About Tuition & Fees
RCC charges tuition per credit hour, so you only pay for the classes you take. In-state students from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, California and Nevada all qualify for the same low rate. Additional universal fees support campus technology, student services and resources that directly benefit your education.
