Tuition, Cost & Aid
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
It is very affordable, class-wise and book-wise! There are many options of when and where to take your courses (nights, day, and online). It is a great environment for learning, as it is a smaller college, so professors are typically more invested in their students. It is definitely worth considering if you'd like an affordable, quality general education before you transfer to a four-year school!
Karina from Eagan, MN
The tuition is the cheapest I have seen for a great quality of learning
Marlea from Farmington, MN
Financially, this school is great! You don't pay a lot of money and learn only from the book. The professors are knowledgeable and keep you up to date on the field that you are studying. There are also a lot of readily available resources.
