the Cost of Tuition at a Junior College

I paid $25.00 per credit hour for a 3 hour class at a Jr. College. I also paid student activity fees and lab fees which brought the total for the class to $98.00. I also paid for books but was able to resell them so I'm not sure how much those actually ended up costing me out of pocket.

I think the price was very cheap and it definitely showed in the quality of education I received. The class size was very large with over 45 people. There was virtually no one on one time with the professor during class. He taught at 3 different schools in the area and did not have the time to have set office hours. I e-mailed him several times with questions and it took a long time for him to get back to me. The actual class was basically taught by him standing in front of us and paraphrasing from the text book. I felt as though I could have just read the book and gotten about the same amount of information.

You get what you pay for! If you are considering several schools see if you can go sit in on a class to see how it would be.
