Phillips Community College of the University of Arkansas (PCC) is a public community college in Helena-West Helena, Arkansas. The college enrolls 2,350 students (64% female, 36% male) and has been accredited by The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools the since 1970. As of 2009, the college has three campuses: the Helena-West Helena Campus, the DeWitt Campus, and the Stuttgart Campus.
The numbers tell a reasonably encouraging story here — with an average net price of just $5,420/year and median debt at graduation of only $3,500, this is one of the more affordable paths to a credential you'll find anywhere. Worth considering if you're looking to minimize financial risk while completing foundational coursework or earning a two-year degree close to home. The main concern is the post-graduation earnings picture: a median income of $26,200 a decade out suggests limited earning potential from this credential alone, so have a clear plan for transferring to a four-year school or pairing this degree with specific workforce training.
