Financial Aid Issues

Students receiving financial aid of any type should consult with the university's Office for Student Financial Affairs to ensure their aid will not be affected by entry into the program. 

The following information was provided by the Provost in an October 22, 1999 memo:

Bright Futures Scholarships

  • Pays up to 132 credit hours
  • Pays for graduate courses at the undergraduate rate
  • Students must pay the difference between the graduate and undergraduate fees for graduate courses counting toward the undergraduate degree
Florida Prepaid Program
  •  Undergraduate and graduate students are eligible
  •  Pays up to 120 credit hours
  •  Graduate courses taken while an undergraduate are paid at the undergraduate rate
  •  Graduate courses taken after the bachelors degree are paid at the undergraduate rate
Other Financial Aid Programs
  • Combined degree programs affect virtually every financial aid program differently
  • Students should contact the Office for Student Financial Affairs for specific details


Students who complete their undergraduate degree in less than four years must pay the full cost of their graduate courses after they receive the undergraduate degree.
