It could be at the very least, another year for the school to receive accreditation. The average is 4 years and the paperwork was just submitted this summer. For out of state students, this could be problematic since they will not be eligible for federal student loans. In state students have lower in state tuition as well as Florida BrightFutures. It may also impact students ability to secure certain interships, jobs and attend grad. and professional schools. The school must show a 10 yr. growth plan to accomodate 5,000 students with labs, classrooms and dorms. This is entirely dependent upon securing funding from Tallahasse. As a Floridian and watching how this has been a highly contentious political football, I would hesitate in seriously considering attending until the school receives accreditation.
