About This School

Walla Walla Community College is a public institution located in Walla Walla, Washington with approximately 2,418 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $9,406 per year. The graduation rate is 38%, and the typical graduate earns $38,800 within 10 years of enrollment.

Walla Walla Community College (WWCC), often referred to as just "CC" locally, is a multi-campus community college in southeastern Washington state.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $8,343/year after aid and only $9,500 in median debt at graduation, this is one of the more affordable community college options in Washington. However, the 47% graduation rate means fewer than half of students who start actually finish, so it's worth having an honest conversation about what support systems you'll need to stay on track. If you complete a degree and transfer or enter the workforce, the $38,800 median earnings are reasonable for a two-year school, but go in with a clear plan.
