Eastern Florida Online

The Perfect Choice for Online Classes

Online classes are an important way to earn a degree in fast-growth job fields and Eastern Florida State College is a nationally-recognized leader in online education.

Through our Eastern Florida Online programs you can earn a complete Associate or Bachelor's Degree or certificate program and take online courses as part of a hybrid program that includes on-campus classes.

We're excited to also offer our online programs to out-of-state students as part of the NC-SARA consortium that makes it easier for students to take online courses offered by higher education institutions based in another state.

With more than 250 online course topics, Eastern Florida Online (EFO) offers the same excellent instruction and small class size that you find in our face-to-face courses. EFO blends quality, accessibility, and flexibility to meet the needs of every student, especially working adults juggling jobs and families.
