About This School

Brunswick Community College is a public institution located in Bolivia, North Carolina with approximately 1,211 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $9,009 per year. Typical graduates earn $26,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

Brunswick Community College (BCC) is a public community college in Bolivia, North Carolina. The service area of Brunswick Community College includes Brunswick and New Hanover counties with the main campus located in Bolivia. BCC contains two other campuses, one in Leland and one in Southport.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at $8,785/year after aid, this is one of the more affordable paths to a credential, which makes sense for students focused on local workforce training or transferring to a four-year school nearby. However, median earnings of $26,500 a decade after enrollment are notably low, so if you're expecting this degree alone to drive significant income growth, temper those expectations. Worth considering if you're a Brunswick or New Hanover County resident looking for a low-cost start, a specific vocational program, or a stepping stone to a larger institution — just go in with a clear plan for what comes next.
