BRIGHT FUTURES SCHOLARSHIPS FAQs
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to recent changes by the Florida Legislature, Florida Academic Scholars (FAS) will NO LONGER pay 100% of tuition and other college-related expenses. The Florida Medallion Scholars (FMS) and the Florida Gold Seal Vocational Scholars (GSV) will NO LONGER pay 75% of tuition.
These Bright Futures Scholars will now receive a flat rate amount towards tuition. Under the new system, the Academic Scholars will receive $126 per credit hour and the Florida Medallion Scholars and Florida Gold Seal Vocational Scholars will receive $95 per credit hour. This cost is about what students received in past years, but it does not cover recent tuition per credit hour beginning with the 2009-2010 academic year.
