Projected Costs Between $43,632 and $130,443 For a Four Year Degree. Between $23,678 and $66,966 For a Two Year Degree.

It can be a bit scary to look at the total projected cost of a college education over the course of a multi-year degree, however, doing so will help you better understand the financial commitment you are making.

The overall cost for on-campus, in-state students to attend Central Piedmont Community College in 2019 - 2020 was $19,777. To calculate future costs, we looked at the prior five years of data and determined that this cost decreased an average of 3.4% each year.

If this trend continues, we expect the full cost for incoming freshmen to be $18,444 during their first year. By their senior year, that cost will be approximately $16,610, for a bachelor degree candidate ($17,811 for an associate degree candidate) for a total of $70,065 over the course of four years ($36,255 over the course of two years). These numbers do not take into consideration financial aid, which reduces this overall cost by varying amounts per student.

The cost for out-of-state students is more, with an overall expected four-year cost of $94,458 based on a yearly growth rate of -2.6%. The expected two-year cost is $48,492.

Remember, the full costs quoted above are not what most students will pay, and the net price varies quite a bit based on individual circumstances.
