Herzing University-Tampa

What is the cost of studying for a year at Herzing University-Tampa?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Herzing University-Tampa was $12,360, with $1,090 in required fees, for a combined published tuition-and-fee figure of $13,450. The reported amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates. A part-time undergraduate rate of $515 per credit hour was also reported; a part-time bill depends on the number of credits and applicable fees.

Tuition and fees are only part of the cost of attendance. Books or course materials, transportation, food, and housing can materially change a student's budget, especially when travel to a clinical site is required. Herzing University-Tampa does not operate undergraduate housing, so a living-expense estimate should not be mistaken for a charge for a campus residence hall. Graduate tuition and program-specific charges should be assessed separately rather than added to an undergraduate estimate.

Financial aid can reduce the amount paid out of pocket, but loans must generally be repaid. In the reported aid figures, 100% of the measured student cohort received financial aid and 80% used student loans. The average net price was $23,696 for students from families with incomes up to $48,000 and $17,556 for those in the next reported income band. Net price includes estimated attendance expenses after grant and scholarship aid, which helps explain why it can exceed tuition alone; an individual award will differ.

Eligible students can investigate federal grants and loans through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, along with applicable state aid, Herzing scholarships, and military or veterans' education benefits. Before accepting an offer, request a program-specific cost-of-attendance and aid estimate showing the full expected length of study, required fees and supplies, grants, and the amount financed by loans.

What are the work-study opportunities at Herzing University-Tampa?

Students considering work while attending Herzing University-Tampa should distinguish Federal Work-Study, ordinary part-time employment, and required program experience. Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through an approved job; it is not an upfront discount on tuition. An internship or clinical placement may be a degree requirement without being a paid job.

The first question for a financial aid adviser is whether the student's award includes Federal Work-Study and, if so, how approved positions are advertised and paid. Students seeking career-related experience should separately ask their academic program about clinical placements or internships and use the university's career-support services for job-search preparation. Availability of an aid award does not itself guarantee a position or a particular number of working hours.
