Affordability and Cost
Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.
Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

What Students Are Saying
But the best thing about AACC is that you get the best of the best and you still have enough money to eat food OTHER then ramen!!
Jessica from Severn, MD
Very cheap college and definitely my first choice even if I was accepted by Harvard.
Maryland
Reasonably priced and thousands of classes to choose from. I take about 4 to 6 classes per semester and it only costs me any where from $1,300- $1,500. Varrying on the classes you take and how many.
Sarah from Pasadena, MD
I would say that I'm definitely getting my money's worth with this school.
Samantha from Hanover, MD
Very cheap, transferable credits, especially if you live (and/or plan to attend a 4-year college) in-state.
Richard from Glen Burnie, MD
I think this college has a wonderful value. Most professors are experts in their field, and they care about their students, which motivates the students to do better. There's a huge variety of available classes, without having to walk three football fields to get from class to class.
