General University Information
TUITION AND FEES
TUITION
The basic undergraduate tuition rate covers the normal student
load and is increased if the student carries an overload.
Private instruction, e.g., music lessons, carries extra charges.
For tuition charges in special programs and sessions, see
the announcements that are published concerning these components
of the University’s academic program.
The following list of charges is effective for the academic
year 2009-2010.
UNDERGRADUATES (ALL COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS)
Undergraduate students carrying both undergraduate and graduate
courses will be charged tuition at the rate in effect for
undergraduate credits taken and appropriate fees. For example,
tuition for a student carrying a total of 15 credits, of which
3 are graduate and 12 are undergraduate, would be charged
at the $17,770.00 rate.
Undergraduate students taking graduate level coursework that
is priced at a special level will be billed separately for
these courses. Students should check with their advisors and/or
the appropriate school’s department for more details
on their course pricing requirements.
Full-time fees will be assessed according to student classification
as an undergraduate or graduate.
The University reserves the right to change without notice
tuition, fees, room and all other charges at the beginning
of any academic year, and the right to change activities and
board fees at the beginning of any semester.
GRADUATE STUDENTS
The Executive M.B.A. Program officially begins with the Orientation
session each year. Tuition charges and deposits are non refundable
after the start of the Program which begins with the Orientation
session. Refer to the current brochure for additional information
or call (305) 284-2510.
Certain programs are conducted by the University under contract
with the State of Florida. Florida residents who have been
accepted as students in those contract programs are required
to pay current state tuition for each credit hour taken and
the state provides the University with additional funds in
accordance with the terms of the contracts. Students involved
in state contract programs should contact the appropriate
school/college to ascertain the state tuition charge per credit
hour that they are expected to pay.
FEES
Some fees depend upon full-time status. This is determined
by the sum total of semester credits carried by the student
in all divisions. Intersession classes are included with regular
fall and spring semester classes in determining the student's
full- or part-time status. This determination will also
result in the billing of required fees. Fees are subject
to change.
Full-time undergraduate students are all students carrying
12 or more credits in a regular semester or five (5) or more
credits in a summer session.
Graduate students are classified full-time if they carry
nine (9) or more credits in a regular semester or three (3)
or more credits in a summer session.

Doctoral Dissertation Fee (non-refundable fee) $125
*Summer fees are mandatory for students taking 5 or more
