Yavapai College Tuition & Fees Set for 2024-25

 

Clarkdale, Arizona (November 29, 2023) – Tuition and fees at Yavapai College have been set for the 2024-25 academic year.

The Yavapai College District Governing Board (DGB) unanimously approved changes to the College’s tuition and fees at its monthly board meeting on Tuesday.

Yavapai College remains one of Arizona's most affordable options for higher education.

YC’s tuition and fees are:

  • 81% below the Arizona public university average for full-time students
  • 38% below the national community college average for full-time students
  • 23% below the national community college average for part-time students
  • 8% below the Arizona community college average for full-time students
  • Students can save an estimated $18,000 by attending Yavapai College for their first and second years rather than attending a four-year Arizona university.

YC also offers numerous discounts to its students, including a full-time student discount, dual credit discount, and senior citizen discount. In addition, YC’s Promise program for high school graduates and Workforce Promise for career and technical education allows students to get their degrees for free.
