Cost of Attendance

Four Year DMD Internationally Educated Dentists

Tuition and Fees

Tuition and fees are subject to change without notice. This amount is payable in 2 equal installments in August and January of each academic year. Dental students do not pay tuition in the summer semester.

The registration fee includes a required student activity fee for each semester.

Health Insurance

All students in the IED program are required to be covered under a comprehensive health insurance policy either through their own or spouse/parents' insurance policy. A group health policy is available to UF students through the University of Florida Student Government.

Computer Policy

All UF students are required to have access to a computer and the Internet. No specific type of computer is required, so long as it meets the specifications spelled out in the UF computer policy guidelines.

Instrument Leasing

Dental students lease instruments from the college for their use in the instructional program. Leased instruments are sterilized, maintained, repaired and replaced under reasonable use as part of the leasing program. Students pay an instrument lease fee each semester which is included in financial aid calculations.

Cost of living

Fortunately, the cost of living, including housing, food and transportation cost in Gainesville, Florida is comparatively low. This reduces the total costs of education to Florida dental students when compared with other metropolitan areas.

Bottom Line

For 2008-09, the total cost of attendance (rent, meals, clothing, transportation, tuition, textbooks, instruments, computer, etc.) for the University of Florida College of Dentistry IED program is just over $48,000/year for residents of the state of Florida.
