Genesee Community College Freezes Tuition and Fees for 2025-2026 Academic Year
Commitment to Affordability Sets GCC Apart in the Region
Batavia, NY (06/30/2025) — Genesee Community College is proud to announce that tuition and fees will remain flat for the 2025-2026 academic year, reinforcing the College's deep commitment to providing high-quality, affordable education to students and families across the region. The decision, approved by the Genesee County Legislature, ensures that students can continue pursuing their educational and career goals without the burden of increased costs.
"Access to education should never be out of reach because of cost," said Dr. Craig Lamb, president of Genesee Community College. "By holding tuition and fees steady, we're giving our students and their families peace of mind, and a clear path forward. This is about empowering individuals, strengthening communities and changing lives."
The tuition freeze is especially significant in today's economic climate, where many families are struggling to balance rising expenses. With no increase in tuition or fees for the upcoming academic year, GCC remains one of the most cost-effective college options in Western New York, making it a smart choice for recent high school graduates, adult learners and career-changers alike.
In addition to its affordable pricing, GCC offers a wide range of scholarships, financial aid resources, transfer agreements with four-year institutions and innovative academic programs designed to meet the demands of today's workforce.
With the 2025-2026 budget now approved, GCC is actively enrolling students for the fall semester. Prospective students are encouraged to visit www.genesee.edu/apply to learn more about applying, financial aid and the many ways GCC helps students succeed.
