Tallahassee, Fla. — Today, the State University System of Florida (SUS) launched its 50th annual Admissions Tour at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida. The Admissions Tour allows Florida high school counselors to engage with representatives from all 12 public universities in the SUS and receive updated information regarding the admissions process, including testing, regulations, policies, and student resources.

“For 50 years, the Admissions Tour has supported Florida’s high school students in achieving their higher education goals by providing high schools with vital admissions information and resources,” said SUS Chancellor Ray Rodrigues. “Through this collaborative approach across the entire SUS, we demonstrate our commitment to a transparent and accessible admissions process, affording all potential students the same opportunity to earn their seat within the nation’s #1 higher education system.”

“The Admissions Tour is an important part of the SUS’s relationship with Florida’s students and education professionals. By providing an opportunity to connect with high school counselors and leaders in Florida, we help strengthen the connection between our students and our universities,” said SUS Director of Admissions and Special Projects Diego Fermin. “These interactions, presentations, and questionnaires are an invaluable resource that allow Florida’s high schools to be in the know about the latest news regarding student admissions to the SUS.”

This informational tour is free to all high school counselors and focuses on uplifting the future higher education students of Florida. All 12 public universities will be represented at each tour stop, prompting counselors’ easy access to ask questions, learn more about the universities, and better guide Florida’s students. Counselors can learn more about the latest changes to admissions, financial aid, and even post-secondary testing.
