2010 Community College Semester Annual Fees

California residents are charged $26 per unit for community college courses. A typical course is 3 or 4 units, for a cost of $78 to $104. A student who enrolls in 12 units is considered a full-time student - that student would pay $26 x 12 units = $312 per semester.

Nonresidents are charged out-of-state tuition in addition to the enrollment fee. Out-of-state tuition rates are set by each community college district but are generally between $140 and $170 per unit.
