As
a parent,
you know
it's
important
to help
your
child
choose
the right
college
for his
or her
education.
We hope
the following
helps
make
Flagler
College
your
choice:
- College
is
an
excellent
investment.
Over a lifetime,
and in most cases, college
graduates earn
more
than high school
graduates.
However, costs vary widely
for each institution
and just as important
is the value you'll
receive.
That value is the
balance
of the cost paid
and
the benefits received,
benefits such as
class
size, student-faculty
relationships, financial
aid, location, and the
opportunities
for graduate studies,
whether you can graduate
in four years and
the
success graduates
enjoy.
- Flagler
is
one
of
the
least
expensive
private
colleges
in
the
nation
and
is
recognized
in
Princeton Review, MoneyGuide
U.S.
News & World
Report
and
America's
Best
100 Buys
as
a
top
value
in
education
at
an
affordable
cost.
Florida
students
may
also
qualify
for
state
grants,
such
as
the
Florida
Resident
Access
Grant,
that
offset
the
cost
of
an
education.
For
more
information,
go
to
the
Costs section
of
this
web
site.
- The
annual
cost
for
tuition,
room
and
board at
Flagler
is
about
the
same
as
state
universities.
And
81
percent
of
Flagler
students
receive
help
with
costs
through
financial
aid.
Students
can
also
graduate
from
Flagler
in
four
years
(the
average
in
public
institutions
in
Florida
is
4.8
to
5.1
years).
