Kalamazoo Valley Community College (KVCC) is a public community college in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Its main campus is located in Texas Charter Township, with a few other locations located in Kalamazoo.

This is a strong option for cost-conscious students — at just $2,991/year after aid and a median debt of only $5,054 at graduation, it's one of the most affordable paths to a credential you'll find anywhere. The honest concern is that median earnings sit at $34,300 a decade out, which is modest and worth factoring in depending on your intended career path. Best suited for students pursuing transfer to a four-year school or a specific local career where the low debt load outweighs the earnings ceiling.
