What is the cost of studying for a year at Saint Johns River State College?

Saint Johns River State College's published 2024-25 undergraduate tuition figures are substantially different for Florida residents and nonresidents. Tuition and mandatory fees are only part of a student's annual budget; books, transportation, food, and housing can be consequential even for someone who does not live on campus.

  • Florida resident: $1,892 in full-time tuition plus $699 in required fees, or approximately $2,591 for the academic year.
  • Out-of-state student: $7,572 in full-time tuition plus $1,762 in required fees, or approximately $9,334 for the academic year.
  • Books and supplies: a reported annual estimate of $2,196; actual spending depends on courses and materials.
  • Room and board: a reported annual estimate of $12,610, representing living costs rather than a college residence-hall charge.

These amounts should not be added together and presented as a universal bill. A student living with family, renting independently, studying part time, or taking a program with additional materials or clinical requirements may face a different total. Transportation and personal expenses also belong in a full cost-of-attendance budget.

For students in families with annual incomes of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $4,635; for the $48,001-$75,000 band, it was $6,860. Net price is an average cost after grant aid, not a quoted price for an individual applicant. In 2024-25 aid data, 47% of students received financial aid and 7% had student loans. Eligible students can explore federal grants and loans, Florida aid, and college scholarships by completing the FAFSA and reviewing the college's financial aid requirements. Residency classification and an individual aid offer are essential to a useful personal estimate.

What are the work-study opportunities at Saint Johns River State College?

Saint Johns River State College students can explore employment alongside their studies, but a campus job and Federal Work-Study are not interchangeable. Federal Work-Study is a need-based financial aid program: eligibility depends on a student's aid determination, available funding, and obtaining an eligible position. An award is not cash paid in advance or a guarantee of a job.

Students interested in Work-Study should complete the FAFSA and ask financial aid about current eligibility, positions, and hiring procedures. Ordinary part-time jobs generally do not require a Work-Study award. The college also reports individual and group career counseling, career-interest assessment, interview workshops, and individual job-placement assistance for undergraduates. These services can support a job search, but they should not be read as evidence that a particular student will receive an offer.
