Tuition:

Tuition is FREE for fall and spring semesters.

(Huskins classes are not offered in the summer. If you want to take a CFCC class in the summer, you may do so through Concurrent Enrollment.)

Textbooks and Supplies:

Unless your school provides textbooks, you are responsible for purchasing all required textbooks and supplies for each class you take. Some classes, such as cosmetology, require students to purchase scrubs and other additional supplies. Your instructor will give you information on how to purchase supplies not found in the CFCC Bookstore.

See the CFCC Bookstore for current book listings and prices.

All student fees are due at the beginning of the semester.
