tuition. Under this program, both graduate and post baccalaureate
students enrolled in graduate level courses in the college are eligible
to receive scholarships to help defray tuition costs for up to three
graduate level courses. The scholarship amounts vary depending on
availability of funds. Contact the Office of the Dean, COEHS Building

Deferred Loan Payment Plans
UNF offers two deferred payment plans to students. In
deferred payment plan number one, students pay for one half of the cost
of their tuition at the beginning of the term. They pay the remaining
half of the cost by mid term. Plan two allows students to arrange their
own schedule of payments. In this plan students can divide their
payments into any number which meets their needs. The final payment must
be made by the due date, which will fall approximately one month before
the end of the term. There is a $10 processing and handling fee
attached to this program. Applications for both programs can be picked
up at the UNF Cashier's office on campus. Check the course schedule book
for deadlines.
