Enrollment Fee

Enrollment fees for the community college student are $46 per unit.  Fees are subject to change.

Nonresident students are charged an additional fee per credit in addition to the enrollment fee.

If a third party is paying your fees (Department of Rehabilitation, employer, or Worker's Compensation), please contact the Admissions & Records department prior to the start of the semester to ensure all documents have been received and approved.

Non-Resident Tuition

Students who are non-residents of California or International Students, with or without F-1 visas, will be assessed $405 per unit ($365 per unit non-resident tuition and a $40 per unit capital outlay fee) in addition to the $46 per unit enrollment fee above. Active military personnel and their dependents are exempt for one year from this out-of-state tuition charge. Non-resident students who have been admitted to a class or classes without payment of the fee because of falsification of information submitted by or for them, shall be subject to dismissal from college.

Upper Division Fee

Upper division enrollment fees (for baccalaureate degree programs) are $84 per unit.  This is in addition to the enrollment fee.

Instructional Materials Fee

Students may be required to purchase instructional and other materials required for a credit or noncredit course. Such materials shall be of continuing value to a student outside of the classroom setting and shall not be solely or exclusively available from the District. These fees are not covered by the California College Promise Grant (CCPG) Fee Waiver (Title 5 Cal. Admin. Code Sec. 59400).

Any questions with respect to the interpretation of this regulation shall be in writing and addressed to the College’s Vice President of Academic Affairs.

Health Services Fee

Student Health Fee is $19 per semester, $16 for summer session. Students who rely on prayer for healing and can supply the college with documentation from their spiritual leader are exempt.  

Student Activity Fee

Student Activity Fee is $19 per semester, $13 for summer session. This fee is automatically charged and is due and payable at enrollment, but may be waived subsequently by the student. Fee includes Metro GoPass, a bus and rail pass within LA County. Fee purpose and waiver information is available online at the Admissions and Records and Office of Student Affairs websites.

Student Representation Fee

The Student Representation Fee (SRF) is a $2.00 per semester fee authorized by California Education Code Section 76060.5 to support student advocacy and representation at the local and state levels. One dollar of the fee supports the Student Senate for California Community Colleges (SSCCC), and one dollar supports the Associated Students of Cerritos College (ASCC). SRF funds are used to promote student participation in shared governance, leadership development, legislative advocacy, and representation on issues affecting community college students. Students may choose to opt out of the fee in accordance with college procedures.
