CUNY Stella and Charles Guttman Community College tuition

Published undergraduate tuition $5,194

Finding CUNY Stella and Charles Guttman Community College charges 6% below the national public median tuition.

Evidence Published tuition is $5,194. That is 6% below the national public median ($5,512). Versus the New York median ($13,810), sticker tuition is about 0.4×. Versus the U.S. median ($11,900), sticker is about 0.4×.

Method Sticker tuition compared with Scorecard-derived medians by ownership, state, locale, and national rollups when available.

Interpretation Published tuition measures sticker price relative to public and geographic peers; it does not equal what undergraduates typically pay after aid.

Limitation Sticker comparisons omit room, board, and institutional aid; average net price and income-band net prices are the stronger signals of typical family cost.

Evidence: published tuition at CUNY Stella and Charles Guttman Community College versus school-type, state, locale, and U.S. medians.

Evidence: average net price at CUNY Stella and Charles Guttman Community College versus state, locale, and U.S. medians.
