Namaste (Hi!) UNF is like a home away from home! The equality in opportunities and appreciation makes UNF, a truly rewarding experience. The educational system is extremely well designed and challenging. The numerous innovative extra-curricular activities keeps me fresh and healthy amidst the studies. UNF has given me opportunities to enhance my leadership qualities and has prepared me for the real world. I think I have become a more confident person since I have joined UNF.

I am senior at the University of North Florida. I am finishing a major in Fine Arts with concentration in Photography and a minor in Spanish. I love UNF because even if it is a big university, it keeps the classrooms small enough to have a relationship with your professors. I am originally from Geneva, Switzerland and I love the weather in Florida. I spend a great amount of time between my classes outside in the green open spaces. The campus is beautiful with lots of flowers, trees, plants, lakes, and fountains.	Bachelor of Fine Arts - Photography Arts, Visual, & Performing 2012 Switzerland

Admissions

How hard is it to get in?

"Total" shows the total number of applicants for a spot in the incoming freshman class for the last year reported.

"Admitted" shows the number of those applicants that were accepted and offered a place at the college or university, both in raw numbers and as a percentage of the total number who applied.

"Enrolled" shows the number of accepted applicants that actually enrolled and chose to attend the college or university, both in raw numbers and as a percentage of the total who applied.
Applicants	Total	Percentage
Total	16,083
Admitted	5,440	33.8%
Enrolled	2,506	15.6%

Completions

How many students graduate or transfer?

"Graduation Rate" shows the percentage of students from a particular incoming freshman class that stay at the school for their full studies and graduate; the "Transfer Rate" shows the percentage of students from a particular incoming freshman class that transfer to another college or university.
Type	Percentage
Graduation Rate	47%
Transfer-Out Rate	12%

Test Scores

What ACT/SAT scores do I need to get in?

Many colleges and universities in the US require either the SAT or the ACT, both standardized tests that help schools evaluate candidates.

In this chart, you can see how the middle portion of students admitted to the school fared on these tests—those from the 25th to the 75th percent of all accepted candidates. In other words, the chart does not show how the bottom 25% of all accepted candidates scored, and it does not show how the top 25% of all accepted candidates scored—but it shows how the middle half of candidates accepted to the school scored.

If you have taken the SAT or ACT, or you plan to, you can see where your score falls in comparison to this range, which will help you evaluate your likelihood of acceptance to this school.
Test	25th Percentile	75th Percentile
SAT Verbal	530	620
SAT Math	530	610
ACT Composite	22	25
ACT Math	20	25
ACT English	21	25

Tuition & Expenses

How much does it cost?

This chart shows the latest tuition and expense figures published by the school, for out-of-state students—as typically international students pay the out-of-state tuition costs.

The figures assume the student will be living on-campus with full university room and board. Off-campus students could spend more or less, depending on their situation.
Category	Cost
Tuition (Out of State)	$14,637
Room & Board (On Campus)	$8,476
Books & Supplies	$900
Other Expenses	$4,893
Total	$28,906

Financial Aid

Do students receive financial aid?

There are three pieces of data in this table, which are designed to show how likely it is that an international student will receive any financial aid from the college or university.

"Undergrads receiving any aid" shows the percentage of first-time undergraduate students who receive any type of financial aid. However, many types of financial aid at US colleges and universities are not available to international students—like Pell Grants, Stafford loans and other federal loan programs.

The second piece of data, "Undergrads receiving school grants", shows the percentage of first-time undergraduate students that receive aid directly from the school—often this type of aid is available to international students.

"Average amount of school grant" shows the average amount that is provided in this category of aid, that may be available to international students.
Category	Aid
Undergrads Receiving Any Aid	89%
Undergrads Receiving School Grant	31%
Average Amount of School Grant	$3,036
