Florida Bright Futures Question: Community Service

Paying for College
1

<p>I was just wondering if anyone knew the specifics on the community service requirement in order to qualify for Florida Bright Futures Scholarship. I know you need 75 hours, but can you count school-required service hours (my school requires 80 before you can graduate), or is it an additional 75 hours?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Yes, school-required hours count for Bright Futures. I think that's one of the reasons that Florida schools require community service - to make sure that the kids meet that Bright Futures requirement.</p>
