How Cost of Attendance Is Calculated
Student budgets can only include costs of attendance for the individual student. Additional living allowances for married students or students with children are not included. A child care allowance, however, may be included — depending on the ages of the student’s children.
Following is a brief description of how these budgets are derived. Budgets are based on a two-semester academic year and vary according to academic classification and residency status:
1. Tuition/Fees
PharmD students pay block tuition each Fall and Spring. Block tuition paid during Fall and Spring covers regular Summer rotation course work ( ex.,CIPPE, HIPPE, APPE). Enrollment in 12 or more credit hours per semester requires block fees. Payments are made in full at the beginning of each semester. Tuition is a fixed amount each year, but fees may differ depending on classes.
2. Books and Supplies
Costs are determined by averaging the total cost of books and supplies for a four-year accounting curriculum at the Campus Shop and Bookstore (with 25% of books purchased used at 75% of new book price, and assuming resale of 50% of texts at 50% of cost).
3. Living Expenses
On-campus graduate costs are based on an average of rents for available UF graduate housing. Off-campus graduate costs are based on the biannual Law Student cost survey, completed in Fall of 2022. This includes rent and utilities for 10 months. Food costs are based on UF Dining’s Blue Unlimited Meal Plan for on- or off-campus students and/or the Weekly 14 meal plan for students living at home.
4. Technology
Costs are determined by using the Education Data average cost of textbooks survey for the total estimate costs for equipment and technology.
5. Miscellaneous Personal Expenses
The personal budget is based on the U.S. Department of Labor’s established personal and clothing costs for one person. This includes laundry, toiletries, cell phone, and minor miscellaneous expenses.
6. Transportation
On- and off-campus transportation costs allow for three roundtrips to Miami by personal automobile per two semesters
