Security Escort Transmitter ALL new students are required to purchase the Security Escort Transmitter. This transmitter provides instant access to Campus Safety and Security personnel for medical emergencies and personal safety situations. The system is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When activated, this small, handheld transmitter sounds an alarm at the Campus Safety and Security Office.
Campus Mail At activation, the Security Escort Transmitter displays all your personal information, such as race, gender, height, hair color, cell phone number, etc. Within seconds, Safety professionals know who and where you are. Help is immediately dispatched to your location. The Security Escort Transmitter is a form of a GPS System, which means it tracks your movement no matter where you are on campus. The Security Escort Transmitter, however, is not a substitute for safe behavior. The $50 cost of the Security Escort Transmitter will be billed to your student account. For more information please contact Campus Safety and Security at 863.680.4305.

You’ve Got Mail • Put your name and box number on each piece of mail. • Incoming mail to new students should read “New Student” until a campus box number is received. • Do not write “P.O. Box” before your box number as it causes confusion for the U.S. Postal Service and FedEx. • Pick up your key and box number at the mailroom when you arrive on campus. • Check your campus mail regularly. It is your responsibility to check and know the information that has been distributed. • If you plan on shipping any of your belongings to campus before your arrival, do not send more than a week prior to move-in day. For more information, call the mailroom at 863.680.3928.
Parking Permits Cars are allowed on campus. Students with cars must park in a designated, permit-only area. Permits may be obtained from Campus Safety & Security.
