Students should apply early to ensure their application receives prompt consideration. Please note the following deadlines: Term Application Deadline Class start Fall 2025 Early Decision and Early Action: November 1, 2024 Regular Decision: February 1, 2025 Deposit: May 1, 2025 TBD Florida Memorial University welcomes applications from all interested and prospective students. Our Admission decisions are based primarily on an applicant’s academic promise as demonstrated by academic preparation, recommendation letter(s), and personal statement. SAT or ACT scores are recommended but not required, as Florida Memorial University utilizes a test optional admission policy. Required Documentation The Office of Admissions reviews applications and makes a determination of admittance or non-admittance. Admissions decisions are made on a rolling basis as applications are completed and all supporting documents are received. Factors affecting the enrollment decision include: • High school grade point average (GPA), optional Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT) scores, previous college performance, recommendations, interviews, student essays, and any other matters deemed relevant. • Applicants must provide official high school and college transcripts from all previous schools attended, whether or not credit was granted. Applicants completing their senior year of high school, and in some cases transfer applicants, may also self-report SAT/ACT scores on their application for 21 | P a g e admission. The high school transcript may be omitted for students who have at least 24 transferable credits from an accredited institution. • Applicants who attended foreign institutions must have coursework from the foreign institutions evaluated for U.S. institutional equivalence. For more information, see “International Students”. On receiving notification of acceptance, students should promptly submit a $200 enrollment deposit to be credited toward tuition. Freshman Application In addition to the documents described under the “Required Documentation” section above: 1. Freshman applicants must submit a non-refundable application fee of $25. The admissions application is available online at https://apply.fmuniv.edu/apply/. Florida Memorial University also accepts the Common Application and Common Black College Application. 2. Freshman applicants must submit all final, official transcripts reflecting proof of graduation and completed academic coursework prior to enrollment with final grades earned (e.g., current high- school transcript or GED equivalent). 3. Freshman applicants who opted to submit self-reported test scores for admission must also submit official SAT or ACT scores directly from the testing agency. 4. Conditionally Admitted Students: Applicants who are conditionally admitted must submit final high school transcripts and/or final college transcripts from all institutions attended to be considered for admission. Transfer Application Transfer applicants with at least 24 transferable credits must submit official, final college transcripts from all previous schools attended, reflecting final grades earned. If, at the time of application, students have any courses in progress at another institution, a final, official transcript must be submitted. Florida Memorial University accepts courses earned at other post-secondary institutions, provided that: • The grade earned for these courses is a “C” or higher. • The courses represent collegiate coursework relevant to the degree program being pursued at Florida Memorial University. • The course content, level of instruction, and resulting competencies are equivalent to those of students enrolled at Florida Memorial University; and • All transcripts are submitted to the University for evaluation prior to the transfer student’s admission to the University. A maximum of 90 credits total may be transferred to Florida Memorial University. The school’s Dean and the Provost must approve all transfer credits used toward a degree. A minimum of 25% of the credit hours required for a student’s degree must be earned by instruction at Florida Memorial University. All final, official documents must be submitted by the final day of the drop and add period (August 28, 2023) for the student’s first semester at Florida Memorial University. 22 | P a g e Transfer Credits from International Institutions Postsecondary credits earned by international students at colleges and universities which pattern themselves after the British or other non- American education systems must be evaluated by an external transcript evaluation organization approved by Florida Memorial University. International Application International first-year students are admitted on the basis of high school work. International students must meet the requirements of the University as stated in the previous section and comply with the following. High School Transcripts An international applicant must have graduated from a high school or secondary school. An official transcript and/or original diploma are required. High School Work International students who studied in the British educational system should have passed a minimum of five (5) subjects at the ordinary level in the General Certificate Examination or its equivalent, including English and mathematics. If student transcripts are not in English, students will also need to submit an official translation of their transcripts. Evaluations must be conducted through a member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). 23 | P a g e Financial Aid Financial Aid is money in the form of scholarships, grants, work-study (part-time on campus employment to be used solely for school-related expenses), and loans awarded to assist students who otherwise would not be able to afford the cost of attending college. Financial Aid is awarded according to an individual’s financial need and/or academic excellence. The Office of Financial Aid is located in the Student Services Building, Suite 159. Its primary objective is to ensure available funds are provided to eligible students in order that they may have access to a Florida Memorial University education. The University expects the family (parents and students) to assume the primary responsibility for financing the cost of attending college. We recognize that most families need assistance. The amount of help needed is determined by calculating the family’s ability to pay. That amount, called the Student Aid Index (SAI), plus other outside funds that may be available to the student, is subtracted from the allowable cost of attendance. The resulting difference is called “Financial Need.” We normally package (or combine), the various forms of financial aid in the following order: scholarships, grants, work-study and loans. Some of these funds are limited and students are encouraged to apply early for financial aid. Apply for FAFSA Students should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at studentaid.gov annually. It traditionally becomes available each October 1 for aid in the following award year. Florida Memorial University’s federal school code is 001486. The earlier students apply, the better chance they have of being considered for the maximum available funds. To apply for Florida grants and scholarships, undergraduate students must provide supporting documentation and complete a scholarship application. Student Alert Students are expected to review their school email and log in to their portal at https://my.fmuniv.edu/ICS/Student/ regularly and review their financial aid status to ensure that there are no outstanding documents. Students who must submit additional documents will be notified via email. Evaluation and Awarding Process The Office of Financial Aid will determine the student’s allowable educational expenses according to the Student Aid Index (SAI). Florida Memorial University will provide eligible financial aid awards for all or a portion of the demonstrated need in the form of an Award Letter consisting of grants, scholarships, work-study, and loans. Students must accept, decline, or modify their loans. The financial aid award letter provides students with instructions on how to accept, decline or modify their student loans. Loan awards will not be disbursed until this step has been completed. In addition, if loans are accepted students must also complete a Direct Loan Master Promissory Note (MPN) and entrance counseling at studentaid.gov. Distribution of Funds The disbursement date is scheduled for the first week after the drop/add period has ended. Based on the information provided on the FAFSA by the student and parents, the Office of Financial Aid at Florida Memorial University will award all funds the student is eligible to receive. FAFSA status must be accepted, and all 24 | P a g e documentation indicated as required on the student’s FSS/ISIR report must be provided to the financial aid office. The student is responsible to complete all requirements for each fund before disbursement can occur. Satisfactory Academic Progress In order to receive financial assistance, a student must continually meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) requirements established by the Department of Education. Two major components are evaluated in the determination of satisfactory academic progress: 1. The qualitative component is the student’s Grade Point Average (GPA) displayed on the academic transcript. 2. The quantitative component is the maximum timeframe in which a student is expected to complete his/her degree program. Florida Memorial University Office of Financial Aid reviews student records on a semester basis for federal and institutional programs and at the end of the academic year for all state programs. Students who do not achieve satisfactory academic progress will be notified. The minimum number of semester hours per academic year is 21 semester hours for the Federal programs, and 24 semester hours for Florida programs-Florida Student Assistance Grant (FSAG), Effective Access to Student Education Grant. (EASE), and Mary McLeod Bethune (MMB) Programs. Additionally, a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 for freshmen and 2.0 for all others must be maintained for all Federal programs. For the Florida programs, all students must maintain a 2.0 cumulative GPA. Enrollment Status To receive financial aid a student enrollment status is determined as follows: Undergraduate Enrollment Status: 1. Full-time 12 or more credit hours 2. Three-quarter time 9 to 11 credit hours 3. One-half time 6 to 8 credit hours 4. Less than half time 3 to 5 credits hours Only credits pertaining to the program enrolled will count towards the academic load. Students enrolled on an undergraduate degree, who carry fewer than (6) credit hours are ineligible for the Federal Direct Loans Programs. Students are not eligible to be awarded Year-Round Pell if enrollment status is determined as less than half-time. Non-Degree Seeking Students Students who are enrolled as special (non-degree seeking) students are NOT ELIGIBLE for any type of financial aid programs. Withdrawals Distribution of Financial Aid is determined in accordance with student’s attendance. Financial Aid awards will be recalculated for students who withdraw from their classes. If a percentage of semester attendance is lower 25 | P a g e than 60%, federal aid will be reduced according to the Return of Title IV calculation, which may rest in a bill from Florida Memorial University. International Students International students are not eligible for federal or state aid. They may, however, qualify for institutional scholarships and may participate in the Institutional College Work-Study Program (INSTWS). Financial Aid Programs Grants and scholarships generally do not have to be repaid. However, if a student drops or withdraws from any classes for which financial aid has been received, the student may have to return the funds. Grants do not require repayment or work obligation. Institutional scholarships are also available to help students fund the cost of attending FMU. Generally, scholarships are awarded to students who meet particular criteria for qualification, such as academic achievement, financial need, field of study, talent, or athletic ability. Students must meet all scholarship requirements including any required grade point average (GPA) and must be enrolled full-time in degree- applicable coursework by the end of the drop/add period. If scholarship awards exceed tuition charges the university will reduce the institutional award(s) accordingly. For more information, students should visit the financial aid website https://www.fmuniv.edu/admissions/financial-aid/types-of-aid/ Federal Work Study awards allow students to earn a portion of their educational expenses through part-time employment with eligible on-campus employers. Hours cannot exceed 25 hours, and all students must complete an application for FWS employment. Student Loans, unlike a grant and work-study, are borrowed money that must be repaid with interest. Student loan repayment is a legal obligation. Before deciding to accept a loan, students should determine the amount that needs to be repaid on the loan. Non-Florida Residents Additional financial aid may be available to non-Florida residents through their state of permanent residence. Students should contact their appropriate State Department of Education for additional Information. Student Orientation A collaborative effort between the Offices of Student and Academic Affairs is designed to help entering freshman and new/transfer students become adjusted and make a successful transition to university life at Florida Memorial University. During the orientation period, students attend a series of workshops, seminars, and social activities where they are presented information about the University’s history, support centers, services, facilities, testing, and placement. Students are also presented with University policies and regulations, introductions to University personnel in both formal and informal settings and are assigned an academic advisor who assists them throughout the year. Registration is also an integral component of the orientation program. The objective of the orientation period is to provide students with information that will help them cope with the independence and responsibility of becoming a university student. 26 | P a g e Anti-Hazing Policy Hazing of students will not be a part of any initiation practices, whether for new students, social clubs, or Greek- letter organizations. Hazing done in the name of an organization can result in the organization’s loss of privileges, including suspension of its operating privileges on campus. Hazing done by a student as an independent act can result in the student’s dismissal from the University. Violation of this regulation must be reported to the Vice President for Student Affairs. All cases involving hazing will be referred to the Judicial Affairs Committee. Grievance Procedures for Students Florida Memorial University has adopted an internal grievance procedure providing for the prompt and equitable resolution of complaints alleging any action prohibited by this anti-hazing policy and/or conduct in violation of Title VI, Title VII, Title IX, Section 504, the Age Discrimination Act, and the Americans with Disability Act. The following university officials have been designated to respond to allegations regarding any such violation: The Vice President for Student Affairs, The Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs, the Director of Human Resources Management, or the Counseling Center Coordinator. Complaints alleging misconduct as defined in this policy should be reported within 90 days of the alleged offense. Complainants may seek informal or formal resolution. All complainants must complete a written Discriminatory Harassment Report in the form of a memorandum. The report must include the name of the person or office alleged to have committed the offense, the date(s) or time period of the offenses, specific examples of the offending behavior(s) or actions, and the complainant’s contact information. Complainants are encouraged to explore an informal resolution before filing a formal complaint. An informal resolution focuses on communication and education, while formal procedures focus on investigation and discipline. Informal complaints will be resolved within 15 working days with a written resolution given to each of the parties involved. If the situation results in an impasse, complainants will be given a notice of impasse with 15 working days from the filing of the incident. If a notice of impasse is given and complainants wish to file a formal written complaint, complainants must do so within 30 working days of the date of notice of impasse unless a waiver in filing time is requested. When a formal complaint is filed, an investigation will be initiated. The person accused of misconduct will be given 10 days to provide a signed response to the requesting official. A copy will be provided to the complainant. If the alleged fails to respond, the presumption will be made that the allegation(s) in the complaint are true. A written determination will be issued to the complainant within 60 working days of the receipt of the formal written complaint. If the procedure requires an extension of time, the complainant will be informed in writing of the reasons, the status of the investigation, and the probable date of completion. If complainants dispute the findings or are dissatisfied with the recommendations, complainants may request reconsideration of the case to the president in writing within 45 working days of receipt of the written determination. Complainants also have the right to file with the appropriate state or federal authorities as set forth in the applicable statutes. Cases that may require disciplinary action will be handled in accordance to the established discipline procedures of the University. Student organizations in violation of this policy may be subject to the loss of university recognition. Complainants shall be protected from unfair retribution. Nothing in this policy statement is intended to infringe on the individual rights, freedom of speech, or academic freedom provided to members of the Florida Memorial community. The scholarly, educational, or artistic content of any written or oral 27 | P a g e presentation or inquiry shall not be limited by this policy. Accordingly, this provision will be liberally construed but should not be used as a pretext for violation of this policy. Student Concerns and Complaint Policies This policy provides a process for students to raise concerns and file complaints when they are dissatisfied with a University service, or policy, or an action by a University employee. The process aims to be constructive and positive in resolving differences and working toward a better community at Florida Memorial University. This policy covers academic and non-academic matters except in areas where other formal policies and procedures take precedence. These other policies include the Grade Appeal Policy, Policy Prohibiting Discrimination and Harassment, Standards of Conduct, and the Honor Code. General principles • Whenever possible and in a timely manner, students should raise concerns informally with the faculty member, staff member, or other student involved. • If the student is unsuccessful with informal resolution, the complaint should be taken to the appropriate division chair, then school dean, or, if necessary, vice president who will handle student complaints as quickly and as fairly as possible. • As a measure of good faith, students should be prepared to make their identities known when they raise concerns or complaints. Matters raised anonymously will not be addressed formally. • There will be no adverse effect on or retaliation against a student raising a concern or complaint in good faith or against any person who in good faith provides information regarding a concern or complaint. • Written complaints will receive written responses within 30 days and will be kept on file. Procedures • Academic matters: If a student has a complaint or concern about a course or faculty member, it should be directed first to the appropriate division chair or school dean, then to the provost. If the student has a complaint about an academic policy or its enforcement, it should be addressed to the office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. • Non-academic matters: If a student has a complaint or concern about a non-academic matter, it should be addressed to the Vice President for Student Affairs.
