Your success is our number one priority!

I invite you to explore our website and learn about the many opportunities available to you at Polk State College. With a variety of degree and certificate options, Polk State offers the courses and programs you require, whether you are preparing to transfer to a four-year institution to pursue a bachelor’s degree, or mastering the skills for immediate employment in one of many high-demand careers.

Polk State College’s Corporate College is also the ideal setting for working professionals to stay up-to-date in their fields. Another option is our Collegiate High School, which offers qualified high school students the opportunity to earn a high school diploma and college degree concurrently. Polk State also offers college preparatory courses and comprehensive academic support services and resources, as well as a newly established Honors Program.
