About This School

Genesee Community College is a public institution located in Batavia, New York with approximately 1,966 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $7,989 per year. Typical graduates earn $33,800 within 10 years of enrollment.

Genesee Community College (GCC) is a public community college with its main campus in Batavia, New York. It has campus centers in Medina, Warsaw, Dansville, and Arcade, New York. The college serves areas not only inside of Genesee County but also in Livingston County, Orleans County, and Wyoming County, or the GLOW region. This two-year college also offers housing facilities to out-of-area students, although the school is attended primarily by commuters. Additionally, GCC offers some degree and certificate programs online.

At just $7,989/year net price and a median debt of only $6,549 at graduation, this is one of the more affordable paths to an associate degree in western New York, making it a smart starting point for students planning to transfer to a four-year school. Worth considering if you're looking to save money on general education credits close to home, especially with campus centers spread across the GLOW region. That said, median earnings of $33,800 a decade out suggest limited long-term payoff if you stop at a two-year degree, so have a clear plan for what comes next.
