Estimated Cost of Attendance
A student's financial need is based on the total cost of attendance at Southwestern Community College (SWCC). The cost of attendance sets the limit on the total financial aid a student may receive.
Cost of attendance is an estimate based on average educational expenses you can incur while attending SWCC. The Net Price Calculator is a tool that allows students to enter information to find out an estimated cost to attend SWCC. We encourage all students and families to research their individual costs related to their educational program.
It is important to understand the difference between direct and indirect costs:
- Direct Costs: Expenses that a student pays directly to the college. SWCC direct costs include tuition, fees, housing and meals. (Expenses vary depending on living arrangement).
- Indirect Costs: Estimated expenses that are not paid directly to the college. SWCC indirect costs include books, transportation, and miscellaneous expenses. Indirect costs can and will vary greatly for each student.
The cost of attendance charts below are broken down by in-state and out-of-state residents and living arrangement.
