    $71 per credit hour, but tution rates rise every year. I think ECC has one of the lowest rates in Missouri for a community college.

    Being a 2-year community college, this school has one of the cheapest tuition rates around. There are also many scholarships you can get and they offer book buyback at the end of the semester for everyone.

    Because East Central is a small community college the prices are so affordable! My tuition, including books, is about $2,000 a semester. It's great for getting general education classes out of the way so I don't have to pay a ton of money to take them at a bigger school.
