Admitted Students

Look for an email from FGCU's Information Technology Services with information on how to activate your EagleMail account and access Gulfline. It should arrive in your inbox within 2 to 3 days of receipt of this email. In Gulfline you will complete student-related tasks, like paying your deposit and course registration with the University. Your EagleMail account serves as your official University email account.

The Freshman deposit deadline for fall was May1st.   FGCU understands the uncertainty caused by COVID-19 and will continue to take enrollment deposits until we fill all seats in the class of 2024.  We want to accommodate as many future Eagles as we can based on available space.

In order to accept your offer of admission, you must submit a $200 non-refundable Admissions Deposit. In Gulfline, select the "Pay Admissions Deposit" tab. Pay with an e-check (no fee) or with a credit card (2.85% service charge). Once you pay your Admissions Deposit, we will hold a seat for you and you will move forward in the new student process.

All new students must attend Eagle View Orientation (EVO). Directions on how to register for an orientation session for the Summer and Fall semesters will be sent out starting in February. We will begin sending the EVO email in October for students enrolling in the Spring semester. Register for EVO as soon as you can in order to have the best selection of courses. Orientation is held in late fall for the Spring term and throughout the summer for the Summer and Fall terms.

If you plan to live on campus, do not wait to apply for housing! We have three housing options: apartment-style living in North Lake or West Lake Villages or suite-style living in South Village, which features our First Year Residential Experience.

All students must establish residency as a Florida Resident or non-Florida resident for tuition purposes. All new students are considered non-Florida residents until proper documentation is received. Non-Florida residents also need to fill out the information. If a student is a dependent, the parent is the claimant and will complete the Residency Form and provide evidence of residency supporting the claim. If the student is independent, the student is the claimant and will complete the form and provide evidence of residency supporting the claim.
