You’re Admitted! What’s Next?


Proof of Residency

Complete and return the Florida Residency Declaration and copies of supporting documents to Enrollment Services as soon as possible, and especially before the fee payment deadline. This allows you to be considered for in-state tuition, which is 70% less than out-of-state tuition. Until this is completed, you will be classified as a non-Florida resident and assessed tuition at the out-of-state rate. You cannot submit residency once classes have started for a term, and you will have to apply for reclassification for the next term. To allow time to review and process your documents, please submit these documents as soon as possible

See the Florida Residency Requirements page for form and acceptable documents. Submit your form and document to Enrollment Services as directed on the form.

College Transcripts for Transfer Students

Submit transcripts for all colleges you previously attended to Enrollment Services. We will evaluate your college transcripts for transfer credit as they are received and notify you at your wolves email account upon completion. This step is necessary to receive advising, financial aid, and the ability to register for classes.

Submit to: Office of Enrollment Services
149 SE College Place, Lake City, FL 32025

Financial Aid

Placement Testing

Schedule an appointment if you are not exempt from placement testing (as shown below) or have not completed college-level math and English courses. To access test prep materials and to schedule an exam, go to the Test Center. The Test Center is located in Building 7 and may be contacted at test.center@smartdurak.com or 386-754-7378.

• Student is serving as an active duty member of any branch of the United States Armed Services.

Advising & Registration

All new or returning students are required to meet with an academic advisor prior to registration. Advisors will guide you on selecting the right classes for your program of study. Placement scores, if required, must be on file for advising and registration. To determine the advisor for your program, visit the Advising Guide and schedule an appointment. Once you’ve met with an advisor, you’ll be able to register for classes in MyFGC.

Accessibility Services

Students with disabilities are not required to disclose their disability; however, voluntary disclosure is encouraged in order to provide as many services as possible to enable student success. Student disability information remains confidential. .

For more information, visit the Accessibility Services or visit the office located in Building 007.

NEW STUDENT Orientation

Orientation is the perfect way to become familiar with campus, services, staff and more! Check out the New Student Orientation page for upcoming orientation dates and to sign up.

Student ID

Once you’re registered, visit Student Activities in The Hall (bldg. 7) to have your student ID made. A driver’s license and student schedule is needed to obtain your student ID.

Fee Payment

Classes must be paid for by the term’s fee due date (shown on the Academic Calendar) to avoid being dropped from your classes. Click here for information on tuition, how to pay and payment deadlines.

Access Your Student accounts

You will receive your college assigned email and password in your admission packet. The login information is needed to sign into the MyFGC portal, which gives you access to My Courses, Wolves Email, Student Self-Service and more. Make sure to monitor your email throughout your time as a student, as the college will use it as a primary method of communication.
