Paying for College > Dare to Compare >
You can save hundreds, even thousands of dollars by attending Clinton, Muscatine or Scott Community College. Our tuition is the lowest in the state of Iowa and we offer a wide variety of financial aid options including scholarships, grants and loan programs. Options are available to students of all ages, whether you just graduated from high school or have been away from school for a number of years.
In addition to the money you save on tuition, you also save by living at home rather than paying for expensive room and board fees at an out-of-town institution. Compare for yourself! Here's a list of the 2007-08 tuition, and room and board costs for Iowa's colleges and universities:
