Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

Its very clean and beautiful campus with lots of place to go and study in quiet. Its up to date with its computer labs and technology. Finally it is a wonderful school for those who want an education and do not have a lot of money.
Edwin from Ocala, FL
College of Central Florida is very affordable and has quality instructors. Professors and administrators honestly care about their students and are willing to work with them. Their small class sizes and hands-on instruction really helps when learning difficult subject matter.
Kaitlynn from Inverness, FL
Awesome and caring teachers. Admissions office SUCKS! Employee's in the admissions office need to go! Other then that everyone is friendly and eager to learn!
Natalie from Ocala, FL
CF is a great college to earn 2 and 4 year degrees in a setting of small classes and wonderful professors. CF also has campuses in Marion, Levy, and Citrus Counties as well as online classes. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give CF a 10.
Lori from Williston, FL
The College of Central Florida has a wide array of majors and classes to fulfill the needs of any students. The teachers are helpful and very involved with the learning of their students. I believe any student will greatly enjoy their time at CF.
