TCC’s professors will take you all the way from problem-solving through computer applications to programming to advanced concepts, such as virtual memory. Much of the classroom instruction takes place in labs with ready access to computers, and you can complete assignments at home using free software made available to students.

First-time college students who meet GPA and other requirements may qualify for a 2-year transfer grant to apply toward tuition. Grants of $1,000 may be awarded for your junior and senior years.

Students in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) disciplines may be eligible for an additional $1,000 each year.
