Foreword
THIS BULLETIN has been published in response to many
requests from principals, guidance counselors, teachers, and
students. This is a revision of the original Guide to Florida
Scholarships published jointly by the Florida Industrial Com-
mission and the State Department of Education in 1957. In addi-
tion to simplifying the format and up-dating the information
about scholarships, this bulletin has been expanded to include
information on (1) planning for college, (2) choosing a career,
(3) selecting a college, (4) admission requirements, (5) cost of
college attendance, (6) historical background and degrees offered
by Florida colleges, and (7) a list of private schools approved
by the State Approval Agency. It is hoped that the addi-
tional information will prove beneficial to the students and
faculty who have occasion to use this bulletin.
The average Florida high school student planning to attend
college today must give careful consideration to several difficult
problems. For the first time in the history of this state, college
facilities are inadequate to accommodate the students who desire
admission. In 1957 there were 50,000 students enrolled in institu-
tions of higher learning in Florida. In 1960 the enrollment had
increased to 68,000. From reliable studies conducted by the
Florida Board of Control it is estimated that in 1965 Florida's
college enrollment will be 122,000 and in 1970, 158,000.
Much careful planning is being done to provide for the increas-
ing numbers wanting to enter college. The state-wide system of
junior colleges, the new state universities at Tampa and Boca
Raton, the new private colleges in St. Petersburg and Sarasota,
and the expanded facilities at the existing public and private
institutions of higher learning are all part of the effort of the
citizens of this State to provide essential higher educational op-
portunities for its youth.
Recent advances in the scientific and technical fields of
knowledge have brought revolutionary changes in career
planning. It has been estimated that there are more than 40,000
vocational careers in the United States. Most of these require
specialized training and more than ever before require college
level training.
With increasing college enrollment there is a trend toward
more selective admission requirements and higher cost. Prospec-
tive college students should begin early in high school to plan
their program of study to meet the admission requirements of
the college they wish to attend. They must also begin well in
advance of enrollment to investigate the cost of college attendance
and initiate plans for financing it.
The richest natural resource of our state and nation is the
raw brainpower of our youth. To insure the continuation and
advancement of our democratic society, it is imperative that
the talents of all youth be developed and utilized as fully as possi-
ble. The adult citizens must assist in providing facilities and
environment for this development. However, the degree to which
one is able to refine and develop his talents is determined by
his individual desire for growth. Thus, each of our youth must
recognize and accept as his personal responsibility the maxi-
mum development and utilization of his talents for the improve-
ment of himself and his society.
Appreciation is expressed to officials of the colleges and or-
ganizations sponsoring scholarships who furnished information
about individual scholarships and loans. Without the assistance
of these persons this publication would not have been possible.

CHAPTER 1
Planning in High School for College
EACH YEAR several thousand Florida high school students
wrestle with the question, "Should I go to college?" Plan-
ning for college must now begin earlier than ever before. Some
students begin planning in elementary school. No one who
really expects to go to college should wait later than the
beginning of the ninth grade to initiate specific plans.
If you have not already reached a decision about going to
college, you will want to make sure that the decision you reach
is the "right" decision for you. Making this decision will require
much careful planning by you, your family, and your school.
The following suggestions should help you to make the "right"
decision.
You must remember that going to college is strictly volun-
tary. Compulsory school attendance ends on the sixteenth birth-
day in Florida. The decision to continue formal education be-
yond this time is left entirely to you and your parents. Because
of this, the attitude toward the student in college is different
from that in elementary and secondary school. The college feels
that no one should apply for admission who is not willing to
devote his full time and energy to the pursuit of academic
excellence. You go to college because you want to go.
Colleges have always set their entrance standards. Because
of the increasing number of students applying for admission to
colleges the minimum entrance requirements are continually
being raised. The college will accept only the best of those who
apply. Less than ten years ago any graduate of an accredited
Florida high school could be admitted to a State university.
He may not have remained after first semester examinations,
but he was assured of the opportunity to prove to himself and
to others his ability to pass college courses.
This is no longer possible in Florida. Today only the top
40 out of each 100 Florida high school graduates may be admitted
to State universities. (Special qualifying procedures are estab-
lished for those who rank below this level and wish to seek
admission.) Because of limited quotas for freshmen students and
housing shortages, only the best of the top 40 per cent or those
who apply at least a year in advance are usually admitted. Each
year many applicants who meet college entrance requirements
are turned away. Most of these turned away failed to make
application early enough.
Should You Go to College?
The first step in deciding whether or not you should go to
college is to learn where you stand academically in your class
and school. If you are in the top one-fourth of your class you
perhaps will be able to get admitted to a college, if you apply
early enough. You may not be accepted at the college of your first
choice; therefore, you may wish to apply to two or more colleges
at the same time. You can be sure of getting into your first-
choice college only if you are a straight "A" student and apply
early enough.
A guide to your potential academic ability is the score you
earn on the Florida State-Wide Ninth Grade Test. If your score
is above the sixtieth percentile, you should be able to meet
college entrance requirements. Your school may have other
standardized tests that will help you to determine your academic
ability, aptitudes, and interests.
In thinking about whether or not you should go to college
you need to give careful consideration to how you think you
will best enjoy earning a living. If you desire a career in one
of the professions, such as teaching, nursing, law, medicine, etc.,
you will need college training. The same is true for most of the
careers in scientific or technical fields of employment. If the
vocation you wish to follow as a career does not require college-
level training, you should not, in most instances, spend four
years in college before getting started in your career.
Why Go to College?
Approximately one-third of the students of high school age
in Florida do not receive a high school diploma. The job oppor-
tunities for these persons as adults are becoming fewer and fewer
each year. Even the high school graduate who does not have
some specialized training is at a considerable disadvantage on
the labor market today. As automation progresses, jobs require
more skill, training, and intelligence. It is important that you
study carefully several careers before you choose the one best
suited to your interests and aptitudes.
There is a shortage of college-trained individuals in almost
every community in Florida. The demand for individuals who
have professional or technical training beyond high school is
greater today than ever before. The average life-time earnings
of a college graduate is $100,000 more than the average life-time
earnings of a high school graduate. The opportunity of securing
a job in which you may expect advancement and be in a position
to influence social and political change is much greater for the
college graduate than for the individual who has no formal
education beyond high school. In spite of the advantages avail-
able to the college graduate, fewer than one out of five of today's
high school graduates receive a college degree.
Planning Your High School Program
If you want to go to college you must plan your high school
program of studies very carefully. Many large high schools today
offer a comprehensive curriculum designed to meet as nearly
as possible the educational needs of all the students enrolled.
It is important for those who plan to go to college to take a
selective college preparatory course. The exact courses you take
should be determined by the entrance requirements of the college
you wish to attend and the career for which you plan to prepare.
You should plan your program carefully with the assistance of
your guidance counselor or faculty advisor. If you have not chosen
a career or college, you should concentrate your high school
studies on English grammar and composition, the natural sciences,
mathematics, social studies, and languages.
Your decision to attend college should rest entirely upon
your individual ability and desire; however, you may find it
helpful to compare your class with other high schools in the
state. The per cent of Florida high school graduates entering
college in 1960-61 ranged from 98.6 in one county down to 9.1
in another. However, 48.8 per cent of all 1960 Florida high
school graduates entered college in 1960-61. The tables on the
following pages show the number of Florida high school grad-
uates in each county in 1960; also the number and the percent
from each county who went to college.

CHAPTER 2
Choosing a Career
IN THE EARLY period of the development of the United
States and Florida there was a relatively small number of
careers from which one could choose his life's work. Recent
advances in the scientific and technical fields have brought vast
changes in many careers and have created many new careers. It
is estimated that there are more than 40,000 vocational careers
in the United States today. Most of these require specialized
training and more than ever before require college-level training.
Because of the large number of career opportunities and the
pressure for students to decide in high school what they are
going to do for the rest of their lives, many become confused and
discouraged.
Don't let this happen to you. In spite of what you may have
been led to believe, you don't have to decide your entire future
while you are in high school. You must decide only what your
immediate future will be. Career planning should be thought
of as life planning. Plan your career one step at a time for the
rest of your life, but not all of your life at one time. Very few
high school students have enough information to choose their
life's work all at once. Don't be misled by those in your class
who seem to be so sure about their career choice. Most of them
will change their plans as they acquire more information and
experience.
The best way to begin planning for your career is to decide
what you yourself really want to do. No person is ever successful
doing what he does not enjoy. Don't let immediate financial
considerations dominate your choice of a career. If you like your
job, you will work harder, think about your job more, have more
good ideas, produce more, progress further faster, and your
income will increase more rapidly. Don't let pressure from your
friends or family force you into a career in which you have no
interest. When a person is in a job he dislikes, he becomes moody
and nervous, tires easily, has indigestion and insomnia, becomes
rebellious and grows sour on the world. Forcing yourself to work
at a job you dislike is exhausting.
Your high school guidance counselor can help show you how
to go about defining your career desires, but only you can make
the decision. You must examine your inner desires, interests, and
abilities and apply them to the things you want to do. You will
only become confused if you select a vocation and try to adapt
your interests and aptitudes to it.
As a rule, a person's natural abilities point in the same direc-
tion as his likes and dislikes. In all probability you have the
basic abilities to succeed in the kind of job you are most enthu-
siastic about.
It is usually wise to withhold revealing your career desires at
first, even to your family. It is not good to get yourself publicly
committed to some goal you may want to change later. It is
better to say "I haven't decided" than to give some choice just
to have your family and friends pleased. Any attempt to follow
the whims and wishes of others usually results in confusion. If
you hold to the thoughts that you find to be sound, you will be
more likely to develop a purpose and a character of your own.
The world respects the person who has the courage to be himself.
You can do anything you want, within reason, if you want to do
it badly enough. Your greatest energy comes when you want
tremendously to do that very thing which you are doing, and
want to do it well.
Remember that whatever your career choice may be it is best
planned one step at a time rather than planning your entire
life at once.
Reproduced here is a list of sources of career information.
This list was compiled by the Child Welfare Committee of the
American Legion and published in their pamphlet, Need A Lift?,
1961. You may wish to write for free literature in the areas of
greatest interest to you.

CHAPTER 3
How to Select a College
S ELECTING a college is simple and easy for only a small
number of students. If you are among those who find it dif-
ficult to decide which college is best for you, the following
suggestions may prove helpful.
Which Type of College is Best for You?
One of the questions most students face is whether to go to a
large college or a small college. There has been much said about
large colleges versus small colleges. Some small colleges recruit-
ing officers advise that "at the small college you get to know
your professors as people as well as teachers." It is doubtful
that this is a valid reason for selecting one college over another.
Experience shows that students seldom know more than two
or three professors very well, regardless of the size of the college.
At a large college you will know only a few people intimately.
You will join a small clique in your dorm, club, fraternity, soro-
rity, or church, and within this clique you will find your college
social life. The other thousands will be little more than names in
a telephone directory. In a small college you will form close
friendship with a small social group and the other hundreds will
mean little more to you than fellow spectators at a ball game.
The question does not seem to be the size of the college but
the size of you. The friendship that you make will be just as
deep and just as lasting as you make them no matter where you
may go.
Another question for many students is whether to go to a
private college or a state college. This is a matter both of pref-
erence and of money. Usually state colleges are less expensive.
(See list of colleges with average annual cost at the end of this
chapter.) The difference in cost is the tuition. In Florida the
State furnishes the major portion of the salaries and operating
funds for the state colleges and universities. All other expenses
-room, board, books, clothes, and incidentals-are about the
same in all colleges. The quality of instruction in the average
private college and the average state college is about the same.
All church-related colleges are considered private. Private
colleges, and church-related colleges in particular, try to provide
something more than is available at the state colleges. The
atmosphere is different at the church-related college. Usually
the rules are stricter, especially for women students. In political
and academic areas, there is usually much more freedom for
faculty and students in private colleges. If you are interested in
a career in church work you should go to a college of your own
faith. Church-related colleges seldom restrict enrollment to those
of a particular faith. Often they enroll more students of other
faiths than of their own.
State-supported junior colleges are relatively new in Florida.
During recent years many juniors colleges have been established
throughout the entire State. The programs are being developed
on sound educational principles and are designed to meet the
needs of students in both academic and technical areas of study.
The academic preparation of instructors at the junior colleges
is comparable to that of instructors at the same level at the
four-year colleges and universities. Usually there are no dor-
mitories at junior colleges; therefore, the social life at the
junior college is different from that at a college where many of
the students live in dormitories, sorority, and fraternity houses.
The program of studies at the junior college is closely correlated
with the first two years at four-year institutions so that very little
or no loss of credit occurs in transferring. You must remember,
however, that when you transfer to any college your credits
are usually accepted "on condition" until you have completed
a specified number of courses with satisfactory grades at the
receiving college. Most colleges will not accept transferred credits
where the grade earned is below "C." You must remember, also,
that in order to receive a degree from a four-year college you
must meet the graduation requirements of that college with-
out regard to regulations you may have met at a previous college.
Unless you plan very carefully, you may find that you will be
required to take an extra summer or semester of study to meet
some specific graduation requirement when you transfer from
one college to another.
If you are interested in a career which requires at least a
four-year college degree of technical training, such as nursing,
music, or engineering where specialized training begins early
in your college studies, you should select a college which has
an approved department offering a degree in your area of
specialization.
If you find that financing your college education is going to
be a problem, you should consider attending a junior college.
If you are not admitted to a four-year college because of late
application or lack of housing, you may find it advisable to
enroll in a junior college and apply for admission to the four-year
college at the beginning of the second semester or sophomore
year. Because of the drop-out rate during the freshman and
sophomore years it is often easier to get into a college as an
upper classman than it is as a freshman.
If you are definite about what you want to study, you should
try to get admitted to a college offering a strong program in your
field of study. If you are not sure about what you want to study,
you should plan to take a good liberal arts program of English
grammar and composition, literature, music, social science, and
language.
Steps in Selecting a College
The first step in selecting a college is to learn which colleges
are located in Florida and what they offer. If none of the
Florida colleges offer what you want, check with your guidance
counselor to learn the names of several out-of-state colleges
offering a degree in your area of interest.
When you have selected three or four colleges that appeal to
you and offer the program you want, write to the Director of
Admissions for a catalog. Study each catalog carefully for the
following information:
1. General admission requirements (number of units
required in each subject area and special requirements for
such areas as foreign languages).
2. Class standing and entrance tests requirements (Florida
Twelfth Grade Test, College Entrance Examination Board
Tests, or others).
3. Recommendations (high school principal, guidance
counselors, teachers, ministers).
4. Cost (total amount; low, average or high).
5. Estimated cost by items (tuition, room rent or transporta-
tion, meals, laundry, books, laboratory fees, student
activity fees, health).
When you have listed this information for each college, being
careful to check for unusual or special requirements, you are
in a position to begin seriously discussing with your family,
teachers, and others who have been to college, which of these
colleges is best for you.

CHAPTER 4
How to Apply for Admission to College
A PPLICATION for admission to college should be made nine
to twelve months prior to the beginning of the first term
in which you wish to enroll. Your application may be filed at
the end of your junior year or beginning of your senior year
in high school. September and October of your senior year are
perhaps the best months to apply to Florida colleges. Students
wishing to transfer from a junior college should file application
to the four-year college at least a full semester in advance.
Your application must be filed on special forms supplied by
the college to which you are seeking admission. Unless you
rank academically in the top 15 per cent of your class you may
need to apply to three or four colleges at the same time. Every
effort should be made to see that the instructions on the applica-
tion are followed precisely and that all requested information
is attached. Your application should be neat and all items
answered fully.
Your high school transcript, supplied to the college by your
high school, is a highly important factor in the college's accept-
ance or rejection of your application. Most colleges tentatively
admit applicants on the basis of their high school record in the
ninth, tenth, and eleventh grades. The transcript tells the college
the quantity of academic study you have undertaken and the
quality of your work as indicated by the grades you earned. Both
these factors are extremely important and should be kept in
mind constantly throughout high school.
Since each college sets its own entrance requirements and
the number of units required in each area of study varies from
college to college, especially in mathematics and foreign lan-
guages, you should learn these requirements as early as possible
in high school so you will not be disappointed at the last minute.
Admission Requirement for State Universities
All colleges in Florida require applicants to pass an entrance
examination. Entrance requirements for State universities are
set by the Florida Board of Control. Revised policy of the Board
to become effective with the beginning of the 1962-63 term are
as follows:
(1) A student from an accredited Florida secondary school
who (a) has a satisfactory high school record, including a
C average in all academic subjects, and (b) attains a score
on the Florida State-wide Twelfth Grade Testing Program
tests among the highest 40 per cent of the high school seniors
in the state is academically eligible for admission to any
of the State Universities. Insofar as practicable students
who meet these qualifications shall be given priority in
admissions and in the assignment of university housing over
students with lower scores. Prior to the availability of
F.S.T.G.T.P. scores the Universities may admit students on
the basis of scores on other tests judged to be equivalent to
those prescribed above, or on the basis of other substantial
evidence of superior academic achievement and ability,
including no less than a B average in all academic work
completed in high school.
(2) A student from an accredited Florida secondary school
who is otherwise eligible but whose score on the
F.S.T.G.T.P. tests is below the top 40 per cent but above the
lowest 40 per cent of the high school seniors may be admitted
if it is determined from all appropriate evidence that he
can be expected to do successful academic work in the
institution to which he applies.
(3) A student from an accredited Florida secondary school
who is otherwise eligible but whose F.S.T.G.T.P. test score
is among those attained by the lowest 40 per cent of the
high school seniors shall not be admitted unless an appro-
priate faculty committee judges that he should have an
opportunity to demonstrate ability to do successful work in
the college classroom.
(4) A student from a nonaccredited Florida secondary
school may be admitted to any of the State Universities pro-
vided he meets all of the requirements for students from ac-
credited Florida secondary schools and, in the judgment of
an appropriate faculty committee, can be expected to do suc-
cessful academic work in the institution to which he applies.
Since more students can meet the minimum entrance
requirements than can be accommodated, the colleges can be
selective in admitting students. This means that meeting the
score on the entrance examination is a technicality and that
the real decision to admit or reject an applicant is based on
other factors.
One of the most important things you can do in high school
to insure your acceptance in college is to build up a good foun-
dation in all academic subjects and to make as high grades as
possible while doing it. To say that one could have made better
grades if he had worked is no compliment and is not likely to
make a favorable impression on a Director of Admissions.
There is another important part of your application that
receives considerable attention by the college admissions office.
This is information about your personal characteristics, such
as character, co-operativeness, social attitudes, and other per-
sonal traits; your record of participation in extra class activities;
and your ability for leadership. Colleges are looking for students
who will not only be successful in the academic phases of college
but will succeed in all situations in life.
Admission Requirement for Private Colleges
All private colleges in Florida require applicants to take the
College Entrance Examination Board Scholastic Aptitude Test.
This examination is required for almost all large colleges outside
the state. It is also required for most large scholarships.
The College Entrance Examination Board Tests are admin-
istered by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New
Jersey. One examination is a scholastic aptitude test. Individual
achievement tests are available in eighteen subject matter areas.
Some Florida colleges require the scholastic aptitude test score
only. Other require scores from one or more of the achievement
tests in addition to the scholastic aptitude test.
You should make sure of the entrance requirements of the
college or colleges to which you wish to apply for admission. If
the college requires scores from C.E.E.B tests, you should advise
your high school principal or guidance director that you need
to take this examination. If these tests are not already scheduled
to be given in your area, arrangements to give them may be
made by writing to Educational Testing Service, P. O. Box 589,
Princeton, New Jersey. It is important that you take these tests
early in the first semester of your senior year of high school.
You are responsible for having your scores sent to the colleges
when you seek admission.
Getting accepted by a college is only the first step in your
college career. If you are accepted by a college, you have a new
world of experiences awaiting you. You and hundreds of others
will arrive at college alone in the midst of strangers. Neither
the college nor the students who count will be the least bit
impressed with what you own or even how smart you are. The
only thing that makes a lasting impression in college is what
you do. You may be the valedictorian of your class, but at college
you will find that hundreds of others held the same honor in their
class. You may be the prettiest girl in your class or the most
handsome boy, but at college there will be hundreds just as
pretty or just as handsome as you.
About half of those who begin the freshman year of college
with you will not remain until graduation. You should make sure
that you are not one of the casualties. The people in your new
world at college neither like nor dislike you yet, because they
don't know you. Everyone will want to like you. If anyone
doesn't, it may be at least half your fault.
There is a sudden freedom of personal direction when you
leave home to go to college-at college no one is going to tell
you when to go to bed, when to get up, when to eat, when you
can go to a movie or a party, or when to study. You will be on
your own. How well you are able to handle this new freedom will
be entirely up to you. If you don't know that your primary pur-
pose at college is to study, you may suddenly find yourself
packing for home at the end of the first semester. No one at
college will make things easy for you. You must make things
work out for yourself.
CHAPTER 5
Cost of Attending College
T HE COST of attending college is one of the major factors
in selecting a college and in many instances determines
whether or not a student will plan to go to college. The cost of
attending college is increasing rapidly, and all indications are
that it will continue to rise each year during the foreseeable
future. This should not be discouraging to you. A college educa-
tion is an investment in your future. Many studies have been
made which clearly prove that the time and money invested in a
college education pay good dividends. As stated in Chapter 1,
it is estimated that the life-time earnings of the average college
graduate is $100,000 more than that of the average high school
graduate.
The cost of attending college varies widely from college to
college. For some, the cost is little more than that of attending
high school. The cost varies also from one person to another
in the same college. Before you decide that you cannot afford
to go to college you should make a careful study of the cost of
several Florida colleges.
College expenses can be divided into two types. One is the
funds which you must pay to the college. This expenditure is
usually referred to as tuition and fees. These funds are used by
the college to pay salaries and operating expenses. The other
is personal expenses. These are the funds you spend on yourself
-for room rent, food, clothes, and incidental expenses.
By examining the catalog it is easy to determine what the
college charges for each semester of study. Estimating personal
expenses is more difficult. The largest expense items will be
room rent and meals. The college catalog usually gives an
estimate of these expenses. Determining the cost of general
incidental expenses for such things as clothes, recreation, social
life, trips home several times during the year, dues to clubs and
organizations, will depend on the college you attend and your
personal habits. As a general guide to personal expenses you
can estimate the amount of money you spent during your senior
year of high school. You may wish to talk to your guidance
counselor, your teachers, and others who have been to college
to see if you have listed all the things for which you need to plan.
One very important thing to remember is that at college you
will be expected to budget your expenses over a longer period
of time, since you will not be able to ask your parents for each
major item of personal expenditure as the need arises. You
should plan a realistic budget and see that you operate within it.
You may wish to use the following guide to estimate the
cost of several different colleges. You may add items of personal
expenses as you wish.
Estimated Total Cost for One Academic Year
Low $ Average $ High $
Tuition $ Health $
Room Rent $ Student Activity $
Meals $ Laundry $
Books $ Other $
Laboratory Fees $ Other $
As stated earlier, attending college is voluntary; only those
who are determined to get ahead in the world will have the desire
and courage to accomplish it.
Financing a college education is primarily the responsibility
of the individual student and his parents. Through your own
efforts and those of your parents you should attempt to pay as
much of the cost as possible. Generally, it is expected that all
students on enrolling will be able to meet all of the first semes-
ter's cost and preferably the cost of the entire freshman year.
Most scholarships and many loan funds are restricted to students
who have completed the first year. Donors want to be sure the
recipient is a dependable risk. One-fourth to one-half of those
who begin the freshman year with you will not be in the
sophomore class with you. The chances of a sophomore's grad-
uating are considerably higher than those of a beginning fresh-
man.
If you and your parents honestly do not have enough money
for you to go to college for one semester, there are many kinds
of financial help which you may feel free to seek. In general
there are four types of financial aid for college attendance: (1)
scholarships, (2) grants-in-aid, (3) self-help, (4) loan funds.
In almost every case you must have been accepted by a
college before you can be considered for any financial assistance.
Scholarships are outright gifts which the recipient is not
expected to repay. Most scholarships are awarded for outstanding
ability, and the amount is determined by the financial need of the
recipient. Some are awarded entirely on the basis of financial
need, others on the basis of outstanding ability only. Available
scholarship funds vary from college to college. If you need aid
you should apply directly to the college where you have been
accepted. Often the college will help you secure other aid if
you do not qualify for a scholarship. You will note in Part II
of this bulletin that many scholarships contain unusual stip-
ulations. Careful investigation could uncover several scholarships
for you. Unless you are in the top 10 per cent of your class or
meet some unusual requirement, the chances of your receiving
a scholarship are not good. If you are at the top of your class
you may wish to go after one of the really prize scholarships.
Most of these require that you take some type of examination.
Most really large scholarships are awarded on the basis of the
College Entrance Examination Board Scholarship Qualifying
Test. Your guidance counselor will be able to tell you how you
may arrange to take this test if you should desire to take it. All
private colleges in Florida and most large out-of-state colleges
require scores from some of the College Entrance Examination
Board Tests for all applicants. You may use these test scores to
apply for scholarships as well as college admission in most
instances.
If you are unable to secure a scholarship, you might qualify
for a grant-in-aid from the college. The college usually awards
grants-in-aid to carefully selected students who show consider-
able potential and a strong desire for a college education. Special
consideration for grants-in-aid are sometimes given to sons of
ministers, missionaries, students planning to enter full-time
religious work, and students whose families have experienced
unusual crises which restrict their financial contribution to their
education. As a rule, grants-in-aid are not required to be repaid.
High academic standing is required for this type of aid.
It is estimated that 75 per cent of the boys and 50 per cent
of the girls in college work to help pay for their education. Some
students earn all of their college expenses. Many earn half the
funds needed each year. Some work only in the summers, other
work part time during the regular term and full time during
the summers.
Colleges often recommend that a student not plan to work
during the first year of college because of the major adjustment
from high school to college. If you have a good academic foun-
dation from high school you should be able to work without its
affecting your studies. For some students, having a part-time
job helps them maintain higher grades. Because of working,
they must schedule their time more wisely, and they may find
studying easier when they have limited free time.
A part-time job pays off in two ways. It not only earns
money, it saves money you would have spent had you not been
working. It takes time to spend money. If you don't have a lot
of free time you don't spend as much money. Some college
officials feel that most of the students who leave college before
getting a degree spend themselves to failure. They have money
and time but spend both unwisely.
You should be on guard for another major enemy to your
college education. Many students complain about the food served
in the college dining halls. They eat sparingly, then rush to the
campus sweet shop for milk shakes and hot dogs, especially at
night. Eating between meals is one of the most dangerous habits
you can develop at college.
When you have exhausted all other sources of financial aid,
you may turn to loan funds. Realizing that a college education
is an investment in the future, more and more students and their
parents are borrowing to pay for college attendance. The install-
ment plan for purchasing homes, cars, and household appliances
is rapidly being applied to education. The philosophy, "Go to col-
lege now and pay later when your earning power is greater,"
is generally accepted throughout the United States today. In
1957-58, students and their parents borrowed $100 million to
meet college expenses. In 1960-61, college loans were $430
million. Since 1958 the Federal Government, through the National
Defense Student Loan Program, has maae more than $100
million available to colleges for loans to students. Most colleges
have loan funds which may be borrowed on a short-or long-term
basis. Many private non-profit organizations are being estab-
lished each year for the purpose of making loans to meet college
expenses. All loan funds must be repaid. Most loans, however,
carry a low interest rate and are repayable after graduation from
college.
Although the cost of attending college is greater today than
ever before, there is no time in your life when it will be less
expensive than immediately following your graduation from
high school.
CHAPTER 6
List of Scholarships and Loans:
Florida Colleges and Universities
THIS CHAPTER contains information about forty-three pub-
lic and private colleges, universities, and junior colleges
in Florida. The colleges are listed in alphabetical order. A
summary is provided for each college which includes: historical
background, type of college, degrees offered, admission require-
ments, and source of information about financial aid.
Following the summary for each college is a list of individual
scholarships and loans available at the college. The scholarships
have been listed in alphabetical order by title. Opposite each is
the number of scholarships, the annual value, and special require-
ments. Some scholarship donors have specific and unusual
requirements and often a careful study of the special require-
ments will uncover a vacant scholarship or loan. You will note
that most scholarships are not available to students at the
freshman level.
Information about a specific scholarship may be obtained
from the Director of Student Aid at the college. Often the
Director of Student Aid can be of greater assistance if a student
will explain his needs without reference to a specific scholarship.
BARRY COLLEGE
Miami Shores, Florida
Barry College was founded in 1940 by Reverend Mother
Mary Gerald, O.P. and is conducted by the Sisters of St. Dominic
of Adrian, Michigan. It is a college of liberal arts offering majors
in History, Sociology, Music, Speech, and Drama leading to the
Bachelor of Arts degree; in Biology, Chemistry, Education, Home
Economics, Mathematics, Medical Technology and Physical Edu-
cation, leading to the Bachelor of Science degree. Majors in
nursing earn the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree. Master
of Art degrees are offered with majors in education and English
and Master of Science degrees with majors in education.
Students will be admitted to the College by certificate from
an accredited high school. Students graduating from non-accred-
ited high schools must apply for special consideration. The com-
mittee on admissions requires as part of the entrance credentials
the scores of the College Board Scholastic Aptitude Test
taken in the junior or senior year. All applicants for admission
must present a minimum of 15 units of high school courses which
must include the following:
English 4 units
Social Studies 2 "
Mathematics 2
Science (laboratory) 2
Foreign Language (same language) 1
Electives 2
Academic scholarships may be merited at Barry College
through competitive examinations given each year throughout
the State of Florida in early March. Scholarship value ranges
from a partial tuition scholarship to a complete coverage of board,
room, and tuition.
Student aid is available to college students who are able to
do part-time campus work while maintaining acceptable scholas-
tic status. Applications of student aid and information concern-
ing scholarships may be secured by writing to Sister M. Trinita,
O. P., Dean, Barry College.

BETHUNE-COOKMAN COLLEGE
Daytona Beach, Florida
Bethune-Cookman College, a four-year coeducational institu-
tion, is the result of the merger of two Florida educational
institutions-Cookman Institute, Jacksonville, and the Daytona
Normal and Industrial Institute for Girls, Daytona Beach. Cook-
man Institute, a Methodist School, was founded in 1872 by Rev-
erend D. B. S. Darnell and was the first institution of higher
learning for Negroes in Florida. Daytona Normal and Industrial
Institute for Girls was founded in 1904 by Mary McLeod
Bethune. Cookman Institute and Daytona Normal merged in
1923, establishing a coeducational school known as Daytona-
Cookman Collegiate Institute which was still affiliated with the
Methodist Church. The name was later changed to Bethune-
Cookman College and a dual program of high school and junior
college work was discontinued and the entire emphasis placed
on the junior college. In 1941, the teacher education curriculum
was expanded to the four-year level. Students who satisfactorily
complete a four-year program of studies will be awarded the
Bachelor of Arts degree in Music, History, English, Religion and
Philosophy, or the Bachelor of Science degree in Biology, Math-
ematics, Physical Education, Business Education, or Elementary
Education.
Graduates from approved high schools who have the recom-
mendation of their principal and one other faculty member are
eligible to apply for admission provided they have earned the
following credits: English 3, Social Studies 2, Mathematics 2,
Natural Science 2, and Electives 6.
Work-aid scholarships, and grants-in-aid are available to stu-
dents who need financial assistance. For information write to
the Scholarship Loan Committee.

lege, was founded as the Florida Conference College by the
Methodist Church in 1885, located in Leesburg. In 1902 the
school was opened as the Florida Seminary at Sutherland, now
Palm Harbor, on the Gulf Coast. In 1906 the name was changed
to Southern College. Following a fire which destroyed the build-
ings and a temporary location in Clearwater, Lakeland was
selected as the permanent site in 1921. Under the administration
of Dr. Ludd M. Spivey the name was changed to Florida Southern
College.
All candidates for admission who are graduates of Florida
secondary schools must take the state-wide twelfth grade place-
ment test. If this test has not been taken because of exceptional
circumstances, the student will be required to take either the
College Entrance Board Examination or a college aptitude test
selected by Florida Southern College. All out-of-state applicants
must take scholastic aptitude tests of the College Entrance Exam-
ination Board or other comparable tests.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts is awarded to students who
fulfill the requirements with a major concentration in Art,
English, French, German, History, Music, Philosophy, Religion,
Sociology, Spanish and Speech. The Bachelor of Science degree
is awarded to majors in Business Administration, Biology, Chem-
istry, Citrus, Education, Home Economics, Industrial Arts and
Physics. The Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science may be
earned for majors in Journalism, Mathematics or Psychology.
The degree conferred depends on whether the foreign language
requirement is met and the degree field of the minor.
The college offers a number of scholarships to deserving
students each year. Students who are qualified may earn a
portion of their expenses by working on campus. Information
concerning scholarships, loans and part-time employment may
be obtained by writing to the office of the President.

ORLANDO JUNIOR COLLEGE
Orlando, Florida
The Orlando Junior College, an independent, co-educational
institution was founded in 1941 by a group of private citizens
from Orlando and Central Florida. Although the College is
neither church-related nor church-supported it is professedly a
Christian College. The educational aims of Orlando Junior Col-
lege are: (1) To give two years of College work acceptable for
transfer to four-year colleges, universities and other professional
schools (2) To offer two years of study for those persons who
plan to complete their formal education upon graduation from
Orlando Junior College (3) To serve the community of Orlando,
Orange county and Central Florida by offering certain courses,
activities and services for adults and special students in keeping
with the needs and requests of individuals and organizations.
Graduates of accredited secondary schools or persons awarded
high school equivalency diplomas by the State Department of
Education are eligible to apply for admission.
The Associate in Arts degree is awarded to students who
successfully complete a full two-year course of study.
Because of the extensive opportunity for part-time employ-
ment in Orlando and Orange county, student scholarships are
not as essential for deserving persons as they are in many colleges.
Even so, a modest scholarship program is being developed. The
philosophy of the college is that those students should be assisted
who have demonstrated that they are not afraid to work and are
making a real effort to help themselves. For this reason, appli-
cations for scholarships are generally not accepted, except in
the case of work scholarships or where applications are specially
called for. Inquiries concerning financial assistance should be
directed to the Dean of Students.

St. Petersburg Junior College was founded in 1927, as a
private, non-profit corporation. During 1948, the college con-
verted from private to public school status and is today a part
of the Pineallas County Public School System. It is under the
direct control of the Board of Public Instruction and the
Superintendent of Schools.

tion upon graduation from St. Petersburg Junior
