Morgan Community College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Morgan Community College?

For 2025-26, MCC's reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees totaled approximately $4,252 for Colorado residents and $17,763 for nonresidents. These are published charges, not a complete annual budget or a prediction of what every student will pay.

• Colorado resident: $4,058 in reported tuition plus $194 in required fees.
• Nonresident: $16,658 in reported tuition plus $194 in required fees.
• Reported part-time tuition: $169 per credit for residents or $694 per credit for nonresidents, before applicable fees.

Students also need to budget for books and materials, transportation, food, and housing, even though MCC does not operate residence halls. Certain courses may add program-specific expenses. A student living with family and taking a few credits will therefore face a different total from a full-time student renting an apartment.

Financial aid changes the comparison. In the reported figures, average net price for students from families earning no more than $48,000 was $6,959; net price includes estimated attendance expenses after grant and scholarship aid, rather than tuition alone. It is an average for a defined group, not an individual quote. Eligible Colorado residents should also check the Colorado Opportunity Fund stipend, which can reduce the tuition they are billed when its requirements are met. The college's current cost-of-attendance estimate and an individual aid offer are better tools for planning a specific year.

What are the work-study opportunities at Morgan Community College?

Eligible MCC students may be able to combine classes with part-time work, including Federal Work-Study positions when awarded and available. Work-Study is a need-based federal aid program: a student must generally submit the FAFSA, meet eligibility conditions, receive an award, and obtain a job to earn wages.

An award is not money paid automatically or a guarantee of a position. Students interested in campus jobs should ask the financial aid office how MCC advertises openings, whether a position requires Work-Study eligibility, and how schedules fit around labs or clinical placements. Ordinary part-time employment and internships follow different hiring and academic rules.

For longer-term planning, MCC reports individual and group career counseling and individual job-placement assistance for undergraduates. Students can ask an adviser about choosing a career pathway and the experience employers expect; those services should not be confused with a guaranteed job offer.
