It’s that time of the year- Summer & Fall 2021 starters will be receiving an email detailing their transition over to faculty advising now that we are nearing the end of their first year at Florida Tech. These students will now work with their academic department for all advising- and registration-related matters for Summer 2022 semester and beyond.

It has been an absolute pleasure working with you all and we wish you the best in your future endeavors both on and off campus!

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day! Even though Florida Tech is closed in observance of MLK Day, here are some fun facts you should know about the civil rights activist

Can you believe the spring semester begins next week?! 😱
A quick tip from FYE is to double-check your schedule in PAWS to 1) make sure you’re registered for all of your spring courses, 2) know what time they’re all being held at, and 3) know where the classes will be located.

Don’t know where to go? Our online campus map can help you out! 🧭
