Do you know what college REALLY costs?
SKYCTC is one of the most affordable colleges in the state! Most SKYCTC students will pay less than $2,500 out-of-pocket, and many will pay NO TUITION at all. We know college tuition and fees can be confusing! Read on to learn what you actually pay at SKYCTC, or schedule a meeting with one of our staff.
Most SKY students attend SKY with ZERO TUITION COST. How is this possible? Most SKYCTC students have access to aid (free money) and get all or most of their tuition covered. Sound too good to be true? Read on to learn how you can get two years of college TUITION FREE at SKYCTC.
1. If you can, take Dual Credit in High School
SKYCTC offers the DC to Finish scholarship for high school students who take at least nine credit hours of dual credit with SKY. You can get 25% to 100% of your tuition cost PAID depending on the grades you earn in your dual credit classes. Check out our DC to Finish Scholarship for more information.
2. You could get trained for a high-paying, in-demand job completely tuition free!
With the Work Ready Kentucky Scholarship you can earn up to 60 credit hours in a high-demand career completely tuition free! This scholarship is not based on income or ability to pay. Learn more here.
3. Make Your Tuition Dollars Go Further
SKYCTC has the lowest tuition in Kentucky – less than half of a four-year university. That means your financial aid dollars go further at SKY! Most SKY students even receive a REFUND, which can be used for other educational expenses. Plus, there are no mandatory housing, parking pass cost, or meal plan requirements.
4. No Aid? No Problem
About 25% of SKYCTC students are not eligible for financial help from Federal and State agencies. These students are still eligible to receive SKYCTC scholarships! Additionally, students in technical courses can get the Work Ready Kentucky Scholarship, which pays 100% of the tuition cost. Even without scholarships, the cost of tuition and books is still within reach, with tuition less than $1,500 per semester.
5. Work and Go to School
Regardless of aid, many of our students choose to work and go to college at the same time. SKYCTC offers flexible classes that make balancing work and education a bit easier. Check out SKYFAME and SKY Flex for college that accommodates student’s busy schedules.
