About This School

Arkansas State University Mid-South is a public institution located in West Memphis, Arkansas with approximately 435 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $3,558 per year. Typical graduates earn $26,700 within 10 years of enrollment.

Arkansas State University Mid-South, formerly Mid-South Community College (MSCC), is a public community college in West Memphis, Arkansas. ASU Mid-South offers degree programs, technical courses, community educational offerings, and intercollegiate athletics.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $3,558 per year after aid, this is one of the most affordable college options you'll find anywhere, making it a genuinely low-risk place to start a degree. However, median earnings of $26,700 a decade after enrollment are modest, so students should think carefully about which programs lead to stronger outcomes and whether the career paths they're pursuing can support their financial goals. Worth considering if you need an affordable entry point into higher education and plan to transfer or build toward a specific in-demand career, but go in with clear intentions rather than an open-ended plan.
