Cost
The Financial Aid Cost of Attendance is the estimated cost of completing a year (two semesters) of full-time attendance at the college. This generally includes tuition and fees, living expenses (housing and food), books and supplies, transportation expenses, personal and miscellaneous expenses. The Financial Aid Office uses these costs to develop standard student budgets for awarding financial aid funds. Estimated student budgets reflect typical "modest but adequate" expense patterns of Central Carolina Community College students based on research conducted by the Financial Aid Office. Enrollment level, number of completed credits, major field of study, and room and board (dependency/independency) options all contribute to the determination of the costs. While actual expenses will depend on your lifestyle and level of enrollment, the estimated costs listed on this page should assist you in planning your own budget.
We encourage all students to apply for financial aid as early as possible to benefit from available funding.

2023-2024 Less Than Half-time Cost of Attendance
The following chart shows the budget for less than half time students for Federal Pell purposes only. If a less than half-time enrollment status is a result of dropped or never attended classes prior to the measurement date, Pell will be reduced and an over-award could occur. It is your responsibility as a student to repay any over-award before receiving additional federal aid.
