What it Costs to Go to QCC

Tuition and Fees
For Massachusetts residents the cost is $129 per credit of which $24 is for
tuition and $105 is for the educational service fee. For all other students the
cost is $335 per credit of which $230 is for tuition and $105 is for fees.
The Massachusetts universal health insurance law requires that all students enrolled for
9 or more credits participate in a comprehensive health insurance plan. The
premium charge for spring 2008 is $600 and is subject to change. It will appear
on your spring bill. The spring annual enrollment covers the period from January
1, 2008 through August 31, 2008. If you can certify alternative comparable
coverage, you can waive this health insurance by
completing the waiver form online, and the charge will be removed from your
account.
Free care is not considered a comparable coverage.
