Noncredit Course Costs and Age Requirements
AACC's noncredit courses are open to anyone with or without a diploma or degree who is16 years or older by the first day of class. Classes for younger than 16 years old are offered through Kids in College and Family Time Intergenerational courses. For intergenerational courses, all youths must register and be accompanied by a registered adult. Out-of-county residents are charged additional fees, and tuition for some courses may be waived for seniors. See below for details. Only enrolled students may attend class.
Course Costs for Non-County Residents
The price stated at the end of each course description is the total cost, including registration, tuition and supplies, lab or other fees, if any, for county residents. There is an additional charge of $5 per noncredit course for residents of other Maryland counties and $10 per course for out-of-state residents.
A business or agency located in Anne Arundel County which pays tuition for a non-resident employee/student, is not subject to the surcharge. Courses that do not follow these guidelines have costs indicated with course information.
Course Costs for Seniors
Maryland residents age 60 or older by the first day of class may have the tuition portion of the course cost waived for courses which do not have a dagger (†) next to the price and are not senior-only classes. For these tuition waived courses, seniors will be responsible for paying a $5 per course, course fee, any fees indicated in the course description and the out-of-county fee if applicable. Seniors residing out of state must pay the full course cost (including tuition, registration, course lab fee) plus the out-of-county and the out-of-state fees.
For all courses marked with a dagger (†) next to the course price, senior students must pay full course cost (including tuition, registration and course fee) plus out-of-county and out-of-state fees, if applicable.
For senior-only courses, seniors age 60 or older may take an unlimited number of senior-only courses for a $80 per three-month cycle plus supply fees if listed and out-of-county and out-of-state fees if applicable. Students age 55-59 pay $40 tuition per course in addition to the $80 three-month cycle fee. For questions concerning the pricing for these courses, call 410-777-2325.
