FAQ - Non-degree and Transient Students


Q: How do I enroll as a transient student?
  If you are currently enrolled in the State University System of Florida, you will need a transient student form from your current institution. The Transient Form will list the courses you wish to take, in addition to signatures from your advisor and Registrar's office. As a SUS transient, you will not be required to pay the application fee, complete the non-degree application, or provide proof of immunization. You may either mail the transient form or bring it in person to:

Office of the Registrar
Florida Gulf Coast University
10501 FGCU Blvd. South
Fort Myers, Fl 33965-6565

Students who are not from a State University System of Florida school, will be required to provide proof of immunization to Student Health Services, complete the non-degree application, and pay the $30.00 application fee to:

Undergraduate Admissions
Florida Gulf Coast University
10501 FGCU Blvd. South
Fort Myers, FL 33965-6565

Registration for transient students begins each term on the same date as non-degree students (refer to the Academic Calendar).

If we receive your Transient Form more than two weeks prior to the start of term, a letter will be mailed back to you containing your PIN number and instructions explaining how to register online. If your transient form is received within two weeks of the start of term, you will be required to come in person to receive this information.

 

Q: What is meant by proof of Immunization?
 

As a prerequisite to matriculation or registration, the State University System of Florida requires all students born after December 31, 1956 to present documented proof of immunity to measles (rubeola) and rubella. Proof includes the Immunization History form (FORMS), properly completed, stamped and signed by your qualified health care provider OR records from Health departments, health care offices, or schools.

The completed form and documents can be either mailed or faxed to:

Student Health Services
Florida Gulf Coast University
10501 FGCU BLVD. South
Fort Myers, FL 33965-6565.
