About This School

Spokane Falls Community College is a public institution located in Spokane, Washington with approximately 2,881 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $7,402 per year. The graduation rate is 30%, and the typical graduate earns $34,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

Spokane Falls Community College (SFCC) is a public community college in Spokane, Washington. Established in 1967, it is a part of the Community Colleges of Spokane. SFCC enrolls approximately 3,805 students and has an open admission policy with a 100% acceptance rate and no application fee.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $7,402/year after aid and only $7,645 in median debt at graduation, this is one of the most affordable paths to a credential in the region. The concern is the 30% graduation rate, which means most students who start don't finish — worth asking honestly whether you have the support system and plan to be in that minority. If you're pursuing a two-year transfer degree or a specific technical program and can stay focused, the low cost makes it worth serious consideration; if you're undecided and need heavy academic support, go in with eyes open.
