Tuition and Fees

Tuition Rates (per credit hour)

In-State Students		$140

Out-of-State Students: Other Out-of-State Students		$490

*Contiguous counties are those which border Kentucky. Tuition is charged for each credit hour enrolled.

Tuition and fees are determined by the Kentucky Community and Technical College System Board of Regents. For payment deadlines, refer to the college academic calendar.

The amount you will pay as a KCTCS student depends on whether you’re a resident of Kentucky and how many classes you take. Tuition is generally due before you begin classes, but our payment plan gives you the option of making payments over time.

Additional charges for customized courses and services may apply.
