Florida Prepaid College Plan

If you are a Florida resident, you may elect to use the funds in your Florida Prepaid College Plan account at Andrew College. Although the per credit hour charge at Andrew College is not “locked in” as with schools in Florida, you may still use the funds in your account on a dollar per dollar basis. However, they must be used as you have set up the designation within your account. Money in your Florida 529 Savings Plan may also be used at Andrew College.

Families wishing to apply funds from their Florida prepaid account to an out of state or private institution will need to complete this form and submit it to the Florida Prepaid College Plan at the address listed on the form: Florida Prepaid Form.

If you have any further questions about the Florida Prepaid College Plan, please go to myfloridaprepaid.com.
