Best per credit hour. Make sure you need all the classes you are getting as prereqs. Some classes have more credit hours than other programs needs. Save more $$ if you can.

The tuition is reasonably priced because it is a community college. Like most colleges, they charge a student per credit hour so it depends if a student wants to participate full time or part time. There are also scholarships offered to students if they decide to attend there, which partially pays for tuition, fully pays for tuition, or helps in other ways.
