Thank you for choosing one of our campuses/centers to continue your education at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. As you may know, MGCCC is primarily funded by the state legislature, county taxes, and student tuition/fees. Because reductions by the state legislature and the Governor have significantly affected our budget, many difficult decisions during the past few years have been necessary, including tuition increases.
Our Board of Trustees approved FY 2011 budget May 19, 2010, which includes areas that directly impact you as a student effective in the 2010 fall semester.
