2023-2024 Academic Calendar
Dates are subject to change; refer to the term class schedule. Additional dates and deadlines may be available on the Financial Aid webpages.
Classes require permission to register after the first class meeting. See admissions process page in the online class schedules for session begin and end dates.
Students who applied for financial aid and have not been awarded by the final tuition payment deadline date indicated will have their schedule canceled. Once the schedule is canceled, students must re-enroll and be prepared to pay for tuition and fees, plus late fees, from their own resources. Students can view their financial aid status in myFSCJ. Florida State College at Jacksonville complies with the Veterans Benefits and Transition Act of 2018 (38 USC 3679(e)).
Priority registration eligibility is based on the total number of credit hours already earned and all currently enrolled credit hours toward your degree, excluding prep classes.
VA students must submit necessary VA documentation to establish an active file. If you attempt to register and an error occurs, contact your campus Veterans Affairs Office or call (904) 632-3157 to make sure your VA file is active.
To ensure timely processing, courses must be dropped or withdrawn by 7 p.m. of the deadline date for each session.
