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

You are getting a steal at this school. You can get three classes for under a grand, and they are very good classes that transfer. Only two of my classes didn't transfer because they weren't required at the school.
Cynthia from Troy, MI
OCC is an excellent choice for students, who want to save money and have a first rate education. You won't be disappointed if you choose this school. The people who work here are friendly and supportive. Also,
there are many services available to help meet the students' needs.
Hannah from Lathrup Village, MI
The cost of tuition is simply amazing! I love that the credits are very inexpensive. You would think that for the kind of education and help that you get from Oakland Community College that tuition would be high, but it is quite the opposite.
Morgan from Detroit, MI
Very low prices per credit hour. I have yet to pay more than $2000 for books and classes
Ian from Bloomfield Hills, MI
The classes are actually pretty cheap per credit hour. Currently I am taking 13 credits which can add up. I like how the classes are cheaper but this doesn't mean the professors are any less qualified than those at other colleges or universities. I am currently trying to take as many credits as I can at Oakland Community College as I can before I transfer to Bowling Green State University and the tuition cost increases. Oakland Community College also offers free tutors to you advantage that are always available and online help or support if needed.
Jaymie from Novi, MI
.Best way to save money. Great classes, tons of different classes to choose from if you are not sure what you want to do.
Alida from Auburn Hills, MI
I think this is a great place to spend money for classes. You can take a class which is $54 per credit hour, compared to other universities that charge thousands for dollars. Defiantly worth your money!
Skyla from West Bloomfield, MI
OCC is a great way to get a great education for a much lower price than any on the major universities! Many professors use the same curriculum that they use when the teach at the major universities.
