Tuition & Fees.Coastal Bend College is one of the most affordable public institutions in Texas. The college makes a distinction between in-district students, (those residing within the
Coastal Bend College District), and out-of-district students, (those residing outside the college district). Out-of-State tuition is paid by non-Texas residents. Texas
residents pay approximately $1440 and out-of-state students pay approximately $2640 per academic year. CBC offers quality at a bargain. Tuition and fees are published annually in the college catalog and are also available via the college website.
Academic ProgramsThe Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board designates the Associate in
Arts and Associate in Science as collegiate degrees related to baccalaureate
degrees in arts and science. At CBC, students may earn either of these
associate degrees by completing planned curricula of freshman and
sophomore academic courses. These are approved by the Coordinating
Board and are transferable to senior colleges and universities in Texas. CBC
maintains contact with these institutions to ensure that CBC academic courses are equivalent to those at four-year colleges.
Workforce Education ProgramsWorkforce Education refers to the college’s technical and vocational education programs. Workforce Education is any form of education,
training or retraining which prepares persons to enter or continue employment inany recognized occupation. The primary responsibility
for providing post-secondary Workforce Education in Texas has been given to community colleges. CBC accepts responsibilities for
providing high quality Workforce programs tailored to meet the needs of people in its geographic area.
Workforce Education offerings at CBC include technical programs and others in the fields of business, industry, health and public services.
To assure that these programs continue to provide relevant training, the college uses advisory committees. Each area of study has an
advisory committee made up of professionals in the field who advise college officials in planning, conducting and evaluating programs.

Coastal Bend College offers the Associate in Arts degree; the Associate in Science
degree; the Associate in Applied Science degree; and Certificates of Achievement in specialized workforce education
(technical/vocational) fields. . The Associate in Arts degree is designed for students planning to transfer to
senior colleges and universities or for those seeking general education offered by the first two years of college. The
curriculum provides the foundation of a liberal arts education drawn from the
humanities, fine arts, and sciences. The Associate in Science degree is also
designed for transfer students, but the curriculum permits more specialization
than that of the Associate in Arts degree. . Students enrolled
in workforce education programs must have declared
program majors toward Associate in Applied Science
degrees or Certificates of Achievement. The Associate in Applied Science degree is awarded
for successful completion of a two-year prescribed workforce education curriculum. The
Certificate of Achievement is awarded for successful completion of a specialized curriculum in
any of a number of technical or vocational fields. It is possible to earn an Associate in Applied
Science degree and a Certificate of Achievement. Whatever your dreams and goals might be,
Coastal Bend College can help you achieve them.
