If you are in Middle
School or High School... It is never too early to start thinking about college. Work closely with your school counselor to select courses that will prepare you to attend a local community college and transfer to UF. The majors in the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences are grounded in science and math therefore it is very important that you take as much science (e.g, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics) and math (e.g, Algebra, Trigonometry, and Pre Calculus) as possible while still in high school. These courses will prepare you for your community college degree. To become a student in one of our programs you will need to first complete an Associate in Arts degree (AA). The AA degree provides general education courses equivalent to those offered to freshman and sophomore students on the Gainesville campus of the University of Florida. When selecting courses at the community college you should work closely with your academic advisor and select courses that meet the specific admission requirements of the three programs we offer: Environmental Horticulture, Natural Resource Conservation, and Agricultural Education. Please reference the CALS Transfer Guide for major pre-requisites and community college course equivalencies.
For a
prerequisite checklist of our programs click on one of the following: UF/IFAS Milton campus partners with Pensacola Junior Ccollege, to provide a 2+2 education. Specifically, these partnerships allow students to obtain their first two years (AA) from the local community college then complete their baccalaureate degree through UF/IFAS Mitlon. This collaboration allows students to obtain a 4 year degree without leaving their community. A student may also elect to complete a graduate degree in our program. All courses are taught in a variety of mediums such as: on-site, videoconference, WebCT, and other distance education methods. In this way we cater to students who aren't not able to attend courses in Gainesville. |
