Scottsdale Community College (SCC) and the Maricopa County Community College District are investing millions of dollars to keep our students on track. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed all of our lives in numerous ways. In many cases, it has greatly impacted college plans due to concerns with being able to afford tuition. To provide assistance, we are offering the following options starting with the Fall 2020 semester:
2020-2021 Tuition Discounts
Maricopa County Resident – $1,020 flat rate per semester for 12 credits or more plus $15 registration fee and other course fees may apply. If you’re currently registered for less than 12 credits, consider adding another class (or two) and save significantly on tuition.
Out-of-State Resident – Out-of-state students residing in Arizona with a lawful presence who do not qualify for in-state residency status may be eligible for the in-state tuition rate for the first 6 credits. Tuition is $85 per credit hour for up to 6 credits (out-of-state surcharge waived) plus $15 registration fee and other course fees may apply. Additional credits taken will be charged the out-of-state rate.
Note, if students have already registered for Fall classes and paid their tuition, they will receive a refund of the difference back via their original payment method.
