Tuition & Expenses

Jump to: Tuition and Housing | Fees | Program Related Fees

The College customarily budgets enough grant aid to meet the full calculated need of all enrolling students without using financial need as a criterion in the selection process. We are committed to helping students with demonstrated need cover their college costs—not just for the first year, but also for their entire time at WCCC. We evaluate family financial circumstances each spring to make sure that our understanding is current and that the need continues to exist.
