Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $5,418, with $588 in required fees, for a combined published amount of $6,006. The reported tuition and fee figures were the same for in-state and out-of-state undergraduates. Books, housing, food, transportation, and personal expenses are additional costs, so tuition and fees alone are not a complete annual budget.

What a student ultimately pays depends on living arrangements, course load, program charges, and financial aid. In the reported figures, 90% of students received financial aid and 11% used student loans. The average reported grant award to undergraduates was $6,650; an average is not an award estimate for an individual applicant.

For families with annual income of $48,000 or less, the reported average net price was $12,319. Net price is an estimated cost after grant and scholarship aid, not simply tuition after a discount; it can include living and other attendance expenses. Students should use a current, personalized aid offer and cost-of-attendance budget rather than subtracting the average grant from the published tuition figure.

Eligible students may be able to use federal grants and loans, Minnesota aid, scholarships, or military education benefits. Completing the appropriate financial aid application and reviewing the college's current deadlines are the practical first steps. Applicants should distinguish gift aid, which generally does not need to be repaid, from loans, which generally do.

What are the work-study opportunities at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College?

Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College students can use career-planning and job-search support while studying. Reported services include individual and group career counseling, résumé assistance, career-interest testing, job fairs, and help connecting with employers. These services are opportunities to prepare and apply; they are not evidence that a student will receive a job offer.

Federal Work-Study, when included in an eligible student's aid arrangements, is earned through a job rather than credited automatically against a bill. Eligibility and an award do not themselves secure a position: students still need to find and obtain a suitable job, and earnings depend on hours worked. Other part-time employment may be available without being a Federal Work-Study job.

Students seeking work should ask the financial aid office how student jobs are posted, whether off-campus positions qualify for Work-Study, and how employment could affect their class schedule. For career-related experience, they should separately ask their program about internships or placements; an internship is not required of every student.
