.5 credits, because there is no "ZZZL999" course code to record the lab course required to earn a full 1.0 credit. If code "ZZZ9999" is used, and a school needs to report a full 1.0 science credit for a student completing a dual enrollment science course with a lab at a private college or university, the school should assign course code "ZZZC99A." If the school needs to similarly report a second course for a full credit, the school must use code "ZZZC99B" and code "ZZZC99C" for a third such course. Note: Three course codes have been provided to record science graduation requirements completed through private college dual enrollment science courses for 1.0 credit each. Private College Dual Enrollment Science Courses without Labs Code "ZZZ9999" can be used to report a dual enrollment science course taken at a private college or university where the course did not have a lab component (lecture only). If more than one such lecture only course needs to be reported, the following course codes can be used: "ZZZ999D", "ZZZ999E", "ZZZ999F", "ZZZ999G", and "ZZZ999H." These courses shall be awarded a maximum of 0.5 credit each. Note: Five course codes are provided to record all of the science graduation requirements completed through private college dual enrollment science lecture courses (0.5 credit each). 16. What course codes apply for dual enrollment Science courses taken with a separate lecture and lab, and how does Bright Futures calculate the lab grade and credit? The Bright Futures Comprehensive Course Table (CCT) provides an explanation of the award of credit for the different combinations of science lecture and lab courses. In June 2006, the Office of Articulation, upon the recommendation from the ACC Standing Committee for Postsecondary Transition, amended the identification of a dual enrollment science "corresponding lab" as a lab course with the same three character prefix as the lecture course. Previously, both the three character prefix and the three digit number of the lecture and lab courses needed to correspond. This revision allowed for a corresponding prefix, rather than an exact course number, to match the lecture course and signify 1.0 credit for the Bright Futures calculation. This change was retroactive to the 2005 06 academic year and effective for the summer 2006 evaluations. See the example below: CHMC045 CHM1045 and CHML045 CHM1045 (with no lab) CHML045 (with no course) CHM1045 and CHML211 CHM1045 and a non CHM lab = 1.0 credit = 1.0 credit = 0.5 credit = 0.0 credit = 1.0 credit = 0.5 credit 17. What dual enrollment courses count toward a Bright Futures Scholarship? The Bright Futures CCT, https://www.osfaffelp.org/bfiehs/fnbpcm02_cctmain.aspx, lists all courses considered for state scholarships. To locate the dual enrollment courses on the CCT, scroll down below the red text heading of each subject area list. The CCT provides an online advising resource for identifying courses weighted for Bright Futures Scholarship consideration. The CCT also indicates which of the dual enrollment courses count as a "core" course considered by the State University System (SUS) for admission purposes. 18. Will dual enrollment courses transfer to other colleges and universities? Florida dual enrollment college credit will transfer to any Florida public college or university offering the SCNS course number and must be treated as though taken at the receiving institution. However, the application of transfer credit to general education, prerequisite, and degree programs may vary at the receiving institution. Private and out of state colleges and universities may or may not grant college credit for courses taken through dual enrollment. Transfer policies are at the discretion of the individual institutions. 43

19. Is dual enrollment right for everyone? The dual enrollment program provides an opportunity for students to take challenging courses and accelerate education opportunities. Students who successfully complete dual enrollment courses will save time toward the college degree and save money with free tuition and textbooks. Students should understand, however, that dual enrollment courses are college level courses and the amount of work necessary to succeed in dual enrollment courses may be much greater than in high school courses. In addition, dual enrollment course grades become a part of a student s permanent college transcript and are calculated into the student s permanent postsecondary GPA. It is important to do well in these courses to realize the benefits of dual enrollment. 20. How can school districts expand curricular options available to students via dual enrollment? Section 1007.235, F.S., describes the required elements that must be included in the district Interinstitutional Articulation Agreements that are jointly developed for dual enrollment programs. Through updating the annual Interinstitutional Articulation Agreement with postsecondary institutions, school districts can increase the number of dual enrollment courses available to students. For example, the A++ legislation specifically encourages school districts to offer dual enrollment courses on the high school campus. In addition, the high school grading formula was amended in 2010 to include additional points for student participation and success in dual enrollment courses. The college or university may share faculty members to teach a dual enrollment course on the high school campus or a high school teacher with the appropriate credentials may teach a postsecondary level course at the high school. For a copy of the Interinstitutional Articulation Agreement template or information relating to the dual enrollment program, please contact: Dr. Heather Sherry Florida Department of Education, Office of Articulation Heather.Sherry@fldoe.org (850) 245 0427 DUAL ENROLLMENT COURSE HIGH SCHOOL SUBJECT AREA EQUIVALENCY LIST MAY 2010 The following list presents postsecondary courses taken through dual enrollment that will satisfy high school subject area graduation requirements. Two asterisks (**) signify that all colleges and universities offer or accept this course in transfer as part of their general education (GE) requirement. PSY 012 Introduction to Psychology is also offered or accepted by all institutions as a part of their general education programs, but is a high school elective, and therefore not included on this list. Note: Public postsecondary courses in Florida are considered equal in content if the three letter prefix and the last three digits in the four digit number are the same. They may have different titles, or the first digit of the course number may be different at different postsecondary institutions; however, if the prefix and last three digits are the same, they are considered to be the same course. For example, if you want to find AMH 1050, "American Experience: Institutions and Values" at Tallahassee Community College, look at the list below for AMH 050. Even though the title listed is slightly different, it is considered to be the same course. ELECTIVES Current law allows for any course in the Statewide Course Numbering System, with the exception of remedial courses and Physical Education skills courses, to be offered as dual enrollment. Three credit (or equivalent) postsecondary courses taken through dual enrollment that are not listed below shall be awarded at least 0.5 high school credits (postsecondary courses offered for fewer than three (3) credits may earn less than 0.5 high school credit), either as an elective or subject area credit as designated in the local interinstitutional articulation agreement. Note: Any upper level (3000 4000) postsecondary course that uses as a prerequisite one of the courses on this list that are awarded 1.0 high school credit shall also receive 1.0 high school credit. 44

College level dual enrollment science courses taken without a lab component will be awarded 0.5 high school science credits. Note: Section 1003.43(1)I, F.S., states that high school graduation requirements include successful completion of three credits in science, two of which must have a laboratory component. Regardless of the number of science credits earned through dual enrollment, the requirement of two sciences with a lab component must be met to graduate.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM The College Board's Advanced Placement (AP) Program consists of 33 courses and exams in multiple subject areas offered by participating high schools, including the Florida Virtual School. Students earning a "qualifying" grade on an AP Exam can earn college credit and/or advanced placement for their efforts. More than 3,300 universities and colleges worldwide grant credit, advanced placement, or both to students who have performed satisfactorily on the exams. Most postsecondary institutions grant college credit for AP Exams with a score of 3 or higher. Refer to the ACC Credit By Exam Equivalencies for specific award guarantees, available online at www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/acc CBE.pdf. Studies have shown that students who complete a solid academic core, including advanced courses, are more likely to be successful in college. A 1999 U.S. Department of Education study 1 found that the strongest predictor of college graduation is something students do before they ever go to college: participation in rigorous, college level coursework in high school. The study also showed that the impact of such a curriculum on African American and Hispanic students' college completion rates is particularly profound. Another study, completed in 2003, found strong correlations between AP and college completion. 2 This study showed that 29% of college students who did not take any AP Exams completed a bachelor's degree in four or fewer years, while 45% of students who took one AP Exam completed bachelor's degrees in the same amount of time. An even greater number of students, 61% of those taking two or more AP courses, finished college in four or fewer years. Additional information regarding AP is available online at http://apcentral.collegeboard.com. A web based tool, AP Potential, is available free to Florida high schools administering the PSAT/NMSQT to assist educators in recognizing candidates for AP curricula. This software will help identify students likely to succeed in rigorous academics. If your school does not already have access to this tool, contact the College Board's Florida Office at (850) 521 4900. ACC Credit By Exam Equivalencies for AP Students sit for AP exams after completing the corresponding AP course in high school. Advanced Placement courses are challenging courses designed to parallel typical lower level undergraduate courses. Exams are developed by committees of college and secondary faculty and tested by groups of students in actual college courses to determine appropriate passing scores. Institutions must use the course number listed, unless it would be advantageous to award the student a specific course number with equal credit that satisfies program prerequisites. More information about AP, including descriptions of courses and sample examination questions, is available at http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/controller.jpf. Page 16 of the AP Calculus Course Description, at http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/public/repository/ap calculus course description.pdf describes how to award credit for the AP Calculus BC subscore. The subscore description for the Music Theory exam is available in the Course Description booklet online at AP Central, http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/public/repository/ap08_music_coursedesc.pdf.

Beyond intellectual rigor and high academic standards, strong emphasis is placed on the ideals of international understanding and responsible citizenship. The ideal profile of an International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program student is that of a critical and compassionate thinker, an informed participant in local and world affairs, who values the shared humanity that binds all people together while respecting the variety of cultures and attitudes that makes for the richness of life. The IB Diploma Program is designed to meet the highest standards required of any high school student in the world. Successful completion of the Diploma Program earns the student a diploma recognized for university admission throughout the world and course credit and academic placement at over 1,000 leading colleges and universities in the United States. The IB Diploma Program is a system of syllabi and examinations based on the idea that general education at the postsecondary level should encompass the development of all the main powers of the mind through which the student interprets, modifies, and enjoys his or her environment. 77

The Curriculum The IB curriculum can best be displayed as a hexagon with six academic areas surrounding the core. Subjects are studied concurrently, and students are exposed to the two great traditions of learning the humanities and the sciences. Candidates are required to select one subject from each of the six subject groups. Distribution requirements ensure that the science oriented student is challenged to learn a foreign language and the natural linguist becomes familiar with laboratory procedures. While overall balance is maintained, flexibility in choosing higher level studies allows students to pursue areas of personal interest and to meet special requirements for university entrance. The six groups of study include: Group 1 Language A1 (First Language) including the study of selections from World Literature; Group 2 Language B (Second Language) or second Language A; Group 3 Individuals and Societies (Social Sciences); Group 4 Experimental Sciences; Group 5 Mathematics; and Group 6 The Arts and Electives. Assessment & Evaluation of Student Work Judgments about the quality of students' work depend not only on internal assessment of coursework by school faculty over the four year period, but also on external assessment and evaluation by a worldwide staff of more than 4,700 examiners led by chief examiners with international authority. Unique Characteristics The Diploma Program offers special features in addition to the traditional strengths of a liberal arts curriculum. Theory of Knowledge (TOK) the key element in the IB educational philosophy. Theory of Knowledge is a required interdisciplinary course, intended to stimulate critical reflection upon the knowledge and experience gained inside and outside the classroom. TOK challenges students to question the basis of knowledge, to be aware of subjective and ideological biases, and to develop a personal mode of thought based on analysis of evidence expressed in rational argument. TOK seeks to unify the academic subjects and encourage appreciation of other cultural perspectives. Creativity, Action, Service (CAS) a fundamental part of the diploma curriculum. The CAS requirement acts as a balance to the demanding academic school program. Participation in theater productions, sports, and community service activities encourages students to share their energies and talents. The goal of educating the whole person and fostering a more compassionate citizenry becomes real as students reach beyond themselves and their books. Extended Essay diploma candidates are required to undertake original research and write an extended essay of some 4,000 words. This project offers students an opportunity to investigate a topic of special interest and acquaints students with the kind of independent research and writing skills expected at a university. Successful completion is also a very important part of a student's overall IB score. Award of the IB Diploma The award of the IB diploma requires students to meet defined standards and conditions including: Completion of the required sequence of courses in each of the six groups; Acceptable score on assessments in three or four subjects at the higher level; Acceptable score on assessments at the standard level in other subjects; Completion of an extended essay in one of the IB curriculum subjects; Completion of a course in Theory of Knowledge; and Completion of Creative, Action and Service activities. Students who fail to satisfy all requirements may be awarded a certificate for successful completion of examinations. 78

University Recognition The IB Program is recognized by universities in more than 100 countries. Among the United States universities which have enrolled IB diploma holders are: Carnegie Mellon, Johns Hopkins University, New York University, Dartmouth, MIT, Duke, U.S. Naval, Air Force and Military Academies, Georgetown, Harvard/Radcliffe, Columbia, Brown, Yale, Cornell, Princeton, Stanford, University of California/Berkeley. ALL Florida universities recognize and enroll IB diploma holders. Many IB students are enrolled in special honors programs at universities. Certainly, an IB diploma can offer a student an "edge" or boost a student's acceptance into a university where admittance is competitive. However, other advantages include: In most universities, IB diploma holders receive college credit or advanced standing or a combination of the two; credit for up to a year is not unusual; In Florida, the IB diploma can translate into 30 semester hours in all state universities; and Students who earn an IB certificate in a specific subject are also frequently awarded credit or advanced standing in that subject. The IB Program provides a service, which is unique in its depth, scope, rigor and international emphasis. Sixty eight (68) Florida high schools currently participate in the IB Diploma Program. Frequently Asked Questions The following questions and answers were developed to provide an additional resource for parents and students to learn more about how the Diploma Program has been implemented by schools in North America and the Caribbean. For additional information on IB, please contact the IBNA office in New York at (212) 696 4464, Vancouver at (604) 733 8980, Toll Free at 1 866 VAN IBNA, or by email at ibna@ibo.org. 1. How is the Diploma Program different from other pre university academic programs? The Diploma Program is a comprehensive and balanced two year curriculum and assessment system that requires students to study courses across all disciplines. Within this structured framework, the Diploma Program provides a great deal of flexibility, accommodating student interest and abilities. Through careful subject selection, students may tailor their course of studies to meet their needs. Regardless of the subject selection, all students will explore the connections between the six major subject areas, study each subject through an international perspective, will reflect critically on what it means to be a "knower," pursue one subject in great detail through independent research, and have the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills in local and community outreach. Assessment of student achievement happens in a variety of ways throughout the course of the two year program. It includes assessment of the student's work both by outside examiners as well as by the students' own teachers. All assessment undergoes careful review and moderation to ensure that a common, international standard is applied equally to the work of students around the world. For these reasons, the IB Diploma is recognized by colleges and universities around the world as a university entry credential. Among North American colleges and universities, the IB Diploma is recognized as a superior education, preparing students to succeed at postsecondary institutions. 2. Is a lot of extra homework involved in the Diploma Program? IB courses are typically more challenging than regular high school courses, so students may be asked to do more homework. The challenge, however, is not always in the amount of homework assigned; rather it is in the quality of the assignments and the extent to which students engage those assignments. The added benefit here is that students take greater responsibility for their own learning while they learn the valuable skills of time management and organization. Diploma students do not have to forego other important parts of high school life. They may still remain involved in sports, student government, clubs, theater, music, community events, and other extra curricular 79

activities. Such activities are incorporated into the Diploma Program through the "CAS" (Creativity, Action and Service) requirement. 3. The IB Diploma Program sounds like a lot of extra work. What are the advantages of enrolling in an IB program? Students with IB Diplomas, who now attend universities, report that their involvement with IB has given them the tools needed to succeed at a university and to make the most of their postsecondary education. In particular, students comment on their sense of preparedness, self confidence, research skills, ability to manage their time, and willingness to be actively engaged in their own learning. More importantly, they have developed a sense of the world around them, their responsibility to it, and the skills with which to embrace the complexities of life. The IBO often employs a variety of phrases to describe these traits and abilities: "learning how to learn"; "life long learners"; "critical and compassionate thinkers"; and "informed participants in local and world affairs." 4. How does the IBO' s Diploma Program compare with The College Board's Advanced Placement (AP) Program? Both programs provide students with rich and challenging curricula. Both programs enjoy national and international college and university recognition. The College Board and the IBO issued a joint publication in 2003, "IB & AP" which compares and contrasts both programs. A copy can be found on the IBNA regional pages of the IBO website under "Diploma Program." To decide which program is right, students are encouraged to compare their own interests, abilities, and goals with the requirements of both programs. The local school's AP and IB program coordinators should be able to assist students in reaching their decision. 5. What preparation do students need in order to succeed in the Diploma Program? Students prepare for the Diploma Program in a number of ways. Many IB schools have created "pre IB" programs designed to assist students in developing a solid background in such subjects as languages and mathematics. Another excellent preparation for the Diploma Program is the IBO's Middle Years Program, which, besides providing a solid academic foundation, helps students develop a sense of connection between subject areas. 6. Can students take individual IB courses or do they have to study the whole Diploma? Yes, students can take individual IB courses; however, the strength of the IB Diploma Program is in the Diploma itself, and schools are expected to promote the Diploma. Students who enroll in individual courses will receive an IB certificate noting the courses they took and the grades they earned. 7. When do IB students begin taking IB courses? The IB Diploma Program encompasses only the final two years of the secondary school sequence. In North America, this generally refers to grades 11 and 12, although in some schools it refers to grades 12 and 13. These are the only years in which students are permitted to take IB courses. However, to help prepare students for the two year IB Diploma Program, some schools may enroll students in their locally developed, "pre IB" programs for the high school years leading up to the final two years. Although only the last two years make up the actual IB Diploma Program, schools often refer to the entire three or four year sequence (pre IB plus IB years) as the "Diploma Program". 8. How many IB exams are there and when do students take them? The IBO offers curriculum and exams in over 50 different courses for schools. Generally, students can only sit for exams in courses offered by their IB authorized school; a typical IB Diploma Program in North America offers between 12 15 different IB courses. A student pursuing the full IB Diploma will take six IB exams, including one literature course taught in the student's native language, one foreign language, one social science, one experimental science, one math, and one arts course. A second social science, a second experimental science, or a third language can replace the arts course. Of the six exams, three are completed at the standard level (after a minimum of 150 teaching hours) and three are completed at the higher level (after a minimum of 240 teaching hours.) 80

IB students are expected to take their examinations at the conclusion of the two year Diploma Program. However, the IBO permits students to take one or two standard level examinations at the end of the first year of the Diploma Program. The remaining exams are taken at the conclusion of the second year of the Diploma Program. Higher level exams can only be taken at the end of the second year. In many schools, all examinations are taken in the final year. 9. Can I take an IB exam without taking the IB course in that subject? No. Part of the student' s final IB grade comes from work done in the classroom so it is impossible to take an IB exam without having participated in the IB course in that subject. 10. Does the IB Diploma Program satisfy my state or provincial requirements? Students who succeed in receiving the IB Diploma will meet the local high school's graduation requirements and, therefore, will receive the local high school diploma. Even if students fail to satisfy all of the IB Diploma requirements, they will generally have met the school's requirements to receive the local high school diploma. In some cases, students who participate in the IB Diploma Program will also fulfill the requirements of their state's standards examinations or their province's curriculum and examination. Please contact the North American office of the IBO for a list of which states or provinces have accepted the IB Diploma as having met their expectations. 11. May I take IB examinations even if I am not attending an IB school? No. The IBO permits only students enrolled in and attending IB authorized schools to participate in an IB program and take IB examinations. 12. How can I enroll in the IB program? Each school establishes its own student enrollment policies. We encourage you to contact your school's IB Diploma Program coordinator to learn how to enroll your child. You can find the names and addresses of authorized schools on the IBO website at www.ibo.org. Click on "IB schools directory". 13. Can students with special needs participate in an IB program? The IBO has published the established policies for accommodating students with special needs. This publication is available from the publications department website at www.ibo.org/ibo/index.cfm/en/ibo/services/publications. Schools are asked to notify the IBO of participating students identified as having special needs. This is especially important at the time student learning plans are being developed. 14. Does the Middle Years Program lead directly to the Diploma Program? The IBO Middle Years Program (MYP) is an excellent preparation for the Diploma Program. Many of the concepts, program elements, and the underlying philosophy found in the MYP are consistent with those found in the Diploma Program. Nevertheless, the MYP is not a prerequisite. Indeed, schools and school districts might not offer both the MYP and Diploma Program. Further, because schools and school districts establish their own enrollment criteria for participating in the Diploma Program, a student's prior involvement with the MYP is not a guarantee of entry into the Diploma Program. 15. Can students transfer from one Diploma Program school to another? Yes, but while the Diploma Program itself is the same from school to school, the subject choices available to students will vary. Economics may be offered at one school, while another offers History of Europe; Language B German may be the only option at one school, while another may have five different Language B options none of them German! For this reason, families are encouraged to contact the Diploma Program coordinator at the school in the area where they plan to relocate. 16. What do colleges and universities think about the Diploma Program? Colleges and universities throughout North America view the IB Diploma Program as providing outstanding preparation for university work. Additionally, many of the selective institutions have established policies that 81

recognize the work students have done. Some universities also offer scholarships to IB graduates. We encourage you to visit the University and Government page of the IBO website: www.ibo.org/ibo/goto/universities. There you will be able to research the IB recognition policies of postsecondary institutions throughout the world. 17. Can I earn college credit for IB even if I do not earn the full IB diploma? Yes, as of December 2005, according to the SBE Rule/BOG Regulation 6A 10.024, F.A.C., students who earn passing scores for IB exams are awarded college credit according to the equivalencies determined by the ACC. Refer to the 2010 ACC Credit By Exam Equivalencies for specific awarded guarantees available at http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/acc CBE.pdf. 18. In taking difficult courses, do students' chances improve for qualifying for scholarships and admission to universities? At a time when increasing numbers of college and university applicants are presenting equally impressive GPAs or percentages, admission officers must look for other evidence that the student will succeed in the challenges of the new academic environment. Admission officers look for factors such as the quality of the courses represented on the transcript, the balance of courses across all disciplines, the record of the student's research abilities, and the details of school and community involvement all requirements of the Diploma Program. Research conducted at several North American universities report that IB Diploma holders do enjoy success in their postsecondary studies, often earning higher grades than their colleagues. Increasingly, universities are actively recruiting IB students by offering enhanced recognition or scholarships for successful IB work. 19. Does an IB Diploma allow students to go abroad to a university? Yes, in many cases. One of the founding ideals of the Diploma Program was to establish an internationally recognized system of curriculum and assessment that would be accepted by universities and ministries of education around the world. The Diploma Program is accepted by universities in 102 countries. We encourage you to visit the University and Government page of the IBO website: www.ibo.org/ibo/goto/universities. There you will be able to research the IB recognition policies of postsecondary institutions throughout the world. 20. How do I send a transcript of my IB results to a college or university? Students who have completed IB examinations are encouraged, and often required, to request that a special IB transcript of their results be sent to the North American college or university they plan to attend. Their Diploma Program coordinator should file a request on their behalf while they are still high school students. Transcripts requested by current IB students in this way are free. After leaving the secondary school or high school, students may write directly to the North American office of the IBO in New York and request a transcript of results. The letter should include the student 's name, IB student code number, the IB high school they attended, the year(s) in which examinations were taken, and where the transcript should be sent. A fee is charged for transcripts requested in this way. A check or money order, made out to IBNA, of US$10 or CND$15 should accompany this request. For more information about transcript requests, please call the IB North American office in New York City at (212) 696 4464, or send an email to transcripts.ibna@ibo.org.

ADVANCED INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATE OF EDUCATION DIPLOMA The Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) Diploma program is administered and assessed by University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE), a not for profit department of the world renowned University of Cambridge in the UK. CIE offers a wide range of academic and vocational qualifications in more than 150 countries. AICE is an international pre university curriculum and examination system, which emphasizes the value of broad and balanced study for academically able students. Its strengths lie in the flexibility and structure of the curriculum encouraging in depth, working knowledge of each subject, and essay based examinations of knowledge and skill mastery. AICE courses are equivalent to those offered at U.S. university freshmen level or beyond. Routes to the AICE Diploma are extremely flexible and offer students the opportunity to tailor their studies to individual interests, abilities, and future plans within an international curriculum framework. The AICE program was piloted and studied by the Florida Department of Education for four years in three Florida school districts and since 2001 has been approved for use in any Florida school district looking for an inexpensive, flexible advanced academic program for grades 11 and 12. In order to offer these and other CIE assessments, schools must register with CIE as Examination Centers. 84

Pre AICE Education IGCSE The optional pre AICE curriculum program, called the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE), was developed in 1985 to meet the need for an internationally focused curriculum appropriate for a wide range of student ability. IGCSE is suitable for grades 9 and 10 and features over 50 subjects with end of course, international criterionreferenced, externally assessed examinations. While schools offering AICE subjects are not required to also offer IGCSE courses, students are expected to have mastered the IGCSE level of study and skills in a subject before beginning an AICE subject course. Most IGCSE subjects are offered at two levels: extended and core. The extended level is for students planning to progress to AICE or other college level coursework in grades 11 and 12. The core level of IGCSE is suitable for a wider range of ability student. Students at the core level may find during their course of study that they are actually able to move to the higher, extended level of IGCSE study and continue on to the AICE program. This possibility opens doors for previously unidentified advanced students. Pre AICE Education Lower Secondary and Primary Education For middle schools, CIE offers the Cambridge Lower Secondary three year curricula for three subjects, Math, Science and English, with externally written formative (Progression) and summative (Checkpoint) assessments. In addition, the Cambridge Primary Program curricula, formative progression, and summative achievement assessments in Math, Science and English may be used starting in the second grade. Skills development and assessment The Primary, Lower Secondary, core and extended levels of IGCSE, Advanced Subsidiary (AS) and Advanced (A) Levels in AICE all emphasize the development of higher order thinking skills, oral skills, writing skills, problem solving, real world applications, independent investigative skills, teamwork, and international understanding. Assessment methods include written examinations, laboratory practicals for the science subjects, oral and listening tests for the languages, and coursework projects. These examination papers are sent to Cambridge for grading. While teachers are free to develop their own lesson plans based upon AICE subject syllabi, the variety of CIE assessment methods promotes the use of all these methods in the classroom. The Advanced International Certification of Education Curriculum for High School Diploma Section 1003.428, F.S., effective in 2007 08, defines the revised options for earning a high school diploma states that graduation requires successful completion of either a minimum of 24 academic credits in grades 9 12, an IB curriculum, or an AICE curriculum. The components of the AICE curriculum that meet this requirement are as follows: AICE subjects Within AICE, there are over 50 subjects from three curriculum areas: 1. Mathematics and Sciences 2. Languages 3. Arts and Humanities. Most subjects may be studied either at the A Level, which has been offered worldwide for over 50 years, or at the AS Level. A Level examinations require two years (360 hours) of study in a subject while AS Level examinations cover the first year (180 hours) of the two year A Level syllabi. Students are allowed to choose specific subjects and levels of study for each. It is possible to take the AS Level examination one year and then continue study in that subject and take the remaining examination papers (called A2) required for an A Level examination the following year. Alternatively, students may opt to wait until after the second year of study to take all the examination papers at the A Level. Other students may choose 85

to study a subject for a year and be assessed only at the AS Level and then select a different subject to study and be assessed at the A Level the following year. Completion of the AICE curriculum requires students to complete six AICE courses and take the examinations for each with at least one course and examination from each of the three subject areas: Mathematics & Sciences, Languages, and Arts & Humanities. In the AICE Diploma qualification scheme, passing AS Level examinations earns one credit and each passing A Level examination counts for two credits. In addition, there is a Research Project option worth one credit, which requires a student to write two essays of 3,000 to 3,500 words each from two different subjects for which AS or A Level examinations are taken. Students pursuing a full AICE Diploma must earn a total of six credits and include at least one subject examination from each of the three curriculum areas at either AS or A Level. The AICE Diploma is awarded at Distinction, Merit or Pass level depending on the passing grades earned on the AICE subject examinations. For AICE exams, the CIE passing letter grades range from A to E with A being the highest. The lowest passing grade of E is equivalent to a US grade of C or a 3 on an AP examination. Students who do not qualify for an AICE Diploma will receive AS or A Level General Certificate of Education (GCE) subject certificates for the subject examinations passed. Students who complete the AICE curriculum will be provided with the best possible foundation for advanced postsecondary studies anywhere in the world. AICE Exams and College Credits Both AS and A Levels are considered college level courses of study and students passing these examinations with a Cambridge grade of E or higher may receive up to 45 hours of college credit or advanced standing based on their scores in these examinations from universities throughout the United States and all public universities and colleges in Florida. Credit is typically awarded based on each subject and examination grade earned. Refer to the 2010 ACC Credit By Exam Equivalencies for specific awarded guarantees available at http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/acc CBE.pdf. AICE Diploma and Curriculum completion to qualify for Florida Bright Futures Scholarships Students who have earned an AICE Diploma and completed an approved 75 hour community service program automatically qualify for the Florida Academic Scholars Award from the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program. Students who complete the AICE curriculum with best composite score of 1270 SAT or 28 ACT and 75 hours of community service will also receive the Florida Academic Scholars Award. Students who have completed the AICE curriculum with best composite score of 970 SAT or 20 ACT will receive the Florida Medallion Scholars Award from the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program.

COLLEGE LEVEL EAMINATION PROGRAM (CLEP) CLEP is a College Board program that offers students of any age the opportunity to earn college credit by earning qualifying scores on any one or more of 33 examinations. CLEP exams provide an opportunity for high school students to earn college credit in subject areas for which no AP Exams are available, such as Sociology, College Algebra, Accounting, or Precalculus; or for which your high school does not yet offer an AP course. CLEP exams do not relate to a specifically designed college level course taught in high school. Rather, CLEP exams test mastery of college level material acquired through a variety of ways such as through general academic instruction, significant independent study, or extracurricular work. Typically, CLEP candidates study on their own for the examinations. Each exam is approximately 90 minutes long and, except for English Composition with Essay, is comprised of multiple choice questions; however, some exams do have other types of questions. Students obtain their score report upon completion of the exam, except for English Composition with Essay (students receive a score report after the essay has been graded, usually two to three weeks after the test date). Postsecondary institutions grant three to 12 college credits for each CLEP exam passed. Refer to the 2010 ACC Credit By Exam Equivalencies for specific awarded guarantees available at http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/acc CBE.pdf. No high school credit is awarded for CLEP exams. Over 2,900 colleges and universities have CLEP credit granting and/or placement policies. CLEP exams are administered year round on computers at over 1,500 college test centers. The fee for each CLEP exam is $72. Most test centers charge an administration fee, usually $15 to $20. A searchable list of all test centers is available at http://apps.collegeboard.com/cbsearch_clep/searchcleptestcenter.jsp. Students must visit the website at http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/clep/reg.html for information about registration, scheduling, and fees. For additional information about CLEP, please contact the College Board's Florida Office at (850) 521 4900 or email clep@collegeboard.org.

SEAMLESS TRANSITION WITHIN FLORIDA FLORIDA'S 2+2 SYSTEM Many students begin their college education in the Florida College System, and plan to transfer to pursue a bachelor's degree at one of Florida's public or independent four year colleges or universities. Many of the juniors and seniors in the State University System (SUS), as well as many students attending independent four year colleges and universities, began their postsecondary work at a Florida College. Florida is nationally recognized for its highly effective articulation between and among institutions. For instance, in Florida's 2+2 System, students: Can complete the two year Associate in Arts (AA) degree at a Florida College. Are guaranteed admission with an AA to at least one of the SUS institutions. Can transition to a four year institution to complete the baccalaureate degree. STATE UNIVERSITY TRANSFER ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Although completion of a Florida College System AA degree guarantees admission to the SUS, it does not guarantee admission to the institution of choice or to all programs at all universities. Common prerequisite courses have been identified for more than two hundred university baccalaureate degree programs across all public institutions. Additionally, some degree programs are designated as limited access programs because their admission requirements are more selective than an institution's general admission requirements. These more stringent requirements may include a higher GPA and/or test scores, or auditions and/or portfolios. In such programs, selection for admission is competitive. Students should work with college counselors to make sure they take the required courses and meet other criteria for entry into a university program of choice. The selection and enrollment criteria for limited access programs have been published in institutional catalogs, counseling manuals, and other appropriate documents. ARTICULATION AGREEMENTS Statewide Articulation Agreement The Statewide Articulation Agreement provides for the seamless transfer process between and among Florida postsecondary institutions. This agreement ensures that if a student completes the AA degree, admission to at least one of the SUS institutions is guaranteed. It protects the transfer of equivalent courses and the general education program satisfactorily completed by students during their freshman and sophomore years at Florida public institutions. Additional information about statewide articulation can be found online at http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/pdf/statewide postsecondary articulation manual.pdf. Gold Standard Career Pathways The SBE approved Statewide Career and Technical Education Articulation Agreements which are based on industry certifications. This supports the Department s Next Generation Areas of Focus effort Number 3 to expand opportunities for postsecondary degrees and certificates. These agreements are intended to be a minimum guarantee of articulated credit and do not preclude institutions from granting additional credit based on local agreements. Additional information can be found at http://www.fldoe.org/workforce/dwdframe/artic_indcert2aas.asp. Independent Colleges & Universities of Florida Agreement The Florida College System has an articulation agreement with the Independent Colleges and Universities of Florida (ICUF). The agreement establishes the provisions for the transfer of AA degree students into private colleges and universities. It guarantees that Florida College System AA degree students will enter as juniors, receive at least 60 credit hours toward their bachelor's degree, and receive recognition for the general education core completed at the Florida College System institution. Please access www.facts.org to view a list of the participating independent colleges and universities that have recognized this agreement. 91

GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS Florida also has a general education agreement. The state's 36 hour general education program is designed to introduce college and university students to the fundamental knowledge, skills, and values that are essential to the study of academic disciplines. General education requirements include courses within the subject areas of communications, humanities, mathematics, natural sciences, and social sciences. Each institution develops its own general education program, but the statewide general education agreement stipulates that public universities, Florida colleges, and those participating ICUF institutions cannot require students to take additional general education courses if they have already successfully completed a general education sequence at another public institution. FLORIDA STATEWIDE COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM Florida's Statewide Course Numbering System (SCNS) is a classification system for courses offered at public universities, Florida Colleges, career and technical centers, and selected non public institutions. Institution courses are assigned by faculty discipline coordinators to appropriate discipline areas and course numbers. A course is identified by a prefix, level digit, course number, and lab code. The prefix is a three letter alphabetic acronym or abbreviation representing a broad content area. The level digit represents pre college, or the year in college the course is generally taken. 0 = College preparatory or vocational 1 2 = Lower level undergraduate courses 3 4 = Upper level undergraduate courses 5 9 = Graduate and professional courses A three digit course number represents the specific content of the course. The lab code is used to indicate that the course is a laboratory, which may be taken with a correspondingly numbered lecture or that a laboratory component is included in the course. L = Laboratory course C = Combination lecture/laboratory The following is an example of a course identifier: Prefix Level Digit Course Number Lab Code ENC 1 101 In this example, ENC 1101 is Freshman Composition I within the English Language and Literature discipline. The course is a lecture only, with no laboratory component. The SCNS facilitates the transfer of students among Florida's postsecondary institutions. Courses that have the same academic content and are taught by faculty with comparable credentials to faculty at receiving institutions are assigned the same prefix and number and considered equivalent courses. By Florida law, an institution accepting a transfer student from another participating institution must award credit for equivalent courses at the receiving institution. Credit awarded in transfer must satisfy the requirements of the receiving institution on the same basis as credits earned by native students. Excluded from this guaranteed transfer are: 1. College preparatory and vocational preparatory courses 2. Applied courses in the performing arts (dance, interior design, music, studio art, theater) 3. Clinical courses in health related areas 4. Skill courses in Criminal Justice 5. Graduate courses 6. Courses with the last three digits ranging from 900 999 7. Courses not offered at the receiving institution and 8. Courses offered at non regionally accredited institutions prior to the established transfer date. 92

TRANSFER STUDENT BILL OF RIGHTS Students who graduate from a Florida College System institution with an AA degree are guaranteed the following rights under the Statewide Articulation Agreement (SBE Rule/BOG Articulation Resolution 6A 10.024, F.A.C.): Admission to one of the eleven state universities, except to limited access programs (see "State University Transfer Admission Requirements" above). Acceptance of at least 60 semester hours by the state universities. Adherence to the university degree/program requirements, based on the catalog in effect at the time the student first enters a Florida College System institution, provided the student maintains continuous enrollment. Transfer of equivalent courses under the SCNS. Acceptance by the state universities of credits earned in accelerated programs (e.g., CLEP, AP, Dual Enrollment, Early Admission, IB, and AICE). No additional General Education Core requirements. Advance knowledge of selection criteria for limited access programs. Equal opportunity with native university students to enter limited access programs. **NOTE Students earning an AA degree at a Florida College System institution are guaranteed admission with 60 semester hours into the SUS. However, admission into a specific program at a given university is not assured: Some degree programs may include additional admission requirements. These programs are referred to as "limited access" programs and These more stringent requirements may include a higher GPA and/or higher test scores, additional courses or prerequisites, or auditions and/or portfolios. Should a guarantee be denied, students have the right to appeal (see "How to Appeal an Admission or Transfer Difficulty" below). Each state university and college shall make available established appeal procedures through the respective articulation officers. ARTICULATION COORDINATING COMMITTEE The Articulation Coordinating Committee (ACC) is responsible for recommending polices to ensure that students can move easily and efficiently from one Florida institution to another and from one education level to the next. It includes representatives appointed by the Commissioner of Education from the Florida College System, state universities, private colleges and universities, public and non public schools, and career and technical centers. The ACC advises the SBE and the BOG on potential resolutions to statewide transfer policy issues. HOW TO APPEAL AN ADMISSION OR TRANSFER DIFFICULTY Prior to contacting the FDOE, the student should pursue all available appeal options at the postsecondary institution level. The student should keep a copy of all correspondence and a log of all telephone contacts. If the denial is upheld at the postsecondary level and there is still a question of potential violation of the Articulation Agreement, the student may contact the Office of Articulation for assistance.

Financial Aid Financial Aid 94

FINANCIAL AID HOW TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL AID Paying for college is not always easy. College costs rise each year and many students and their families need some form of financial assistance to help pay these costs. The following suggestions will help facilitate the financial aid process. Students should contact their high school guidance counselor to inquire about federal, state, and other sources of student assistance programs. Students should complete the Initial Student Florida Financial Aid Application, available online at www.floridastudentfinancialaid.org, to be considered for State of Florida student financial aid programs, including the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program. Select State Grants, Scholarships & Applications to access this application which opens on December 1, 2010 for 2011 12 academic year funding. Students should contact the college/school they want to attend and request a financial aid application packet. The packet will provide them with information about the financial aid programs the school offers and the forms they will need to complete. Each college will request that students complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), available online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Some colleges will also require completion of other forms. Be sure to contact the college to inquire about other forms that the financial aid office may require. Application processing can take four weeks to four months from the date the completed forms are mailed before the student is notified of his/her award. If possible, students should apply for financial aid in January or February before the academic year they plan to begin college. A late application may reduce the amount of money the student ultimately receives. The early application date ensures students a better chance of being considered for all available programs. Some programs, however, such as the Federal Pell Grant and the Federal Stafford Loan, are open for application throughout the year. TYPES OF FINANCIAL AID Financial aid is money provided by various agencies (federal, state and local governments, public and private postsecondary institutions, community organizations, and private corporations or individuals) to help students meet the costs of attending college. It includes gift aid (grants and scholarships) and self help (loans and student employment). Scholarships are based on academic or athletic achievement, but financial need may also be considered. Scholarships are considered gift aid because they do not have to be paid back. Scholarships are awarded by states, institutions, departments, private companies, and individuals. Grants are gift aid awarded to students who demonstrate financial need. Grants do not have to be repaid. Student loan programs offer long term, low interest educational loans, which may allow students to defer repayment until after graduation, withdrawal, or termination of attendance. Students must file the FAFSA to be considered for any federal loan program. Students can obtain part time employment to assist in meeting their college costs and, if possible, gain work experience in a field related to their chosen profession. Jobs may or may not require special skills. 95

Financial aid awards shall be prorated based on the number of credit hours taken. SBE Rule 6A 20.111, F.A.C., establishes the criteria for documentation. Students should see a financial aid officer at their institution for necessary information and accommodation. In addition, students attending Florida private or public postsecondary institutions who require adult norm referenced testing to qualify for accommodations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004 or the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 may qualify to have the cost of this testing included in their institution's Cost of Attendance (COA). Indirect restoration of such costs will be dependent upon the student's individual need and the availability of financial aid at the institution the student is attending. Students should see a financial aid officer at their institution for necessary information. 96

FACT AND FICTION ABOUT COLLEGE COSTS With all the publicity about elite private colleges with $30,000 a year price tags, many students and parents have misconceptions about how much it actually costs to attend college. One California study found that high school students overestimated the tuition cost of public universities by several thousand dollars! Such perceptions can have negative effects on students' and parents' ambitions. Fiction: My family can't afford the $20,000+ a year that it takes to go to college. Fact: Full time tuition at Florida public universities is only about $2,700 a year. A four year degree costs less than a new car and will pay for itself many times over in graduates' higher incomes. At colleges, tuition is even lower, generally under $1,750 a year. Living expenses are extra, but you'd have those even if you didn't go to college! Fiction: Tuition fees pay for the full cost of running public colleges and universities. Fact: Only out of state students pay the full cost. Florida resident tuition is set at about 25% of the cost of instruction. The state pays 75%. In effect, every resident receives a 75% "scholarship." It's a bargain you shouldn't miss! Fiction: If I don't have money for tuition and living expenses, I can't go to college. Fact: Money should not be a reason for a qualified student not to go to college. Most students in Florida receive some kind of financial aid. Those who qualify for the Florida Bright Futures Scholarships are paid the equivalent of 75 100% of tuition and fees at a public state university or college. The federal Hope Tax Credit also helps some families get reimbursed for the first two years of college. Many sources of need based aid are also available. On or off campus jobs and low interest loans can help pay living expenses for some low and middle income students. Many students with few resources manage to work their way through college. Before saying you can't afford it, call a college financial aid office to discuss your options! Fiction: Students and parents shouldn't take out loans for college. Fact: Most financial planners agree that if you're careful and don't take out too much, student loans, unlike car loans or credit cards, can be "good debt." That is, they represent an investment that will pay for itself. A student who graduates with $25,000 in student loans and gets a job paying $30,000 a year will have a higher standard of living than a student who doesn't attend college and has a job paying $20,000 a year. Many families qualify for subsidized loans with low interest and flexible repayment plans. Student loans are also easier to get than many other loans. Fiction: Private colleges are for rich kids. Fact: Some private colleges are more expensive than others. Many of the most expensive ones also have the most generous financial aid programs for low income families. Even middle income students who attend private colleges often receive "discounts" from full tuition. Getting into selective private colleges isn't easy, but qualified students shouldn't shy away for financial reasons. Colleges want students with diverse backgrounds and may make generous financial aid offers to low income students with good academic credentials. In addition, Florida offers scholarships to resident students who attend in state private colleges. Some families find out that when financial aid offers are considered, a seemingly "pricey" private college is less expensive than a public one. FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID PROGRAMS Academic Competitiveness and SMART Grants President Bush signed into law the Academic Competitiveness Grant on February 8, 2006, as part of the Higher Education Reconciliation Act of 2005. The grant is intended to encourage high school students to complete challenging and rigorous coursework in high school, which will likely increase their success in college and lead them to pursue college majors in high demand in the global economy. National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (SMART) Grants will be available to students for their third and fourth years of college (or fifth year of a five year program) if they major in mathematics, science (including physical, life, and computer sciences), technology, engineering, or a critical foreign language. 97

Florida Colleges 111

FLORIDA S COLLEGE SYSTEM OVERVIEW Florida s 28 public colleges are open to everyone and offer high school equivalency diploma (GED) training, adult basic education, as well as certificate, associate, and bachelor degree programs. Certificate and degree programs offered at Florida s colleges range from auto mechanics to nursing to the Associate in Arts (AA) degree, which guarantees transfer to public colleges and universities. In addition to 2 year degrees, some colleges are now offering baccalaureate degrees in areas that meet local workforce needs such as nursing, teaching and technology. Students who plan to pursue an associate or bachelor degree will need to earn a standard high school diploma, GED or CPT Eligible Certificate of Completion. Students are not required to earn a minimum GPA or SAT/ACT score in order to be admitted. The Florida College System maintains an open door admissions policy for students seeking an associate degree. While some colleges within the system have dropped community from their name and others have added state, all colleges retain their open door policy. Upon admission, students are required to take the CPT, ACT or SAT (or present scores) to determine appropriate course placement. The Florida College System includes 28 colleges with 180 sites and approximately 2,000 other service delivery centers. In 2008 09, there were 831,165 enrolled students, with 260,141 in the AA degree program. Most students in The Florida College System are graduates of Florida high schools, including a large number of valedictorians and honors students. The following pages provide information that high school guidance counselors will find helpful in advising high school students who are interested in entering a college in Florida. A student interested in particular institutions or academic programs in the system should contact the registrar or director of admission at the institution in which he/she wishes to enroll. Special attention should be paid to the requirements, opportunities, and provisions listed in this Handbook. Although not all of the information will affect every student entering Florida colleges, the information is provided to encourage students to become more aware of educational opportunities and to plan their educational programs. GENERAL ADMISSION INFORMATION Admission to an associate degree program requires a standard high school diploma, a GED, a certificate of completion that specifically stipulates eligibility for the Common Placement Test, or previously demonstrated competency in college credit postsecondary coursework. Home schooled students should submit an affidavit signed by the student s parent or legal guardian attesting that the student has completed a home education program. Section 1007.263, F.S., relates to admission at Florida s colleges. It is strongly advised that students wishing to enroll in a college AA, Associate in Science (AS), or Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degree program take the same college preparatory courses designated by the State University System (SUS). Failure to complete the college preparatory curriculum does not preclude admission to a college; however, students who lack the knowledge and skills that should have been obtained through this preparation may need to take college preparatory (remedial) classes after high school graduation and before enrollment in college credit courses. All entering freshmen in AA, AS, and AAS degree programs take a placement test. The placement test contains sub tests in English and Mathematics. Students who do not meet the minimum state defined score on a specific sub test of the placement test are assigned to remedial, non degree credit instruction offered by the college in the respective subject area. College preparatory courses do not earn college credit and cannot be used towards a degree program. Once the student passes all prescribed remedial courses, including the Florida Basic Skills Exit Test, he/she can enroll in college credit coursework towards a degree program. Beginning with the 2008 09 school year, high school students with an intent to continue to college may be eligible to take a placement test in the 11 th grade. Students who meet the minimum score on a specific sub test will not be re tested once admitted to a college, if admitted within 2 years of taking the test. Students who do meet the cut scores on the placement test will be given an opportunity to enroll in college preparatory (remedial) courses in the subject area at the high school before graduating from high school, per Section 1008.37, F.S., and SBE Rule 6A 10.0315, F.A.C. 112

Admission of Students with Disabilities Each college district board of trustees has substitute admission and graduation policies and procedures for students with certain disabilities that prevent them from meeting requirements for admission to the institution, for admission to the program of study, for entry to upper division, or for graduation. All students enrolling in a degree program are required to take a college placement test; there is no substitution for this test. Students with documented learning disabilities may be eligible for accommodations to assist them with completion of the test. Students should contact the Disability Support Services office at their institution for information and assistance (see Sections 1007.264, and 1007.265, F.S., and SBE Rule 6A 10.041, F.A.C.). Students who earn special diplomas may be eligible for certain career and technical education programs. Each college has a disability services coordinator responsible for arranging accommodations for students with documented disabilities. Students should be aware that the documentation requirements and accommodations available at the college may differ from those required in high school. Students should meet with the disability services coordinator prior to their first semester. Housing Information about the availability of on campus and/or off campus housing can be accessed at each college website or by calling the college campus. College Programs with Limited Enrollment Capacity (sometime called Limited Access Programs) Some colleges offer programs in which there are limited spaces available for student enrollment. Admission to such programs is competitive and generally is based on high school grades or college GPA, and in some instances, on results of standardized tests. Students should consult with the individual colleges regarding limited access programs. Residency and Tuition Students in Florida colleges pay a fee on a per credit hour basis. Student fees at colleges are lower than the fees established by the SUS. Maximum fees are established by the SBE based on legislative intent expressed in the annual General Appropriations Act. Students who are not residents of Florida must pay out of state tuition. To qualify as a resident for tuition purposes, an independent student, or his/her parent or legal guardian if the student is classified as dependent, must have established and maintained legal residence in Florida for at least 12 consecutive months prior to the first day of classes for the term in which the student is registered at a college. Most students under the age of 24 are considered dependent students and residency status is established through the parent or legal guardian. If a student under the age of 24 believes they may qualify for independent status, they should be able to provide documentation indicating a personal income level greater than the institution s cost of attendance. Cost of attendance varies by college. For students seeking Florida residency, the student or his/her parent or legal guardian must provide residency documentation, including proof that the student s presence in the state is not solely for the purpose of attending an institution of higher education (see Section 1009.21, F.S., and SBE Rule 6A 10.044, F.A.C.). Examples of documentation include a Florida driver s license or Florida identification card, vehicle registration, or proof of purchase of a home in Florida. Acceleration There are a variety of articulation mechanisms available to Florida s college students. These acceleration mechanisms serve to shorten the time necessary for a student to complete the requirements of a postsecondary certificate or degree. While in high school, students can receive postsecondary credit for passing scores on Advanced Placement (AP) exams administered by the College Board; dual enrollment course credit including credits earned through early admission from a college or university prior to graduation from high school; and passing scores in the International Baccalaureate (IB) and Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) Program exams. College students can receive full postsecondary credit for passing scores on certain national standardized tests, such as those in the College Level Examination Program (CLEP); completion of institutional or departmental examinations for which credit for courses can be awarded; and demonstration of competency achieved through experiential learning. Students may receive credit for any combination of the above acceleration mechanisms (see Section 1007.27, F.S. and SBE Rule 6A 14.031, F.A.C.). 113

Immunization Postsecondary institutions must provide information concerning the risks associated with meningococcal meningitis and hepatitis B and the availability, effectiveness, and known contraindications of any required or recommended vaccine associated with those diseases, to every student accepted for admission. For enrolled students residing in on campus housing, documentation of vaccinations against meningococcal meningitis and hepatitis B must be provided unless 1) the individual is 18 years of age or older or 2) the parent declines the vaccinations for a minor by signing a separate waiver provided by the institution for each of the vaccines, and acknowledges receipt and review of the information provided. Postsecondary institutions are not responsible for providing or paying for the vaccine (see Section 1006.69, F.S.). College Preparatory Instruction All entering freshmen in degree programs take a college placement test in English and mathematics. Students must achieve the specified minimum cut off scores established in SBE Rule on one of the following approved tests before being permitted to enroll in college level courses in math, reading or writing: 1. Florida College Entry Level Placement Test (CPT). 2. Enhanced ACT. 3. SAT I. College students can achieve the minimum cut score on one sub test and not meet the minimum cut score on another sub test. Students who do not achieve the specified cut off scores on a sub test must enroll in an approved college preparatory course in the subject area that will help the student develop the skills necessary for college level courses. Satisfactory completion of the college preparatory courses yields no credit toward a degree (see Section 1008.30, F.S. and SBE Rule 6A 10.0315, F.A.C.). Career and Technical Preparatory Instruction Students enrolled in a career and technical certificate program of 450 clock hours or more must be tested to determine whether they have the minimal level of basic skills needed for successful completion of the program. The designated examinations for assessment of a student s mastery of basic skills are: 1. Florida College Entry Level Placement Test (CPT). 2. Multiple Assessment Placement Service (MAPS). 3. Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE). 4. Wonderlic Basic Skills Test (WBST), 1994. Students who lack the minimal level of skills as measured by the above mentioned tests must enroll in career and technical preparatory courses designated to correct the deficiency. Upon completion of the instruction, students may be re tested using the same examination administered for initial testing. The specific level of basic skills necessary in math and language are defined in each career and technical certificate program description adopted under SBE Rule 6A 6.0571, F.A.C. (see Rule 6A 10.040, F.A.C.). Pursuant to Section 1004.91, F.S., students with disabilities may be exempt from this requirement. College Level Instruction and Testing Students in an AA degree program must demonstrate mastery of college level competencies in communication and computation subject areas before graduating from a Florida college or university. Students can demonstrate these competencies by fulfilling one of the following requirements: 1. Obtaining a passing score on a nationally standardized examination. 2. Demonstrating successful remediation of any academic deficiencies identified by the CPT and achieving a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or above in designated postsecondary coursework. Foreign Language Requirement for Transfer to State Universities College students intending to transfer to a public university or Florida Colleges offering bachelor degree programs must satisfy an admission requirement of completion of 114

two credits of sequential high school foreign language instruction, or the equivalent, at the postsecondary level before entering the institution. This requirement is outlined in Section 1007.262, F.S., which states all students shall have two years of a high school foreign language or its equivalent in order to be admitted to any one of Florida s public postsecondary institutions offering bachelor degrees. SBE Rule 6A 10.02412, F.A.C., states that eight to ten college credits in one (1) foreign language at the postsecondary level will meet the university foreign language requirement for admission. Those students intending to transfer to a college or university are encouraged to meet the foreign language requirement before they transfer. Any AA degree graduate from a public college admitted to a college or university without meeting the foreign language requirement must earn such credits prior to graduation. An alternate method for students to demonstrate equivalent foreign language competence is by means of a foreign language examination, approved by the college or university, such as those offered through the College Board s CLEP exams. Citizenship Status Students who are not United States citizens may be allowed admission to a Florida college; however, it is important to note that non U.S. citizens are not eligible for Florida resident status for tuition purposes or financial aid. Students should contact the college with specific questions regarding qualifications for Florida residency and financial aid. Degrees and Certificates Awarded The AA degree is the transfer degree of the colleges. It is the primary basis for admission of transfer students for upper division study in a state university. The AA degree is awarded upon completion of 60 college credits (including 36 credits in liberal arts and sciences, also called general education courses); achievement of a GPA of 2.0 in all courses attempted and in all courses taken at the institution awarding the degree; completion of specified college level English and Mathematics courses; and demonstrated mastery of college level competencies in communication and computation (see SBE Rule 6A 10.024, F.A.C.). The award of the AA degree is based upon satisfaction of specific college level English and Mathematics courses with a grade of "C" or higher. The specific courses, as indicated in SBE Rule 6A 10.030, F.A.C., include 12 credits of English coursework and six credit hours of Mathematics coursework at the level of College Algebra or higher (see SBE Rule 6A 10.030, F.A.C.). For purposes of this rule, an English course is defined as any semester length course within the general study area of humanities. The AS degree is earned through a student s satisfactory completion of a planned program of instruction consisting of college level courses to prepare for entry into the workforce. The AS degree is awarded upon completion of at least 60 college credits as determined by the program of study (including at least 15 credits in general education courses) and demonstration of the attainment of predetermined and specified performance requirements (see SBE Rule 6A 14.030, F.A.C.). Selected AS degrees articulate with baccalaureate degrees under the provisions of SBE Rule 6A 10.024(5) (b), F.A.C. The AAS degree is awarded to a student who satisfactorily completes a planned program of study consisting of collegelevel courses to prepare for entry into employment. The AAS degree is awarded upon completion of the standard credit hour length established for a program of study and demonstration of the attainment of predetermined and specified performance requirements. The Career and Technical Certificate is awarded to a student who satisfactorily completes a planned program of instruction consisting of non college credit postsecondary career and technical courses. The courses in the career and technical certificate programs prepare students for employment. Career and technical certificates are available at many colleges, as well as at area career and technical centers assigned to public school boards (see SBE Rule 6A 14.030, F.A.C.). Selected baccalaureate degrees are offered at several Florida colleges as provided for in Sections 1007.33 and 1004.73, F.S. Bachelor of Science (BS) and Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) degrees are offered in critical workforce areas such as nursing, teaching, and technology. Prospective students can find a listing and links including some information on 115

baccalaureate degrees offered at Florida colleges by accessing http://www.fldoe.org/cc/students/bach_degree.asp. For more detailed information, contact individual colleges on programs currently being offered. Financial Aid College policies encourage and support every effort to remove financial barriers to pursuing postsecondary education. Therefore, each college has a student financial aid office that provides assistance to students who qualify. Several types of assistance, including scholarships and grants, loans, and student employment, are available through state, federal, and local sources for students who qualify for financial aid. All high school students interested in attending a college are encouraged to apply to qualify for federal financial aid through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FASFA) available online at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/. To find out more about federal financial aid, visit www.studentaid.ed.gov. For more information on state financial aid, visit www.floridastudentfinancialaid.org. Dual Enrollment Colleges share responsibility with secondary schools in Florida for dual enrollment programs. These programs provide an acceleration mechanism for eligible high school students to take postsecondary courses for which they receive high school and postsecondary credit. The intent is to broaden curricular options, increase depth of study options, and to shorten the time necessary for completing certificate or degree requirements while meeting high school graduation requirements. There are two curricular avenues for students to participate in dual enrollment: early college (college credit) and career. Early college refers to academic or college credit coursework at the postsecondary level that leads to a college credit certificate or degree. Career dual enrollment refers to enrollment in courses that lead to a career and technical certificate. Students, parents and guidance counselors are encouraged to consider the student s postsecondary goals and reference guidance documents, such as the Dual Enrollment High School Subject Area Course Equivalency List, in order to align dual enrollment course selection with postsecondary goals. Career and technical certificate programs are also closely coordinated with high school offerings to ensure a smooth transition for career and technical students from high school to colleges. The Bright Futures Comprehensive Course Table is an important reference for students planning to dual enroll in career and technical certificate programs. See the section "College Credit Programs for High School Students" of this Handbook for more information. TRANSFER TO FOUR YEAR INSTITUTIONS Transfer to State Universities and Florida Colleges Offering Baccalaureate Degree Programs One method for students to access the SUS is through the Florida colleges. Approximately 50 percent of the students in upper division courses at the universities are Florida college transfers. A statewide Articulation Agreement, which is a contract between the SUS and The Florida College System, creates a "2+2" system. In other words, students earn a bachelor degree by earning an AA at a college then transferring to a state university for the upper division coursework. With more colleges offering baccalaureate degrees, it is important to note that the 2+2 works within The Florida College System as well, meaning students may pursue a bachelor degree at a college. The agreement protects the credits earned by students during their freshman and sophomore years at the colleges. It guarantees that students who complete the AA degree will be admitted to at least one of the state universities and one of the colleges and that they will not have to repeat courses already satisfactorily completed at a college. Admission to a specific program is not guaranteed through this statewide articulation agreement. Students should be made aware of the required common prerequisites for entry into specific baccalaureate degree programs to ensure a smooth transition. The Statewide Course Numbering System maintains course equivalencies for all public postsecondary institutions and participating nonpublic institutions. Courses with the same prefix and last three digits are guaranteed to transfer. The Articulation Coordinating Committee, which includes representatives from colleges, universities, career and technical centers, and school districts oversees all articulation activities. This committee recommends policies to remove barriers and facilitate student transitions. 116

Transfer to Private Colleges and Universities College graduates with an associate degree can also easily transfer course credits to many private colleges or universities. The Independent Colleges and Universities of Florida (ICUF) have maintained an articulation agreement with The Florida College System since 1992. The agreement guarantees that students with an associate degree transfer as juniors, receive 60 credit hours toward their baccalaureate degree, and receive recognition for the general education courses taken at the Florida college. For more information about the participating ICUF institutions, articulation manuals may be accessed at www.facts.org in the Counselors and Educators Advising Manuals section. Additional statewide articulation agreements with The Florida College System and nonpublic postsecondary institutions may be accessed at http://www.fldoe.org/articulation/articulation agreement.asp. HOW TO GET A BACHELOR OR HIGHER DEGREE AT A COLLEGE CAMPUS Location shouldn't be a barrier for place bound students wanting to pursue a bachelor or higher degree. Florida students can take upper level and graduate courses through more than 500 programs located on college campuses. These programs enable students to remain on a college campus and receive the upper level and graduate instruction they need to complete a bachelor or higher degree. While many colleges have received authority to offer their own bachelor degrees in certain areas, most of the baccalaureate and higher degrees are provided through a partnership between a college and a public or private four year institution. Some colleges have even established an on site "university center" through which students may receive academic advising, financial aid assistance, and other student services. A listing of college baccalaureate programs and concurrent use partnerships, bachelor level or higher, that are self reported by colleges and universities to be offered in 2010 11 may be accessed at http://www.fldoe.org/cc/students/bach_degree.asp in the section titled There are two ways to get a bachelor degree at a Florida College. For the most current information, please be sure to check with the college of interest for program updates.

Colleges & Universities 138

STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF FLORIDA OVERVIEW FRESHMAN ADMISSION AND TRANSFERS The State University System (SUS) of Florida is comprised of eleven universities, some with branch campuses and centers in different areas of the state. The SUS is committed to providing educational opportunities of the highest quality for the state's residents. Ten of Florida's eleven public universities offer baccalaureate and graduate degrees. New College of Florida, the eleventh university, is an honors college that offers an individually oriented Bachelor of Arts degree with concentrations in a variety of disciplines. The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) accredits each institution, and many of the specialized and professional programs are also accredited by agencies with knowledge and skills associated with a specific discipline. Freshman Admission The state universities have a limit on the number of new students who may be enrolled at the freshman level. As a result of the institutions' space, faculty, resources, and policy limitations, a number of qualified students may be denied admission to one or more of the state universities while being accepted for admission by others. Specific information on general admissions criteria and system wide requirements for first time in college students (FTIC) can be found in Board of Governors (BOG) Regulation 6.002 available at http://www.flbog.org/about/regulations. Prospective students should contact the institution in which they would like to enroll for specific information regarding admission as each institution may establish greater criteria than the minimum identified in Board regulation. Transfer from Florida College System Institutions Many students are admitted to the state universities as transfers from Florida College System public institutions after completing an Associate of Arts (AA) degree. The transfer of students who have earned an AA degree in a Florida College System institution is governed by the terms of an Articulation Agreement between the State University System and the Division of Florida Colleges. The articulation agreement also covers certain Associate of Science (AS) degrees, but not all. The Agreement guarantees, within certain limitations, admission for Florida College System institution AA degree graduates. Students are not guaranteed admission to their first choice of institution or program of study. There are some admission limits placed on specific programs within each university (see Limited Access Programs below). Except for limited cases, a student transferring to a state university without first completing the AA degree must meet the admission requirements for FTIC students specified in BOG Regulation 6.002. Students with Disabilities Students with disabilities should be aware they may be able to receive a reasonable substitution or modification for program of study admission requirements if documentation is provided to indicate that the student s failure to meet the requirements is related to the disability. The university must determine that such failure to meet the requirement does not constitute a fundamental nature of the academic program (BOG Regulation 6.018). Students are encouraged to contact the university disability services offices early to determine necessary documentation. Applicants with disabilities for whom part time college enrollment status is a necessary accommodation are eligible to apply for state financial aid. Certain requirements have to be met regarding disability documentation. Therefore, applicants should check with the college or university disability or financial aid offices for guidance. Criteria for Awarding the Baccalaureate Degree All students receiving a baccalaureate degree within the SUS must demonstrate college level proficiency in English language skills, reading, and writing. In addition, students must complete at least 36 hours of general education courses in communication, mathematics, social sciences, humanities, and natural sciences. Of the 36 hours, at least six hours must be taken in English and six hours in mathematics at the level of college algebra or higher. The baccalaureate degree must consist of a minimum of 120 credit hours, which may include university courses and credit given through 139

accelerated mechanisms and/or transfer credit. In addition to meeting system wide graduation requirements, students must meet university and programmatic graduation requirements. Excess Hour Fee First time in college students who enter a university for the first time in the 2009 2010 academic year and thereafter should be aware that if they take more than 120% of the number of credit hours required to complete their baccalaureate degree program, they may be charged an excess hour fee equal to 50% of the undergraduate tuition (Section 1009.285, F.S. and BOG Regulation 7.003). There are selected course exceptions. Students should discuss this issue thoroughly with their university academic advisor. Electronic Admission Applications High school students are encouraged to apply to participating state universities using an electronic application. Students may apply using the university of their choice admission application or, for some institutions, the university application available at www.facts.org. University applications can be found on the institution s webpage. Directions for completing electronic applications vary among universities, but generally, the student must print out a certification form attesting to the veracity of the information submitted and granting the university authorization to request transcripts and test scores. Some schools send an application validation after the electronic application is received. To claim Florida residency, a parent or guardian must sign the appropriate section. An application fee of $20 $30 must be received before the application is processed. Students will need to contact the university directly for clarification on the amount of fees owed. Many universities allow students to waive application fees if they meet certain financial need criteria. Please read each university's directions carefully. Admission Deposit Most of the universities require students to send an admission deposit after the student has been admitted. This includes a non refundable portion and confirms the student's admission standing. The deposit is applied toward payment of tuition upon enrollment. The deposit may be waived for those individuals who have provided documentation that they have received an application fee waiver because of economic need, as specified by the university. Florida Residency Status A student's residence at the time of admission determines the amount of tuition that must be paid each semester. A residency statement for fee paying purposes, included in the admission application packet, must be completed and returned to the university, according to the instructions, in order for a student to be considered for classification as a Florida resident (see BOG Regulation 7.005). Section 1009.21, F.S., is very specific as to the residency documentation needed in order to determine eligibility. Students should be aware that for the majority of cases, the residency determination for students attending postsecondary institutions soon after high school graduation will be based on their parent(s) or legal guardian s residency documentation. Financial Aid Each university offers financial aid programs. See the Financial Aid section of this Handbook for more detailed information regarding the types of financial aid available. Housing All universities have on campus student housing but not at all campuses. 140

Immunization Requirements Each student is required to provide documentation of immunity to measles and immunization against rubella prior to registration. The documentation should be submitted as soon as possible to avoid denial or cancellation of registration (see BOG Regulation 6.001(8)). Students (or their parents if the student is a minor) will receive information concerning meningococcal meningitis and hepatitis B from postsecondary educational institutions. If they plan on residing in campus housing, they will be required to show documentation of vaccinations against these two diseases or, if they decline the vaccinations, will be required to sign a waiver acknowledging receipt and review of the information provided (see Section 1006.69, F.S.). Limited Access Programs Some academic degree programs are designated as limited access programs and require higher GPA s or other specific criteria for admission at the junior level. Florida public college graduates with AA degrees and graduates with specified AS degrees will be considered for admission into limited access programs at the universities using the same criteria as university students who have completed their sophomore year. Students wishing to transfer into a limited access program are advised to contact the program director at the university well before completion of the AA degree, or the specified AS degree, to obtain the list of admission requirements into the specific program (see SBE Rule 6A 10.024(4), F.A.C. and BOG Regulation 8.013). Acceleration Mechanisms Students may earn credit toward college through examinations rather than college courses. By achieving specified minimum standard scores on Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), College level Examination Program (CLEP), Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE), and other examinations accepted by the university, college, school, or academic department, students may earn college credit prior to admission. Other acceleration mechanisms include dual enrollment and early admission. In the dual enrollment program, an eligible high school student may enroll in postsecondary courses that earn credits towards both college and high school completion. Counselors should be aware that some academic degree programs offer little flexibility in college electives. If students know their potential future major and/or postsecondary institution of choice, counselors should guide students to dual enrollment courses that serve to meet the necessary high school credit and also fit into the students' appropriate postsecondary major and/or general education requirements. Early admission is a form of dual enrollment by which a student who is working toward a high school diploma enrolls full time at the postsecondary institution. The courses are creditable toward both the high school diploma and college degree. Interested students should discuss specific acceleration mechanisms and suitable options with their advisors. University catalogs describe policies in more detail. Distance Learning Distance education is a significant resource for students who need maximum flexibility in course scheduling, or for those needing to take hard to find courses in order to graduate. Students may enroll in college credit courses offered through distance education by state universities. Courses are offered using synchronous (everyone at the same time), asynchronous (no set time for anyone), and mixed (includes both synchronous and asynchronous) methods of instruction. Several technologies may be used for instructional delivery. A course could use the Internet, two way video, two way audio, video taped instruction, printed material, interactive CD ROM, television broadcast, or any combination of these methods. For more information, students should visit their university's website or refer to the university catalog and course schedule. The Distance Learning Consortium helps students easily locate all distance learning courses offered at Florida postsecondary institutions. The website, www.distancelearn.org, features a searchable database of distance education offerings from the state s public colleges and universities and SACS accredited private institutions. Students must be 141

enrolled at one of the participating institutions, but may take courses appropriate to their program of study at any other institution, provided they obtain approval from their home institution for the course. ACADEMIC DEGREE PROGRAMS The SUS includes the University of Florida, Florida State University, Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University, University of South Florida, Florida Atlantic University, University of West Florida, University of Central Florida, Florida International University, University of North Florida, Florida Gulf Coast University, and New College of Florida. New College awards Honors Bachelor of Arts degrees (CIP 24.0199) in a variety of concentrations.

STATE UNIVERSITY ADMISSION POLICIES Competitive Admission Admission into Florida's public universities is competitive. Acceptance is determined by enrollment limitations and qualifications of the freshmen applicant pool. It is recommended that prospective college students apply to more than one university and complete a rigorous curriculum in high school in an effort to increase their chances for acceptance. Admission Criteria The minimum state level admission policies have been established for first time in college students and for undergraduate students transferring without an AA degree from a Florida College System institution. Admission criteria is based on: 1) high school graduation, 2) GPA in academic core courses, 3) admission test scores, and 4) course distribution requirements (see BOG Regulations 6.001 and 6.002). The minimum requirements apply to all eleven universities. However, universities are permitted to set higher admission standards. There are three methods to qualify for admission into the universities: standard admission criteria based on GPA, test scores, and course selection; the Talented 20 Program; and alternative admissions using profile assessment. These methods are explained fully in Board of Governor Regulation 6.002 available at http://www.flbog.edu/documents_regulations/regulations/6%20002%20admission%20of%20undergraduate%20ftic% 20Frehsmen%20(mv%20edits).pdf. 1. Standard Admission A high school diploma from a Florida public or regionally accredited high school, or its equivalent, is required for admission to a state university. Students completing a home education program according to Section 1002.41, F.S., are eligible for admission; however, each university may require additional documentation to verify student eligibility. Students participating in a non traditional high school program may seek admissions to a state university; however, such applications are evaluated individually by the SUS institution to which the student has applied. GPA In High School Academic Core Courses A weighted high school GPA will be calculated by the university using a 4.0 scale from grades earned in high school in academic core courses in designated subject areas, as well as specified AP and IB Fine Arts courses (see lists of academic core courses on the following pages). Additional weights may be assigned to certain grades in AP, dual enrollment, Honors, IB, AICE, and other advanced courses (see chart below).

Admission Test Scores Admission eligibility for students will be determined based on the university calculated high school GPA, admission test scores and course selection. Students with a calculated "B" average (3.0 on a 4.0 scale) or higher do not need to meet minimum test scores, although either an SAT or ACT score must be submitted. Alert: The SUS Sliding Admission Scale is being replaced! Only FTIC students applying for admission tot he SUS through Spring 2011 may be admitted if he/she has the specified GPA in the required academic courses in conjunction with an SAT Reasoning Test or ACT composite score. The sliding scale shown allows an applicant to balance a lower GPA with a higher test score or a lower test score with a higher GPA. The sliding scale reflects the state s minimum standards; institutions may set higher standards. The applicant's GPA will be calculated by the university as described above, using only the grades earned in the required academic core courses listed on the following pages. SUS Sliding Admission Scale for FTIC Admission through Spring 2011 SUS Sliding Admission Scale (good through SUS Spring 2011 Admits) If HS GPA in required Academic Courses is: GPA Then SAT or ACT Score must equal or exceed: ACT SAT Reasoning Test (all three sections) 2.0 25 1680 2.1 24 1620 2.2 24 1620 2.3 23 1560 2.4 22 1510 2.5 21 1450 2.6 21 1450 2.7 21 1450 2.8 21 1450 2.9 20 1390 3.0 * * *There is no minimum test score for students with a GPA of 3.0 or better. However, either an SAT or ACT score must still be submitted. 143

Requirements for FTIC Students Applying Summer 2011 and Later FTIC students applying to the SUS in summer 2011 or later may be considered for admission based on the following criteria: An FTIC student may be admitted if he/she has a high school GPA of 3.00 or higher on a 4.00 scale as calculated by the university (still must take the SAT or ACT), OR An FTIC student may be admitted if he/she has a high school GPA of 2.5 2.99 on a 4.00 scale as calculated by the university. Coursework from which the student has withdrawn from with passing grades will not be included in the calculation. In addition to achieving the minimum GPA, a student must achieve the minimum scores for each SAT Reasoning Test or ACT section as outlined below: o SAT Critical Reading 460 or ACT Reading 19 o SAT Mathematics 460 or ACT Mathematics 19 o SAT Writing 440 or ACT Combined English/Writing 18 High School Course Distribution Requirements Students must complete at least 18 credits of high school work in the five core areas listed below in addition to two or three additional electives (depending on the year the student began high school) as will be explained in the list of approved college preparatory courses (in the Mathematics and Electives areas). English Mathematics Natural Science Social Science Foreign Language Electives TOTAL 4 Credits 4 (or 3) Credits 3 Credits 3 Credits 2 Credits 2 (or 3) Credits 18 Credits 2. Talented 20 Program Within space and fiscal limitations, graduates from Florida public high schools who rank in the top 20% of their class, who have completed the required 18 credits of core courses listed above, and have submitted an SAT or ACT test score, shall be admitted into one of the eleven state universities, although not necessarily the university of the applicant's choice. After three notifications of denial, other universities will provide complimentary reviews of the transcripts of the Talented 20 applicants at the request of the high school counselor. Once any university accepts the student, the guarantee for admission has been considered met, even if the student does not wish to attend that particular university (see BOG Regulation 6.002(2)(c)). 3. Student Profile Assessment The majority of students are admitted on the basis of their past academic achievements and admission test scores in relation to the minimum requirements. Universities are allowed flexibility to admit a limited number of students as exceptions to the minimum requirements provided that the university determines that the student has potential to be successful in college. Applicants who do not meet the minimum admission requirements may be eligible for admission through a student profile assessment that considers factors such as: family educational background, socioeconomic status, special talents, or the high school or geographic location of the applicant. Any important attributes or special talents should be reported with the application. The factors will not include preferences on the basis of race, national origin, or sex (see BOG Regulation 6.002(6)(b)). 144

HIGH SCHOOL COURSES THAT SATISFY COURSE DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS FOR SUS ADMISSION The courses listed on the following pages are the preferred "college prep" courses. These courses best prepare students for university level work and they carry the most weight in the competitive admission process. They also meet the requirements for Bright Futures Scholarships and can be used in meeting the 24 credit standard high school program or the 18 credit college preparatory program. Equivalent courses to those listed taken outside the Florida public school system may also satisfy the state's minimum requirements for admission into state universities in Florida. A few of these courses, marked with an asterisk (*), do not meet state requirements for credit in the designated subject areas for graduation from high school according to the Florida Department of Education Course Code Directory. Courses that were approved as meeting college prep requirements, but are no longer being offered, are listed at the end of the list of core courses. English Course Requirements (Academic Core Courses in English) POLICY: A SUS freshman applicant must have four academic credits in English, three of which must have included substantial writing requirements. The following courses are the "college prep" courses in English that include these writing requirements. Students should complete four or more academic credits from courses on this list. *Courses marked with an asterisk do not give subject area credit for high school graduation. 1001310 English 1 1001830 English 4 IB 1005375 AICE English Literature 2 1001320 English Honors 1 1001840 English 1 Honors IB MYP 1005380 Pre AICE English Literature 1001340 English 2 1001845 English 2 Honors IB MYP 1009300 Writing 1 1001350 English Honors 2 1002300 Eng 1 through ESOL 1009310 Writing 2 1001370 English 3 1002310 Eng 2 through ESOL 1009320 *Creative Writing 1 1001380 English Honors 3 1002320 Eng 3 through ESOL 1009330 *Creative Writing 2 1001400 English 4 1002520 Eng 4 through ESOL 1009331 *Creative Writing 3 1001410 English Honors4 1004300 *Semantics and Logic 1009332 *Creative Writing 4 1001420 AP English: Language & Comp. 1005300 World Literature 1009333 *Creative Writing 5 1001430 AP English: Literature & Comp. 1005310 American Literature 1009360 AICE General Paper 1 1001480 *Adv Comm.

To implement the change from the previous requirement of three math credits to the new requirement of four math credits for SUS admission consideration, note the following temporary policy change as determined by the student s grade level as of 2010 11: 2010 11 students in grade twelve: These students are permitted to count the sequences of Algebra 1A and 1B or the sequence of Applied Math 1 and 2 as two credits for high school graduation as well as for meeting SUS admission requirements. These students are permitted to count Liberal Arts as one of the four required credits of Algebra 1 or higher for admission to a state university as long as Liberal Arts Math was taken in either 2007 08, 2008 09, or 2009 10. If the course is taken during the 2010 2011 academic year or after, it will not count as one of the four credits for SUS admission. 145

2010 11 students in grade eleven: These students are permitted to count the sequences of Algebra 1A and 1B or the sequence of Applied Math 1 and 2 as two credits for high school graduation as well as for meeting SUS admission requirements. These students are permitted to count Liberal Arts Math as one of the four required credits of Algebra 1 or higher admission to a state university as long as Liberal Arts Math was taken in either 2008 09 or 2009 10. If the course is taken during the 2010 11 academic year or after, it will not county as one of the four credits for SUS admission. 2010 11 students in grade ten and classes following: High school math credits for these students will revert to the traditional SUS policy that states the sequences for Algebra 1A and 1B and the sequence for Applied Math 1 and 2 satisfy a total of one credit of math for SUS admission purposes. Liberal Arts Math will not be accepted as one of the four mathematics courses. Note: Students should be aware that their course selection affects possible admission to a state university. Students who have selected Liberal Arts Math, Algebra 1A and 1B, or Applied Math 1 and 2 may not be as competitive as those who are able to take coursework past the Algebra 2 level. The following courses are the "college prep" courses that meet or exceed the minimum level. Students should complete four or more academic credits in mathematics from courses on this list. *Courses marked with an asterisk do not give subject area credit for high school graduation. 1200310 Algebra 1 1202352 AICE Mathematics 1 1206310 Geometry 1200320 Algebra 1 Honors 1202354 AICE Math & Mechanics 1 1206320 Geometry Honors 1200330 Algebra 2 1202356 AICE Math & Mechanics 2 1206330 Analytic Geometry 1200340 Algebra 2 Honors 1202362 AICE Math & Prob & Statistics 1 1206800 Analytical Geometry IB 1200370 Algebra 1A** 1202364 AICE Math & Prob & Statistics 2 1206810 Geometry Honors IB MYP 1200380 Algebra 1B** 1202366 AICE Math & Mech & Prob & Stats 2 1207310 Integrated Math 1 Algebra 1A and 1B, taken sequentially, 1202370 AICE Further Mathematics 1207320 Integrated Math 2 equate to one unit of Algebra 1. 1202373 Pre AICE Additional Mathematics 3 1207330 Integrated Math 3 1200390 Algebra 1 Honors IB MYP 1202375 IB Pre Calculus 1209800 Math Studies IB 1200395 Algebra 2 Honors IB MYP 1202800 Calculus IB 1209810 Pre AICE Math 1 1200500 Advanced Algebra w/ Financial Apps 1202810 IB Calculus & Descriptive Statistics 1210300 Prob & Stats w/application 1200700 Math for College Readiness 1202820 IB Further Mathematics 1210310 IB Statistics & Intro Differential Calculus 1201300 Math Analysis 1202830 IB Advanced Calculus 1210320 AP Statistics 1201310 Analysis of Functions 1209820 Pre AICE Mathematics 2 1210330 AICE Mathematics: Statistics 1201320 IB Math Analysis 1209830 IB Mathematics Higher Level 1211300 Trigonometry 1202300 Calculus 1205400 Applied Math 1** 1211800 Trigonometry IB 1202310 AP Calculas AB 1205410 Applied Math 2** 1220910 Discrete Mathematics 1202320 AP Calculas BC Applied Math 1 and 2, taken sequentially, 1298310 Advanced Topics in Math 1202340 Pre Calculus Equate to one unit of Algebra 1. **COUNSELOR ALERT: Because 2008 9th and 10th graders enrolled in either Algebra 1A and 1B or Applied Math 1 and 2 may not be able to gain math credit above Algebra 2 unless doubling up math credit per year, these students are strongly encouraged to take rigorous academic credit for electives in order to be best prepared for academic success in college as well as competitive with other students for admission to the more selective universities. Natural Science Course Requirements (Academic Core Courses in the Natural Sciences) POLICY: A SUS freshman applicant must have three academic credits in natural science, two of which must have included substantial laboratory requirements. The following courses are the "college prep" courses in natural science which include these laboratory requirements. Students should complete three or more natural science academic credits from courses on this list. Students who start the integrated science courses should complete a minimum of three courses to meet the science requirements. 146

Students and counselors are advised to carefully consider the importance of elective coursework. Completion of the required 18 credits for SUS admission guarantees acceptance only in the case of Talented 20 students. Therefore, the stronger an applicant's preparation (including electives), the better their chances of admission in general, and to the university of their choice. Students who entered as high school freshmen July 1, 2000 to June 30, 2007 may complete the three elective requirements in any combination of courses listed in the Course Code Directory, as follows: 150

Up to three credits of: Level 2 courses in: English/Language Arts Mathematics Foreign Language Social Science Natural Science Fine Arts (see Course Code Directory) Level 3 courses in any discipline (see Course Code Directory) OR Two credits from the above list and one credit of: Courses grade nine or above in ROTC/Military Training; or Equivalent courses in any discipline as determined by the ACC (see list on following page). Students who entered as high school freshmen July 1, 2007 or later may complete the two elective requirements in any combination of courses listed in the Course Code Directory, as follows: Two credits of: Level 2 courses in: English/Language Arts Mathematics Foreign Language Social Science Natural Science Fine Arts (see Course Code Directory) Level 3 courses in any discipline (see Course Code Directory) OR One credit from the above list and one credit of: Courses grade nine or above in ROTC/Military Training; or Equivalent courses in any discipline as determined by the ACC (see list on following page). COUNSELOR ALERT: Because 2008 9th and 10th graders enrolled in either Algebra 1A and 1B or Applied Math 1 and 2 may not be able to gain math credit above Algebra 2 unless doubling up math credit per year, these students are highly encouraged to take rigorous academic credit for electives in order to possibly be competitive with other students. Additional Electives Newly Approved to be considered in the SUS admissions process and inclusion in the Course Code Directory for 2009 2010 and 2008 2009. For a comprehensive list of courses that will be considered as electives for SUS admissions consideration, please refer to the Bright Futures Scholarship Program Comprehensive Course Table (CCT) online at https://www.osfaffelp.org/bfiehs/fnbpcm02_cctmain.aspx.

PRIVATE COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES Florida's private colleges and universities are a diverse group. Each institution sets its own admission requirements and many have unique programs not offered at other institutions in the state. All institutions that are a part of the Independent Colleges and Universities of Florida (ICUF) and some licensed by the Commission for Independent Education (Commission) are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the accrediting body for Florida public institutions. Many other private institutions are nationally accredited. Students should determine their degree and/or transfer plans to decide whether or not a particular institution is likely to meet their educational goals. A personal visit to the college or university is also a good idea. For additional information about programs at independent postsecondary institutions, visit www.facts.org. INDEPENDENT COLLEGES & UNIVERSITIES OF FLORIDA The Independent Colleges & Universities of Florida (ICUF) consists of 28 private, higher education institutions. These colleges and universities award 26% of Florida's bachelor degrees and more than half the graduate and professional degrees in Florida. ICUF institutions are non profit, Florida based and (like Florida public universities and colleges) accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). They serve more than 128,000 students at 108 sites around the state. They offer bachelor degree opportunities on 18 college campuses. Institutional enrollments vary from approximately 100 to nearly 25,000 students. At ICUF institutions 87% of the classes have fewer than 30 students.

In keeping with the FDOE's goal of producing a seamless educational system, some of these functions include consumer protection, program improvement, institutional polices and administration, data management, and the licensure of independent schools, colleges and universities. Licensed Colleges and Universities During the 2009 2010 fiscal year, 369 degree granting institutions were under the jurisdiction of the Commission. Total reported enrollment for these degree programs was 302,517. There were 56,608 graduates reported from these degree programs. Currently, 325 (88%) of these degree granting institutions are accredited by one or more regional or national accrediting agencies. A complete listing of these independent colleges and universities are available at the Commission s website (http://www.fldoe.org/cie/index.htm). You may also call the Commission at (850) 245 3200. If you have any complaints about these independent postsecondary institutions, call the Consumer Protection Hotline at 1 888 224 6684. Be aware that there is no guarantee that students will be able to transfer credits to another institution. The acceptance of students or graduates is up to the receiving institution. Students and counselors should determine, prior to enrollment, whether or not a particular institution is likely to meet the students educational goals. If a student is considering a transfer in the future, it is important to ask the college or university to which the student might transfer about the credits that will be accepted from their previous institution. Remember that a personal visit to the college or university is always a good idea. 2010 2011 COMMISSION DEGREE GRANTING INSTITUTION CONTACT INFORMATION Academy for Five Element Acupuncture, Inc.

Some have unique programs not offered at Florida s public technical schools. These independent postsecondary schools are licensed by the state and many schools are accredited by recognized accrediting agencies. There were a total of 552 institutions offering only non degree programs under the jurisdiction of the Commission during the 2009 2010 fiscal year. The reported enrollment for these non degree programs was 77,235. There were 47,817 reported graduates from these programs and, of this number, 39,979 (84%) were placed in jobs, joined the military, or are continuing their education at an institution of higher learning. Currently, 142 (26%) of the Commission s licensed institutions that offer only diplomas are accredited by one or more regional or national accrediting agencies. Be aware that there is no guarantee that students will be able to transfer credits to another institution. The acceptance of students or graduates is up to the receiving institution. Students and counselors should determine, prior to enrollment, whether or not a particular institution is likely to meet the students educational goals. If a student is considering a transfer in the future, it is important to ask the institution to which the student might transfer to verify the credits that will be accepted from their previous school. Remember that a personal visit to the school is always a good idea. A complete listing of nonpublic postsecondary vocational and technical schools is available at the Commission s website (www.fldoe.org/cie/index.htm). You may also call the Commission at (850) 245 3200. If you have any complaints about these independent postsecondary institutions, call the Consumer Protection Hotline at 1 888 224 6684. 183
