Transient applications may be submitted no earlier than one semester in advance of the term for which the applicant is seeking admission. Deadlines for each semester are as follows:

Spring:December 1
Summer:April 1
Fall:August 1

Approved applications may be faxed to the Office of Admissions (850.644.0197) to meet the deadline; however, the original copy must also be mailed. Registration for courses at Florida State is on a space available basis.

This program enables students to take advantage of special resources and/or programs not available at their home institution. An interinstitutional transient student, by mutual agreement of the appropriate academic authorities in both the sponsoring and hosting institution, will receive a waiver of standard admission requirements of the host institution and a guarantee of acceptance of earned resident credits by the sponsoring institution. Interinstitutional transient students must be recommended by their own academic dean, who will initiate a visiting arrangement with the appropriate dean at the host institution. Students will register at the host institution, paying tuition and/or registration fees established by that institution. The approval of one institution does not bind the other to comply.

Note: Students may not dual enroll in both institutions. Dual enrollment for this purpose is defined as seeking formal admission to two institutions at the same time for the purpose of graduating with degrees from both institutions. For more information, students are advised to contact their academic dean or the Office of Admissions, which is located at A2500 University Center.
