Tuition for full-time students attending the Community College of Allegheny County is going up 3.3% for the 2023-24 school year.
Tuition for students from Allegheny County will go from $1,830 to $1,890 per semester.
Students from other Pennsylvania counties will pay $3,780 per semester in tuition, up from $3,660. Out-of-state tuition will be $5,670, up from $5,490.
There will be no increase in the student services fee regardless of residency.
The new tuition means the rate for Allegheny County residents will be $126 per credit, or $4 per credit more.
The tuition increase is included in the $107.3 million budget for next school year that CCAC’s board of trustees approved Thursday.
“Although we are asking students to make an additional investment in their education, the college’s in-county tuition remains in the lower quartile in the state (among community colleges), with 75% of CCAC students graduating debt-free,” board Chair Kevin Kinross said in a news release.
CCAC’s board also authorized a three-year contract extension for President Quintin Bullock through June 30, 2028. Bullock’s had been working on a five-year contract that began in 2020.
CCAC spokeswoman Dena Rose Buzila said no other terms in the contract were changed. Bullock, who has been CCAC’s president since 2014, has a salary is $297,168.
