Dual Enrollment and Early Admission Requirements
You are encouraged to begin the application process early and have all materials in to the Office of Admissions at least 6 weeks before the start of the term you intend to enroll. Applicants are encouraged to apply as early as possible – up to twelve months before the requested entry date. The application and all official supporting documents must be submitted by the posted deadlines below for the requested entry date. Transcripts and test scores received and opened by the university may not be transferred to a third party or the applicant and become the sole property of FGCU.
