Correspondence Courses

The University of Florida’s Division of Continuing Education, Department of Independent Study by Correspondence administers all correspondence instruction for the State University System of Florida (SUS). College credit, high school credit, and continuing professional education courses are available through regular mail and Fax (several by e-mail). Independent Study offers more than 150 courses to students who would like a flexible schedule or an opportunity to take extra classes. It is possible to enroll any time during the year.

In 1996, the State revised the General Provisions Rule 644.002, at the Bureau of Teacher Certification for the State of Florida. Any teacher in the state now can use credit correspondence courses, as appropriate, to apply toward the recertification of the teaching license. Moreover, there is no limit to the number of courses that may fulfill the requirements.

The current catalog details enrollment procedures, fees, and course information. A copy may be obtained at no cost by calling or writing to:
