Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than the $20,775 sticker price at USF. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $4,785 per year after aid, while those from households making $30,000 to $48,000 pay $6,053. Even middle-class families earning $48,000 to $75,000 pay only $10,649 annually. Over four years, that ranges from about $19,000 to $43,000 total. The median graduate owes $17,988 in loans, which translates to monthly payments of $191.

Those payments look manageable against median earnings of $57,743 ten years after graduation. Florida residents get the biggest advantage since 85% of students are in-state and pay the lower tuition rate of $6,410. Only 25% of students take federal loans, and just 30% receive Pell Grants, suggesting many families can afford USF without heavy borrowing. The best deals go to lower-income Florida families who qualify for substantial need-based aid.
