Community College Viewbook - Career and Technical Education Programs
Oregon community colleges have over 60 campuses and centers throughout the state to serve you.

Community colleges are the largest provider of education via distance technology so you can prepare for a job, complete courses which transfer to a four-year university, or even earn a complete certificate or degree even if you can’t get to campus.

Whether you take one or two classes, carry a full load on track to a certificate or associate degree, or relax and enjoy a non-credit class for your own enrichment:

• You will enjoy first rate instruction and student support with small classes, personal attention, and staff and faculty dedicated to serving students.
• You will pay tuition which is about half that of Oregon’s public universities. Average cost per credit hour is about $71.04. The average annual tuition (including fees) for a full-time (45 credit hours) student in 2009-10 is $3,569.00.
• Community college students who transfer to public universities earn equal grade point averages and graduate with a bachelor’s degree at the same rate as students who started at those public universities.
