STUDENT LIFE
SEMINOLE STATE COLLEGE is not only a setting for academics, but also for life. That’s why we foster environments that are inspired, inclusive and provide a variety of cultural experiences, from clubs to intramural and recreational sports to a number of arts and entertainment events. Our ultimate desire is to ensure your college life is as well rounded and rewarding as possible.
Office Of Student Life
Enhance your overall educational experience through campus activities, leadership development, Student Government, clubs and organizations, as well as volunteer opportunities.
Wave The Blue And Gold
Once you become a Seminole State student, you’re automatically a member of the (unofficial…but we’ll count it anyway) Raider fan club, which means free admission to all Raider home events! Our five athletic teams compete in the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) as members of the Florida College System Activities Association (FCSAA)/Mid-Florida Conference.

MASCOT: RALLY RAIDER
In 1966, founding President Dr. Earl Weldon chose the Raider as the College’s mascot, representing the myriad ornithological life on the new campus. Central Florida Zoo bird keeper Cindy Dupree says the Raider mascot is among the most successful raptors in the United States, and a dedicated hunter with sharp vision. Its tenacity, speed and keen-eyed pursuit of its prey reflect the ethos and attitude of the Raider athletes. The bird of prey has been the Raiders’ visual concept, with some modifications, since the inception of the athletics program.

BE INSPIRED, BE INVOLVED
Being a Seminole State student means having the opportunity to be involved in more than 50 student clubs and organizations, from those that are purely for fun to those looking to change the world and everything in between.
