Florida Prepaid College Plan

Local Fee Plan

The Florida Prepaid College local fee plan covers the required student activity and service, health and athletic fees charged by Florida's public universities, and the student activity and technology fees charged by community colleges. Local fees average $822 a year at a university and $173 a year at a community college. All students are required to pay these fees, even if they do not participate in campus activities, use on-campus health services or attend school athletic events. There are other fees, such as transportation and lab fees, that are not covered by the local fee plan.

The local fee plan supplements the tuition plan; therefore, it will be the same type as your tuition plan:

  • The Four-Year University Local Fee Plan only covers the student activity and service, athletic and health fees associated with 120 undergraduate credit hours of enrollment in a state university in Florida.
  • The 2 + 2 Local Fee Plan only covers the student activity and technology fees associated with 60 credit hours of enrollment in a community college, and the student activity and service, athletic and health fees associated with 60 undergraduate credit hours at a state university in Florida.
  • The Two-Year Community College Local Fee Plan only covers the student activity and technology fees associated with 60 credit hours of enrollment in a community college.

Please note:

  1. Local fee plans may only be purchased in conjunction with the corresponding tuition plan.
  2. Local fee plans are only available for students enrolled in or below the eighth grade.
