Participant information

For students who are court-mandated to attend Prime for Life, a $90 fee must be paid at the front desk of the Administration Building at least one week prior to the start of the session.  If a student misses a class, he or she must take the course again (and pay the fee again), because the material is presented sequentially.  No students are allowed to enter the classroom five minutes after the start of the session, and only a short break is allowed during each session. These regulations reflect court requirements for PFL courses.

Prime for Life staff reserve the right to withdraw any student or to decline to re-enroll any student who has exhibited inappropriate, disruptive conduct (including use of profanity). All students are subject to the Gainesville State College Code of Conduct.
