Official transcripts are required from all previously attended colleges and universities for students entering any AA, AS, AAS, or Certificate program, whether or not the certificate program requires a high school diploma. In order for college transcripts to be considered official they must be sent directly from the issuing institution to Daytona State or hand delivered in a sealed envelope by the student from the institution. Electronic transcripts received through FASTER are also considered official. Faxes are not considered official.
Exceptions:
- Special credit (non-degree) - transcripts are waived. Students enrolling in this major will be required to declare a major by their 15th credit hour. Placement testing requirements will go into effect as students reach their 15th credit hour if still enrolled in the non-degree special credit major.
- Special credit (degree holding) - final, official transcript with the degree (a Florida awarded Associates of Arts or a Bachelors or higher) is required. A copy of a Florida teaching certificate may be submitted in lieu of the official transcript.
- Apprenticeship majors - college transcripts are waived.
- College credits earned outside of the U.S. must be evaluated and translated, if applicable, by a NACES approved company. If the student wants transfer credit, a course-by-course evaluation is required. If he/she does not want transfer credit, we can accept a document-by-document evaluation.
