Florida Career College-Jacksonville
For-profit College in Jacksonville, FL.
Academics
The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. Retention is weak: only 47% of full-time first-years return, so roughly one in two leave after one year. At 21:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. As a for-profit short-program school, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. At 989 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24
Students pay $35,188 a year on average after aid, a premium price that the earnings data has to justify. Income makes less difference than usual: $35,143 at $0–30k, $37,641 at $110k+. Most students get help: 97% receive grants worth $5,110 on average. Borrowing is widespread: 69% take federal loans.
Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $35,143 |
| $30–48k | $35,279 |
| $48–75k | $35,166 |
| $75–110k | $39,629 |
| $110k+ | $37,641 |
