What is the cost of studying for a year at Broward College?

For the 2024-25 reporting year, Broward College's published full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees total $2,830 for Florida residents: $1,968 in tuition plus $862 in fees. The corresponding out-of-state figures total $2,830: $7,402 in tuition plus $1,550 in fees. Residency status therefore makes a substantial difference.

  • Florida-resident tuition and required fees: $2,830 for the reported academic year.
  • Out-of-state tuition and required fees: $2,830 for the reported academic year.
  • Reported books and supplies estimate: $2,000; actual spending depends on courses and materials.
  • Reported housing and food planning figure: $19,500; this is not a charge for a Broward College residence hall.

Adding the reported books and housing-and-food figures to tuition and required fees produces a rough subtotal of $24,330 for a Florida resident or $30,452 for an out-of-state student. These are not complete or individualized cost-of-attendance totals: transportation, personal expenses, course-specific charges, enrollment intensity, and a student's living arrangement can change the budget. Students should use the college's current aid-year cost-of-attendance estimate for financial-aid planning rather than treat this arithmetic as a bill.

Financial aid can reduce what a student pays. In the reported IPEDS figures, 72% of students received financial aid and 10% had student loans; the average grant amount reported for undergraduate recipients was $5,494. Eligible students may pursue federal grants and loans, Florida aid, institutional scholarships, and applicable veterans' or military education benefits. The FAFSA is the starting point for most federal aid, while scholarships or state programs can have additional requirements and deadlines.

Net price includes expenses beyond tuition and subtracts grant aid; it is not the same as the amount billed by the college. For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $14,278. Individual results depend on aid eligibility, course load, residency, and living costs, so an aid offer and personal budget are more informative than an average alone.

What are the work-study opportunities at Broward College?

Broward College students can seek part-time work while studying, and eligible students may qualify for Federal Work-Study through their financial-aid package. Work-Study is earned through an approved job; it is not an upfront tuition discount or a guarantee that a position will be available.

Students interested in Work-Study should complete the FAFSA, review their aid offer, and follow the college's instructions for finding and applying to eligible positions. Ordinary part-time jobs and internships have different hiring and pay arrangements and may not require Work-Study eligibility. A student weighing any job should consider class and clinical schedules as well as commuting time.

The college also reports career support available to undergraduates, including individual and group career planning, interest assessment, résumé preparation, interview workshops, job listings, and employer events. Career staff can help students explore occupations and prepare applications; those services should not be confused with a verified job-placement rate or a promise of employment.
