Cost Overview

Most families at Century College pay between $8,300 and $14,400 annually depending on income. Low-income students with family earnings under $30,000 pay just $8,624 per year after aid. The cost climbs to $14,374 for families earning over $110,000. Over two years, total expenses range from roughly $17,200 to $28,700.

Only 32.6% of students receive federal financial aid, suggesting many can afford the relatively modest costs. Graduates who borrow money leave with $14,250 in debt on average. Monthly loan payments of $151 represent just 4% of typical graduate earnings of $46,424 ten years later. The debt burden stays manageable because this community college focuses on practical workforce training rather than extended degree programs.

Working-class families get the best deal here. The combination of low tuition and strong job placement makes Century College particularly attractive for students seeking affordable career preparation in the Twin Cities area.
