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.

A lot of people put down community colleges, but I have been able to learn a lot due to the small class sizes.
Kristina from Jacksonville, FL
The teachers here are all very student-oriented. They take the time to give you their office hours and various ways to contact them if you are having trouble and if you do ever happen to go by, they'll be there to happily assist you. There's also a fantastic assortment of tutors and assistance to help you on your way and through your classes in the centers we have here.
Maureen from Jacksonville, FL

This college so far has been a great experience for me. I am currently taking online classes and I love the blackboard program, it's easy to navigate and communicate with your professors. All the classes are mapped out and simple to understand.
Veronica from Jacksonville, FL
Very gentle to wallet area so no need to worry about financial difficulties.
Small classes so for all of you shy people this will be fine for you.
Easy access to the information you are looking for.
Courtney from Jacksonville, FL
Florida State College at Jacksonville is a wonderful school that offers a little bit of something for everyone, whether you are all about location or the layout of campus there are several different options, and depending on what you're degree is in you will most likely be attending one class in particular. All of the professors are amazing, they care about their students and go out of their way to make sure they are providing a quality education. All of the facilities are great as well, each campus feels like it's own little community.
Joleen from Jacksonville, FL
Wide range of class choices.

Nice campuses, and online classes are great as well.

You can learn as much as you put into it!

My school year here has been very enjoyable. The classes are rigorous enough and the students as well as the staff challenge you to do better and excel. Not to mention tuition and other payments are fair
