Future Student

Let’s Talk About Your Next Move.

4Cs is for students who want to move forward without making a decision that costs them years of debt or uncertainty.

You might know exactly what you want to do.
You might still be figuring it out.

Either way, you deserve a college that gives you options and treats you like a person, not a number.

At 4Cs, you can start your degree, prepare to transfer, or train for a career in a way that fits your life.

What Can You Study at 4Cs?

We offer more than 90 degree and certificate programs across healthcare, business, STEM, liberal arts, and creative fields.

Some programs are designed to help you enter the workforce quickly. Others are built for transfer to four year colleges and universities across Massachusetts and beyond.

If you want a college experience where you are seen and supported, you’ll find that here.

Let’s Be Honest About Cost

For many students, money is the biggest concern.

If you live in Massachusetts and do not already have a Bachelor’s degree, you may qualify for free community college. That means tuition and fees are fully covered.

Even if you do not qualify for free college, most 4Cs students receive some type of financial assistance through grants or scholarships.

Before you commit, you will understand what your real cost looks like. Our team walks you though it step-by-step so you can made an informed decision.

Worried about cost? You are not alone.

If you live in Massachusetts, do not already have a Bachelor’s degree, and complete financial aid, you could qualify for free community college. That means tuition and fees covered.

Yes. Actually covered.

If money is the thing holding you back, let’s figure that out first.
