About This School

Flagler College is a private nonprofit institution located in Saint Augustine, Florida with approximately 2,404 undergraduate students enrolled. Flagler College has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 78%. The average net price after financial aid is $29,951 per year.

Flagler College is a private liberal arts college in St. Augustine, Florida, United States. The school was founded in 1968 and offers 44 undergraduate majors and two master's programs. It also operated the Flagler College – Tallahassee Campus from 2000 to 2024.

The numbers tell a mixed story here — a charming liberal arts college set in historic St. Augustine with a relatively low median debt of $15,000 at graduation, but a 56% graduation rate and 68% freshman retention rate suggest a meaningful number of students don't finish or leave early, which is worth taking seriously. Median earnings of $42,200 a decade out are modest, so this is a better fit if you're drawn to fields like education, communications, or the arts and value campus culture over career earnings. Worth considering if the small-college feel and location appeal to you, but visit first and ask hard questions about academic support.
