Have you ever toyed with the idea of transferring to UF from community college? Many students have, but many others don't even realize it's possible. In this post, I'll be showing you exactly what to do and how transferring can save you thousands of dollars. So even if you ended up going to a community college in Florida because of your high school grades, you can still work your way up and get by the University of Florida admissions office.
The very first point you'll want to remember is that taking out student loans means you will have to pay them back. So why take out student loans when you could keep all that money and save yourself the hassle of paying off debt by transferring to UF from community college? Just take a second and think about all the things you could do with that money:
- Buy a brand new car!
- Go on a world tour cruise
- Put a down payment on a house
- Start a business
The opportunities are simply endless when years of work after graduation don't have to go directly to paying off your student loans! All of a sudden, the sunshine state will seem just that much sunnier for you.
University of Florida's Tuition vs. Community College
According to the University of Florida's website, the average tuition for a student living on or off campus is $20,580 per year. Check out the numbers below (taken from the website)...
If you compare these tuition rates with that of community colleges in Florida, you'll see a big difference. At just ~$109 per credit, community college will cost you under $3,000 per year. If you're going to community college for two years, you'll only have spent $6,000 instead of minimum $40,000 at UF! Do the math and see that you're saving close to $33,000!
