The Space Coast
Florida Prep's campus is located in Melbourne (Brevard County), the technology and education hub in the region at the center of the state known as the Space Coast—so named as the site of the Kennedy Space Center and NASA. Numerous engineering and private-sector firms that collaborate with the Space Program are headquartered within a walking distance from our campus. The Florida Institute of Technology—one of the leading research universities in the state, and a partner school where our students can participate in University Dual Enrollment programs—is also in close proximity. The history of cutting-edge innovation and exploration in the region situates the Academy within a dynamic, high tech economy that offers unparalleled opportunities for advanced learning, internships, and career prospects.
Brevard County's location—with access to almost 70 miles of pristine beaches, in close proximity to Orlando attractions, and shopping—situates our campus near to an uncommon variety of activities, entertainment, and quality of life opportunities.
Transportation to campus is direct and straightforward with domestic and international air travel connections available at Melbourne Orlando International Airport (MLB) 1.3 miles from campus. Orlando International Airport (MCO) is also only 60 miles away.
