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.

breahna from levelland, tx
The school is pretty cheap, in a good way! Financial Aid is always good. You get a lot for what you pay for!
Jaslyn from Lubbock, TX
The school is very inexpensive when compared to schools in this area. It costs a fraction of what it would to attend Texas Tech University for the first two years and the education is just as great. The teachers prepare you for the university that you will be going to next and they do not slack when it comes to education.
Great opportunity if you want to save some money
