Beaufort County Community College is a public community college in Washington, North Carolina.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable path to a credential — at just $5,105 per year after aid and a median debt of only $8,125, the financial risk here is genuinely low. That said, the median earnings of $28,200 a decade after enrollment are modest, so this makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year transfer or a specific local career in trades, healthcare, or public service rather than a standalone credential for higher-wage work.
