Tuition and Costs

UTampa was named to Kiplinger's 2019 Personal Finance's list of the 400 Best College Values for 2019. The analysis is based on objective measurements of academic quality and affordability. In addition, UTampa's tuition price is 20-25% below the national average when compared to most other independent colleges and universities.
 
About 92% of students at UTampa receive financial aid in the form of scholarships, grants and loans, which are available for those who qualify. Aid is generally available for U.S. citizens or permanent residents only. International students are required to furnish proof of available funds. Find more financial information for international students here.
 
Veterans and medically disabled students may be eligible for other resources of aid.
 
Amounts due are usually paid each semester in lump sums, but alternate payment plans are available.
