Cost Estimator
Cost Overview
Most families pay around $6,753 per year at Wilson Community College, though costs vary by income. Students from families making under $30,000 pay $6,809 annually, while middle-income families ($30,000-$48,000) get the best deal at $6,158 per year. Higher earners pay $7,739. Over two years, total costs range from $12,316 to $15,478. Only 5.85% of students take federal loans, and those who do graduate with just $10,500 in debt. That translates to monthly payments of $111, which is manageable against the $32,973 median earnings graduates see after ten years.
The college keeps costs low partly because it serves local students exclusively (100% in-state enrollment) and maintains small class sizes with a 9:1 student-faculty ratio. Only 9.17% of students receive institutional grants averaging $3,829, but the low base price means most families can afford it without heavy borrowing. Middle-income families get the sweetest deal thanks to need-based aid calculations.
