Provided are a method and apparatus for compensating for a frequency offset in an interleaved frequency division multiple access. The method compensates for a frequency offset between a transmission signal and a reception signal for a u<th >user (1<=u<=U, where U denotes the number of users) in an interleaved frequency division multiple access. The method includes: (a) estimating the frequency offset from a selection signal that is determined as the reception signal for the u<th >user in an initial mode and as a feedback signal in a normal mode; (b) estimating multiple access interferences representing an extent to which reception signals for i<th >other users (1<=i<=U-1) at the same time interfere with the reception signal for the u<th >user; (c) subtracting the estimated multiple access interferences from the reception signal for the u<th >user and determining the subtraction result as the feedback signal; (d) determining whether steps (a), (b), and (c) have been repeated a predetermined number of times, and if it is determined that steps (a), (b), and (c) have not been repeated the predetermined number of times, going back to step (a); and (e) if it is determined that steps (a), (b), and (c) have been repeated the predetermined number of times, estimating the transmission signal for the u<th >user using the feedback signal finally determined in step (c) and the estimated frequency offset.
