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 can't beat the price.. You can get all of you prereq's for a transferable BA here and save lots versus a typical 4 year University.
Robert from Roseville, CA
Attending Sierra college is THE smartest financial and educational decision that I have ever made. With classes costing only $26/unit, your tuition is often cheaper than the cost of books! On top of this, units from Sierra College are easily transferred to hundreds of colleges all over California.
Brett from Granite Bay, CA
The costs are all reasonable and you are getting more then you pay for. The time and dedication teachers put into teaching and helping is less than equivalent to the amount you pay. The only downfall is the price of books, but that's the case with any books, anywhere.
