Community College Guarantee

Earn your degree debt-free!

In-district high school graduates from the 2023 and 2024 classes are eligible to attend WCC tuition-free as part of the Michigan Community College Guarantee.

Whether you want to save money before transferring to a four-year college, or you want to earn a degree or certificate to land a higher paying job, WCC is going to help you get there. What makes WCC the best option?:

• It's easy to transfer from WCC to 4-year colleges in or out of state.
  • We're proud to be the leading transfer institution to the University of Michigan!
• With 130+ programs, nearly half offered online, we have something for everyone.
• Each student has a personalized success team ready to help you tackle challenges inside and outside of the classroom.
• More than 30 clubs, organizations, sports and e-sports.

You're eligible to attend WCC tuition-free if you:

• Have been a Michigan resident since July 1 of the previous calendar year.
• Graduated from a Michigan high school in 2023 or 2024.
• Are an in-district student.
  • If you're not in-district, you'll still receive scholarship dollars and will only pay the difference between in-district and out-of-district costs.
• Enroll in college full-time within 15 months of your high school graduation.
