Tuition and Fees

Schoolcraft is a publicly funded community college with tuition and fees that are much lower than those at four-year colleges and universities and competitive with those at nearby community colleges. Payment is due within 3 weekdays, including holidays, from when you register. Please begin the process of exploring all options for payment, including scholarships and financial aid, or sign up for the tuition payment plan. The College accepts cash, checks, money orders, VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. The payment plan allows for tuition and fees to be paid in installments. See the payment options link in Ocelot Access for more information.

The College uses your residency status to determine the tuition rates that students pay for credit bearing courses. Students are responsible for maintaining accurate contact information, including address, in their college file. There are deadlines for every semester by which students must update their residency status that impact tuition rates.
