About This School

Fort Peck Community College is a public institution located in Poplar, Montana with approximately 282 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $400 per year. Typical graduates earn $21,800 within 10 years of enrollment.

Fort Peck Community College (FPCC) is a public tribal land-grant community college in Poplar, Montana. The college is located on the Fort Peck Assiniboine & Sioux Reservation in the northeast corner of Montana, which encompasses over two million acres. The college also has a satellite campus in Wolf Point.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $2,449/year after aid, this is one of the most affordable college options you'll find anywhere, making it genuinely accessible for students on tight budgets. However, median earnings of $21,800 a decade after enrollment are below the national average and worth taking seriously — you'll want a clear plan for how your specific program translates into a career that improves on that figure. Worth considering if you're a local student seeking affordable credentials, career training, or a stepping stone to a four-year school, but go in with eyes open about post-graduation earning potential.
