The ACC Free Tuition pilot program eliminates the cost of tuition and general fees at Austin Community College.

It starts with the high school class of 2024 and will continue over the next five years for high school graduates and GED® completers who live in the ACC service area. Removing the up-front costs of college means you can feel comfortable about investing in your future and go to school full-time, reaching your full potential faster.

Students with ACC Free Tuition can also apply for scholarships, grants, and loans for everyday expenses, like housing, groceries, and transportation.

CONGRATULATIONS to the High School Class of 2024 on earning your high school diploma or GED® certificate! Start your college journey this fall with ACC FREE TUITION.

We’ll cover your tuition and general fees for three full years after graduation/GED completion or up to five years if you continue at ACC and enroll in an ACC bachelor’s degree program.

Want to start your degree with full confidence? ACC’s College Prep and Career Pathways programs can help you earn college credit while preparing you for success in college and your career. They’re free and open to everyone.
