University of Fort Lauderdale

What is the cost of studying for a year at University of Fort Lauderdale?

For 2024-25, University of Fort Lauderdale reported $9,600 in full-time undergraduate tuition and $210 in required undergraduate fees, with the same published charges for in-state and out-of-state students. That puts those two billed items at $9,810 before other expenses or aid.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition: $9,600 per academic year.
• Required full-time undergraduate fees: $210 per academic year.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition: $400 per credit hour.
• Full-time graduate tuition: $8,100 per academic year, plus $270 in required fees.
• Part-time graduate tuition: $450 per credit hour.

Books and supplies were estimated at $1,500. Students also need a budget for housing, food, transportation, and personal expenses; the tuition-and-fees figure is not a complete annual cost of attendance. Because the university does not provide college-operated undergraduate housing, a student's actual living costs will depend heavily on individual arrangements. A reported room-and-board figure should not be mistaken for the price of a university residence hall or meal plan.

Financial aid can change the amount a student ultimately pays. In 2024-25 reporting, 25% of students received financial aid, while 58% had student loans; these figures should not be combined as though they describe the same award or necessarily the same student group. Eligible students can submit the FAFSA to be considered for federal assistance and ask the financial aid office about applicable grants, scholarships, loan terms, and deadlines. A personalized aid offer is more useful for budgeting than published tuition alone.

What are the work-study opportunities at University of Fort Lauderdale?

Students considering work while enrolled should distinguish a paid student job from an internship and from Federal Work-Study. Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through qualifying employment; it is not a grant paid automatically with a financial aid award.

Applicants seeking work should ask the financial aid office whether they can be considered for Work-Study and how positions are advertised. They should separately ask their academic program about internships and any requirements for receiving course credit. For career planning, a useful question is which specific services are currently available - such as résumé feedback, interview preparation, employer introductions, or individual advising - rather than assuming that access to a degree program includes job placement.
