NorthWest Arkansas Community College reported zero 2024 Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents in the score categories (0.00 per 1,000). Zero in those categories is not a safety proof, other Clery tables and unreported harm can still exist, and zero-report campuses are left unranked against each other.

Cost context

Where NorthWest Arkansas Community College sits on price and outcomes

See Arkansas's cost ranking

At $7,196, NorthWest Arkansas Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 12% among 69 Arkansas colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $14,060.

reported income-bracket spread

Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $5,722, while those above $110,000 record $11,719 - roughly 2.0 times as much. A published average of $7,196 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.

Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $35,242 - about 4.9 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 29% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.

Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
