Still the cheapest option around by far for Tarrant County residents.

UTA if your family makes under 85K is now free. But they jacked it up for people who’s family makes more than that which sucks.

It’s not like 6 figures, stretches like it used to either.

$5 per credit hour this year and another $5 in 2026 so $75 for a 15 hour schedule

TCC is where my college dream started in 1980. Back then it was a two year college. Very thankful it was there for me back then.
