Schoolcraft Community College District

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

Schoolcraft's published academic costs vary by residency, credit load, and course. For 2024-25, reported average full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees totaled approximately $5,057 for in-state students and $6,501 for out-of-state students. These totals combine the tuition and required-fee figures for each category; they do not include living expenses.

• 2024-25 in-state full-time tuition: $4,126, plus $931 in required fees.
• 2024-25 out-of-state full-time tuition: $5,570, plus $931 in required fees.
• Reported part-time tuition per credit: $200 in-state or $280 out-of-state, before applicable fees.
• Reported books and supplies allowance: $1,894; an individual student's spending will depend on their courses.

Because the college does not operate student housing, a published room-and-board figure is a living-cost estimate, not a charge for a Schoolcraft residence hall. Transportation, personal expenses, and program-specific materials can also affect the total cost of attendance. Students should use a current, credit-by-credit estimate for their actual schedule rather than add figures from different reporting years into a single bill.

Financial aid can make the amount paid lower than the published cost. In the reported net-price figures, the average was $991 for students from families with annual income of $48,000 or less and $3,900 for those in the next income band, through $75,000. Net price is an average after grant aid for the students included in that measure; it is not a quoted price or guaranteed award for a new applicant.

What are the work-study opportunities at Schoolcraft Community College District?

Schoolcraft students can look for part-time work alongside their studies, but a campus job, Federal Work-Study position, and internship are different opportunities. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid earned through eligible employment; it is not a grant paid simply because a student receives an aid offer.

Students interested in Work-Study should complete the FAFSA, review their financial-aid eligibility, and ask the financial-aid office how eligible positions are posted and hired. Even an award generally requires finding a job and working the hours. Ordinary part-time jobs do not require a Work-Study award, while internships may be tied to a program and can be paid or unpaid under separate terms.

For a broader job search, the college's career resources include a job bank, résumé and interview assistance, career counseling, job fairs, and on-campus employer recruitment. Those services can help students explore work, but access to them does not guarantee a position.
