The state of Florida requires students to take 9 credit hours during the summer…any summer…while in school. It’s part of trying to get students off the 6 year plan back to a 4 year plan…lol. These hours do not have to be taken from/at your chosen school, nor do they have to be taken at any brick and mortar. They can be taken online. If you are going to take any hours at another school, online or in person, you must let ucf know because they must approve them ahead of time and you apply to that school as a transient student.
There are rules on how to exempt from this requirement…its not as simple as having lots of AP credits. If you get an exemption…get it in writing!
Living in towers is great, but if you don’t need it for summer, consider the other dorms. I think only towers and northview have full year contracts.
