Top 20 Most Valuable Associate’s Degree Programs Online
#1
Some of these colleges are a great value?  Great Basin College online is $50/Credit for out-of-state.  Cheaper than most in-states CC's?
 
Most I have never heard of, but Cochise College has the only AAS in intelligence Operations Studies degree program.  Truckee Meadows Community College has a 4-year BAS degree in EM.

I'm not seeing the $50/hr. I see 91.50 (for NV residents) PLUS 45.75 for out of state. Or am I misreading something? Just shy of $150/hr still isn't bad tho.

You have to be looking at the non-resident internet only chart. Fees increased from 2016/2017 to 2017/2018.

Lower level credits are $95 + $47.50 + $5.50.

Upper level credits are $155.50 + $77.75 + $5.50.

Except in the summer when they are cheaper. $101.75 + $5.50 LL, or $164.75 + $5.50 UL.

Plus lab fees and application fee.

So, is my math wrong, or are the New Mexico community colleges still generally the cheapest option for online out of state college classes?

New Mexico Jr College only asks $64 per credit up to 12 credits, no charge after 12- it's unlimited -not that a normal person would take many more than 4 per term, but if you did, you could really get the costs down. I did 1 semester during my BA where I did 21 credits (2 colleges) but they were overlapped start/stop so it was really just a few weeks of hell Wink But, 7 classes (21 cr) would only be $768.

Cooderosa,

NM CC's most likely are STILL the lowest. This list just gives a few more to pick from. It's nice to see other degree options.

I think for California residents, they have the lowest fee for tuition.
But for non residents, New Mexico rocks. Example college in Cali.

I'm not sure they allow 21-24 cr in a term, but that would be amazing if so. I think 18 cr is the maximum and that it needs permission.

$768 for tuition, but add $40 per internet course, and $18 per credit for general usage fee. Still a very good deal.

TX has low in-state too, and some others. TN will if doesn't already. I think TN is going to be free for community colleges.

KS in-state is good, but not as good as some.
