Typical Costs Associated with Attending Daytona State College

Most individuals calculate the cost of a college education by the amount of tuition and fees charged plus the cost of books and supplies. These are direct educational expenses. There are, however, indirect educational expenses, such as personal and transportation expenses, for which students will need to budget. Below are charts illustrating examples of both in-state and out-of-state budgets for full-time college credit and vocational credit students for one academic year (Fall and Spring Semesters). These costs are tentative until District Board of Trustees approval.
