Cost of Attendance
Transfer Cost of Attendance

Did you know that USF offers one of the lowest tuition rates in the country?
It’s true! We have been nationally recognized for our affordability and value by many outside organizations, including Kiplinger’s Personal Finance and U.S. News & World Report.
Tuition and Fees
Your tuition and fees are based on a number of factors, including your residency status and the type of housing you choose. Even if you live out of state, our costs often compare favorably with the in-state rates at your local university.
USF Scholarships
As a student at USF, you will have many scholarship opportunities available to you.
- Transfer students can apply for Admissions Scholarships after submitting a USF application.
- The USF Foundation also offers a variety of scholarships. These are privately funded and require a separate scholarship application.
Financial Aid
Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be automatically considered for federal, state and university financial aid programs. Don't delay! Submit your FAFSA as early as possible (or by USF’s priority deadline) to be considered for the most types of aid possible.
Your financial aid award offer will list your estimated cost of attendance to attend USF for one academic year. It will also state the total amount of aid you will receive during the academic year, including scholarships, grants, loans and work-study.
Use our Cost Calculator alongside your financial aid award offer to accurately estimate your out-of-pocket costs to attend USF.
