Non-degree seeking and graduate certificate students must pay capital improvement and technology fees. Master’s degree students must pay capital improvement, technology and financial aid fees. For a list of fee schedules, please visit the University Bursar.
All students enrolled in for-credit courses will pay a Gator One Service Fee. The $5 fee will be issued at the beginning of every fall and spring semester. More information on this fee can be found here.
Students may pay tuition via credit card, electronic check or paper check. A processing fee is assessed for credit card payments. Payments can be made approximately three weeks before the semester begins. Students will receive payment instructions once UF has loaded tuition into the system.
Students pay per credit hour. Take your time based on what is affordable to you, and space out your courses to fit your budget. We don’t do payment plans, but you can create your own payment plan by determining how many credits you can pay for each semester. Because our classes are completely online, students pay the same low, in-state tuition regardless of location. There are no additional travel costs or living expenses required.
Please contact ahc-dess@ufl.edu with any questions.
