What will it actually cost?
Sticker price: Data not available
Net price (after aid): $36,273
Most students pay the net price after financial aid, not the sticker price.
Net price by family income
$0 – $30k: $36,299 (above the federal borrowing ceiling)
$30k – $48k: $35,977 (above the federal borrowing ceiling)
Can federal loans cover it? (2026 limits)
For families earning $0 – $30k, $30k – $48k, the average net price here is above the $25,500 a first-year dependent student and their parents can borrow federally from 1 July 2026, by up to $10,799. That part has to come from savings, income, work, or private loans.
The ceiling is $5,500 in the student’s own Direct Loan plus up to $20,000 in Parent PLUS, which requires that the parent has no adverse credit history. Net prices are averages for a prior cohort of aid recipients, not a quote. Source: Federal Student Aid loan limits. Where this gap is largest.

FAFSA earnings check
: Not flaggedFlorida Education Institute does not trigger the FAFSA's "lower earnings" notice. Its graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $34,346, above the $33,352 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Florida.
It was flagged in the December 2025 release and came off the list when the Department refreshed the data on 22 March 2026, so news coverage from December may still name it.
This is one figure for the whole institution, not for any program: earnings differ by credential and field. It covers graduates who completed in 2017-18 and 2018-19, received federal aid, and were working and not enrolled when earnings were measured in 2022 and 2023, in January 2026 dollars. The Department says the notice is informational only: it does not change aid eligibility. Source: U.S. Department of Education, FSA Data Center, March 2026 release.

Academics
Studying online: a substantial share study entirely online
In Fall 2023, 110 of Florida Education Institute's 652 students (17%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 392 (60%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.
Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.

Frequently asked questions
About Florida Education Institute
Built from CampusPin profile data. Always verify final admissions, cost, financial aid, and program details with the institution before applying. See our data methodology and data dictionary.
- Where is Florida Education Institute located?
- Florida Education Institute is located in Miami, FL, in the United States.
- What type of institution is Florida Education Institute?
- Florida Education Institute is a private community college based in FL. CampusPin classifies institutions as either four-year universities or two-year community colleges, with control labeled public or private.
- Is Florida Education Institute open admission?
- Yes. Florida Education Institute reports an open admission policy to the federal IPEDS survey (IPEDS, admission policy reported in the 2024-25 IC collection), which IPEDS defines as accepting any student who applies. Individual programs, often nursing and other health programs, can still set their own entry requirements, so check the program you want with the college.
- How many students attend Florida Education Institute?
- Florida Education Institute reports total enrollment of approximately 318 students (undergraduate plus graduate) (IPEDS, fall 2024 enrollment). Total enrollment is a useful sizing signal, see the institutional profile for additional breakdowns when available.
- How much does Florida Education Institute actually cost after financial aid?
- The average net price at Florida Education Institute is approximately $36,273 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.
- What is the graduation rate at Florida Education Institute?
- Florida Education Institute reports a graduation rate of approximately 74% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.
- How much student debt do graduates of Florida Education Institute have?
- Students who borrowed at Florida Education Institute left with a median of approximately $9,500 in federal loans, and about 58% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
- How much do graduates of Florida Education Institute earn?
- Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $24,588 for students who received federal financial aid at Florida Education Institute. This reflects the mix of programs the institution offers and the students who enroll, not the effect of attending, and it covers aid recipients rather than all graduates.
- How should I verify final details about Florida Education Institute?
- CampusPin compiles institutional data from public datasets like IPEDS and the College Scorecard, plus institutional websites and editorial review. Before applying, paying a deposit, or making a final decision, confirm admissions requirements, current tuition, financial aid, deadlines, and program details directly with Florida Education Institute.
- How much do Medical Assisting and Allied Health graduates from Florida Education Institute earn?
- Florida Education Institute's certificate graduates in Medical Assisting and Allied Health earned a median $30,373 four years after graduating, 11% below the $34,272 national median for the same program (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $20,084; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $9,500 in federal loans at this college (about $101 a month on a 10-year plan).
- How much do Culinary Arts and Related Services graduates from Florida Education Institute earn?
- Florida Education Institute's certificate graduates in Culinary Arts and Related Services earned a median $32,935 four years after graduating, 8% above the $30,572 national median for the same program (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $20,531; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $9,500 in federal loans at this college (about $101 a month on a 10-year plan).
- Which programs at Florida Education Institute have the highest graduate earnings?
- Among the 4 programs at Florida Education Institute with a federal earnings figure from at least 30 graduates, the highest medians four years after graduating were HVAC Technology, certificate ($41,244); Culinary Arts and Related Services, certificate ($32,935); and Health and Medical Administration, certificate ($32,013) (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). That order is one federal measure, not a ranking of program quality: earnings reflect the field and where graduates go to work as well as the program.
- Does Florida Education Institute get a "lower earnings" warning on the FAFSA?
- No. In the Department of Education's March 2026 data, which the FAFSA uses now, Florida Education Institute's graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $34,346, above the $33,352 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Florida, so first-year students who list it do not see the lower-earnings notice. The figure describes the whole institution, not any one program. It was flagged in the December 2025 release and came off the list when the Department refreshed the data on 22 March 2026, so news coverage from December may still name it.
