Notes:

[1]Program length is expressed in semesters. There are two 17-week semesters each year, one in the Fall and one in the Spring. Length of time is calculated as the number of semesters it would take a student to complete the program unit requirements if they enrolled at the minimum full-time level of 12 units per semester. Students may be able to accelerate their progress by enrolling in more units per semester or enrolling in Summer session, if courses are available. Time to complete the program may be longer than the normal program length if a student requires remedial course work.

[2] Program cost is estimated based upon current unit cost (Fall 2011) of $36.00 per unit plus any additional Course Material Fees for required courses. Additional required fees are also included.

[3]Textbook cost is based upon retail cost of new textbooks purchased through the Mendocino College bookstore. A student's actual cost may vary based upon the availability of used textbooks, rental textbooks or electronic text books.
