Gainful Employment
New Federal regulations require institutions to report certain information about Title IV-eligible educational programs that lead to gainful employment in a recognized occupation (also known as GE Programs). While all of the educational programs at Truckee Meadows Community College are designed to lead to either employment or transfer, the Department of Education requires that we provide disclosure information on the specific programs listed below. We hope this information is helpful to you as you make your career and educational choices.
You may be interested in the cost of attendance at TMCC. You will find this under Financial Aid Cost of Attendance. Here you will find the costs associated with full or part-time enrollment at TMCC. To complete any of the GE Programs on-time, you would need to attend full-time.
