| About this School |
| Florida College is a small, accredited, coeducational Christian college located in Temple Terrace, Florida, in the Tampa metropolitan area. Degree programs include the Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies, the Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies, the Bachelor of Arts in Music, the Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, as well as an Associate of Arts degree.
Founded in 1946 as a junior college, it draws its staff, faculty, and most students from churches of Christ though it is not officially affiliated with churches. This makes for some unique arrangements for a Christian college – it refrains from taking any contributions from churches directly, and the members of its board are there only as individuals and not representatives of the congregations of which they are members.
Florida College puts a high emphasis on its Christian heritage, which is expressed in its daily chapel services. All members of the board of directors and all faculty members are required to be active members in a church of Christ. All students are required to receive daily instruction in Biblical topics, even those majoring in liberal arts fields.
