Cost of attending STLCC

There are no surprises when paying for classes at STLCC. Our technology and activity fees are built into the overall cost, so what you see is what you pay. Costs include a $7.00 activity fee, $11 technology fee, and $5.00 service fee per credit hour.

Fall 2023 - Summer 2024

Some classes do come with additional course fees. These classes are clearly labeled in the course description or online in the Interactive Class Schedule.

STLCC also charges a flat fee of $25 per bounced check.

** The Missouri Senior Scholarship rate is for Missouri seniors age 65 and older. The student must register by phone, email, or in-person at an STLCC location on the Friday before classes begin. Seniors who register prior to the Friday before classes begin will be responsible for paying the standard senior rate, and may not switch to the senior scholarship rate.

The Senior Scholarship offers the opportunity to audit classes on a space available basis. Auditing students are not required to take examinations. Audited classes carry no credit and do not count as a part of one’s course load. Completing an audit of a class carries no implication concerning class attendance or skill accomplishment. Students who audit a class must meet all of the academic pre-requisites for regular registration in the course. Visit Missouri Senior Scholarship Registration for details on the registration periods.

Am I a resident?

You’re eligible to enroll as a resident if you live in the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County and portions of Franklin and Jefferson counties included in the Meramec Valley R-III and Rockwood R-6 school districts.

If you live in Missouri, but aren’t part of our home district, you’re eligible for the in-state (other Missouri resident) rate.

When do I pay tuition

Maintenance fees are due before the term begins. If you register for a class after the deadline has passed, you’ll pay for your class when you sign up. If you pay your balance in full and have a hold on your account, please allow up to one business day for financial holds to be released.
