“Toward”
In some contexts, the word may indicate closeness; in others,
relative direction. Concerning the present state of Florida College,
its adjective context, which indicates progress, is most fitting.
Enclosed you will read of the progress toward providing the most
complete educational experience in the history of Florida College.
Our enrollment and retention of four-year students are headed
toward record levels, and we are quickly approaching several
necessary improvements of many of our facilities.
After considering these pages, I trust that you will share
in my excitement as Florida College continues in this direction.
I hope that your passion for this institution will inspire your
support as we shape the next generation toward learning, living
and leading His way.

HISTORY
Bachelor Degree Offerings
Florida College is building an impressive offering
of four-year programs. Presently, 15 offerings across
seven disciplines allow students to complete their
bachelor’s degree in an institution that places fear of
the Lord above the wisdom of man.
Enrollment
In its rich history, the College has only experienced four years
with enrollment numbers higher than the 2012–2013
school year. Recent enrollment growth and increases in donor
support coupled with careful financial oversight will allow
the school to operate on a surplus for this fiscal year.

This number doesn’t cut it in the classroom …
If we achieve this two-year average for donations from
four-year graduates, U.S. News & World Report will be inclined to
list Florida College as the “Most-Loved School” in the nation!
To encourage participation in this challenge, the College
has established the Senior Legacy Scholarship Fund to benefit
students seeking a bachelor’s degree at Florida College. Donations
received for the 65% challenge will contribute to this fund.
Akin Building
Health science professionals, medical doctors, dentists,
pharmacists, nurses, veterinarians, chiropractors—
all are possibilities as a result of study in our four-year
Health Sciences program. In an effort to provide the best labs
and equipment for these aspiring servants, the College is calling
on alumni and friends across the nation with a particular affinity
for these fields. Thus far, more than $500,000 has been raised
toward completing this $1.5 million project.
The transformation of Akin will be incredible.
The impact on future medical professionals will be priceless.
Florida College is unique in the world of higher education. Our emphasis on learning, living and leading His way
is unmatched by other schools. As we continue in this endeavor,
your assistance is needed now more than ever and will allow us to
continue to add staff, degree programs and improved facilities.
More importantly, your support will have a direct impact on the
lives of young students seeking to follow in the footsteps
of the Savior while expanding their horizons.
