Baltimore City Community College (BCCC) is a public community college in Baltimore, Maryland. It is the only community college in the city and the only state-sponsored community college in the state. It is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE). It was founded in 1947 and has about 5,000 students enrolled in one of its campuses.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: at roughly $9,769 per year after aid, this is one of the more affordable paths to a college credential in Maryland, making it a genuinely practical choice for students watching their budget. However, median earnings of $32,500 a decade after enrollment are modest, so if you're pursuing a program here as a stepping stone to a four-year transfer, have a clear plan — the payoff depends heavily on what you do next, not just the degree itself.
