Returning

Steps to Enroll

Student who has previously applied to or has taken classes at SF should follow these steps in order to become a student at SF.

Reapply for Admission

1. Sign in with your SFID and eSantaFe password and complete the SF online application. If you do not remember your SFID or password, use the "Forgot" links on the page.
2. After you submit, log in to eSantaFe and go to "My Status" to check your progress throughout the admissions process. Please allow up to 2 hours before accessing trainings in Canvas and your SF email through Outlook. 

Apply for Financial Aid and Scholarships (optional)

1. Apply for Financial Aid by submitting a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You will complete FAFSA according to your dependency status.

• SF School code: 001519
• For more information, please visit the Financial Aid site.

2. Complete College Scholarship and Foundation Scholarship applications.
3. Review the Waivers and Exemptions page to see if you qualify for a tuition waiver or exemption. 

Upon completion, check verification or awards status on your "My FA Status" in eSantaFe.

Complete Residency Declaration for Discounted Tuition

The tuition you pay is determined by your residency classification. Florida residents pay a much lower (discounted) tuition rate than out-of-state residents. All students who apply for admission will be admitted as non-Florida residents pending submission of the required forms and supporting documentation needed to prove Florida residency.

1. Login to your eSantaFe account and check your "My Status" for next steps to complete the residency process.
2. The residency declaration and all supporting documentation must be submitted prior to the first day of classes of your first term in order to receive discounted tuition.

Note: Returning students need to re-confirm proof of residency, even if you previously had Florida Residency when you were last enrolled at SF.

For more information on Florida Residency, visit the Discounted Tuition page.
