Any student wanting to be in the FGCU Collegiate Academy and obtain Cambridge Diploma must meet the same eligibility requirements as an incoming 9th grader as well as the 11th grade dual enrollment requirements for the FGCU Collegiate Academy. Once the student reaches the 11th grade, they would take 12 credit hours of FGCU credit while also completing Cambridge courses. This provides opportunities to earn at least 48 hours of college credit, but also provides an opportunity for the student to obtain the highest level of the Bright Futures Scholarship.
