About This School

Pueblo Community College is a public institution located in Pueblo, Colorado with approximately 3,619 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $12,045 per year. The graduation rate is 31%, and the typical graduate earns $31,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

Pueblo Community College (PCC) is a public community college in Pueblo, Colorado. PCC operates branch campuses in Cañon City and Mancos, as well as an academic site in Durango.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the low median debt of $5,750 and an affordable net price of $11,063/year make this a financially reasonable option, especially for students pursuing local workforce programs or a two-year credential. However, the 37% graduation rate signals that most students who start here don't finish, which is worth taking seriously — ask the college directly what support exists to help you stay on track. If you have a clear, short-term goal like a certificate or associate degree in a trade or health field, this can make sense; if you're hoping for a four-year transfer path, go in with a concrete plan and an advisor lined up from day one.
