The first step in returning to FGCU to take additional coursework is filling out the appropriate readmission application.
If you are only returning to apply for an AA or for graduation, please fill out the appropriate application through the Office of Records and Registration!

After you are readmitted, you will be contacted by a Student Navigator. They are there to help with any questions and through every step of your return!

Fill out the FAFSA and the Foundation Scholarship application. Be sure to mark that you are a Return to the Nest student in the scholarship application as you may be eligible for additional funding.

Either in your original major or on a potentially faster path! Be sure to meet with an Academic Advisor to confirm your course selection. 

Get Involved with FGCU, earn Digital Badges, earn Service Learning Hours, etc!


It is time to reinvest in you.
