Florida Institute of Technology

Florida Tech has received several reports that search engines’ AI-generated results may incorrectly describe the university as “test optional.” This is an error generated by third-party artificial intelligence tools and does not reflect Florida Tech’s admissions policy.

Florida Tech requires applicants for undergraduate admission to submit SAT, ACT, or CLT scores. Prospective students should rely on official information published on our website or contact the Office of Undergraduate Admission directly for the most accurate and up-to-date requirements.

Florida Tech stands for student success! We want to see our students excel in their classes, graduate on time and be well-prepared for a great job. To that end, the university strives to admit undergraduate applicants who demonstrate a high propensity to succeed in a rigorous, dynamic, hands-on learning environment. For first-year applicants, academic performance in high school is the best predictor of future success at Florida Tech.

Transcripts are the most important element of your application. More than anything else, we need to see that you have completed a strong high school curriculum and demonstrated achievement in college preparatory classes. Florida Tech does not specify a minimum required grade point average, class rank or standardized test score, but these elements are duly evaluated for admission and merit scholarship consideration.
