Thirty (30) credit hours of upper division course work must be completed at FAU in order to be awarded a Bachelor’s Degree. If you are transferring in with an Associate of Arts from a non-public Florida University or an Associate of Science from any university (in-state or out-of-state), you may have additional core classes that are required by the university. At the time of application, a program assistant will review with you to determine if you will need to incorporate it within your curriculum.

Civic Literacy Requirement:

The 2021 Florida Legislature amended the statute for satisfying the Civic Literacy requirement.  Effective Summer 3, 2021, students in the State University System (SUS) and any Florida College System (FCS) are now required to complete both a civic literacy course and exam.
