<p>Community college in Maryland does NOT cost $5,000 a year in tuition. I was curious so I went to check and I looked at a couple of MD CCs. In-state tuition costs between $1500-2700 for in-county students, and around $3,000 for in-state but out-of county residents…</p>
<p>Anne Arundel County resident $88
Residents of other Maryland counties $169</p>
<p>$169 times 30 credit hours is $5000+ if you don’t live in that particular county. And that is not including fees. </p>
<p>Frederick County
in county out county out of state
1 $170.35 $290.35 $370.35
2 $290.70 $530.70 $690.70
3 $411.05 $771.05 $1,011.05 </p>
<p>This one is even higher for county residents and fees are extra. And I don’t think every county has a community college, so some would have to go out of county.</p>
<p>Or is my math way off?</p>
