Go Beyond All Expectations
MCC has expanded its partnership with the Florida Institute of Technology to allow juniors and seniors to begin their college career while enrolled in high school. This collaboration enables qualified MCC students to enroll in Florida Tech and earn up to 24 credit hours at no additional tuition cost.
Florida Institute of Technology is ranked a Tier One Best National University by U.S. News & World Report. Through this opportunity, students gain access to first-rate faculty and state-of-the-art research and laboratories.
Qualifying MCC students attend classes during the school day on the Florida Tech campus in collaboration with their traditional high school classes at MCC. The entrance
requirements for rising seniors and juniors includes admission to Florida Tech, a minimum of a B in related high school coursework, required SAT or ACT scores and a
counselor recommendation. Credits taken at Florida Tech may be used to fulfill MCC graduation requirements.
During the spring of their sophomore or junior year, interested students will work directly with MCC Student Services to begin the application process. Once accepted, students will be required to attend MCC/Florida Tech Orientation.
In addition to credit hours, MCC students may be eligible to earn an MCC Honors Diploma and enter college as a sophomore. They will also be guaranteed admission to a
Florida Tech degree program if at least 6 semester credit hours have been completed with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher.
