In 2016, the
majority of Floridian colleges have Spring Break throughout February and
March, slightly earlier than most other colleges in the United States.
Be sure to cross-reference with your college calendars if you are
looking for specific dates for a college rather than a ballpark.
Dates can and do change, but for the most part, these are correct, and will continue to be updated.
