Returning/Readmit College Student
You are a returning/readmit student if you applied to FGC one or more years ago and have not completed courses in the past year. We’re glad to have you back! Please follow the steps below as you plan your FGC educational career. Keep in mind that only the first two enrollment steps (apply and high school transcript) are required for admission, but some remaining steps can be completed simultaneously to expedite your enrollment. Remember that we are here to help you through this process and your success is important to us.

High School Transcript
Send official high school transcript to Enrollment Services, Florida Gateway College, 149 SE College Place, Lake City, FL 32025. If you had official transcripts sent directly to you, do not open them. You will need to send the official transcript, in an unopened envelope, to Enrollment Services through the U.S. mail.
Transcripts provided during your previous enrollment process will not be needed again.
College Transcript
Send official transcripts from all previously attended colleges to Enrollment Services, Florida Gateway College, 149 SE College Place, Lake City, FL 32025. If you had official transcripts sent directly to you, do not open them. You will need to send the official transcript, in the unopened envelope, to Enrollment Services through the U.S. mail. Transcripts provided during your previous enrollment process will not be needed again.
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.
If you earned college-level coursework outside of the United States, a course-by-course evaluation report from a NACES-approved evaluation service is required. Contact Enrollment Services for more information.
Acceptance Letter
Receive your letter of acceptance that will include important login information for your MyFGC Portal, as well as steps following admission.
Financial Aid
Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) whether you think you are eligible or not. Many scholarship opportunities at FGC require a completed FAFSA. Check this step off your list as early as possible, as this may be completed prior to admission.
FGC school code: 001501. Visit Financial Aid for more
Proof of Residency
This requirement allows you to be considered for in-state tuition rates. You may complete this step when you apply for admission by submitting the residency form and documents. Proving residency reduces your tuition by over 70%. For example, a 3 credit class will cost $310 instead of $1,175.
Residency declaration and supporting documentation may be submitted to Enrollment Services through mail, email, or fax. Mailing address: Enrollment Services, Florida Gateway College, 149 SE College Place, Lake City, FL 32025. Email address: enrollment.services@fgc.edu. Fax: 386-754-4581.
Placement Testing
ACT, SAT, and PERT test scores may be used for placement into college-level courses if the test was taken in the past two years. To access test prep materials and to schedule an exam, go to Test Center. The Test Center is located in Building 7 and may be contacted at test.center@fgc.edu or 386-754-7378.
If you started 9th grade in the 2003-2004 school year or later at a Florida public high school, and graduated from a Florida, public high school with a standard high school diploma, you may be exempt from Placement testing in accordance with Senate Bill 1720. Advisors still recommend all students placement test prior to the first term of registration in order to determine where you should start in college-level courses in order to be successful.
Advising
We want to make sure you have a plan in place to reach your goals! An advising appointment to discuss your academic plan is required before you register. Schedule your appointment with the appropriate advisor depending upon your program of study. Check the Advising Guide to determine your advisor.
Register for Classes
Register through your MyFGC Portal or in person at the Office of Enrollment Services in Bldg. 15.
