The Board is expected to approve nonresident tuition and capital outlay fees for Fiscal Year 2024/25. The average cost of instruction for California community colleges FY 2024/25 is $406 per unit. Historically, the Board has approved the state average as the amount for the nonresident tuition fee. The proposed amount of $406 for FY 2024/25 represents a reduction of $8 per unit from $414 for FY 2023/24.
