I know that FCCJ says they give preference to Duval and Nassau county residents but I can't seem to get a straight answer on if they ACCEPT students from other counties.
So has anyone here been accepted recently that doesn't live in Duval or Nassau? I have gotten three different stories from FCCJ so I am not sure what to think about it.

They do. Some of my classmates where from St. Johns county, plus we even had one girl from Daytona. She would drive almost 2 hours to come to class......
Thanks! How long ago was that? I have heard recently that they won't accept anyone outside of the two counties anymore.
It was 2 semesters ago and I doubt they would put a limit like that. they want money like any other school. I say go for it!

They give priority to Duval and Nassau residents. If there are enough applicants from that pool, it is unlikely that someone outside those counties will get accepted. There are other threads on the subject. But, the reality is, it cannot hurt to apply anyway. You might get lucky!
(BTW, "getting money" is not the issue. 2/3rds of the applicants don't get a slot.)
