Tuition, Cost & Aid

Affordability and Cost

Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.

Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

What Students Are Saying

Glendale Community College is not only inexpensive for the number of units and classes that one student takes during each semester, but it also provides you with the greatest knowledge from professors who guide you towards your goals, dreams, careers, and much more. It is the best solution for students whose parents cannot afford to pay out of pocket and if you apply for financial aid and receive aid then you don't have to pay anything except for your books.
The Wise Student
This is a great college to attend if you are in need of help financially. The tuition for classes is about $26 dollars per unit. This has helped me save a lot of money as I pay for my general education classes in order to transfer to another school. Just make sure you fill out both the FAFSA and BOG in time so you can receive your financial aid on time rather than the end of the semester.
Robyn from Glendale, CA
The classes are very inexpensive and definetly worth it. You get so much quality for such a low price.
