Community College of Denver is a public institution in Denver, Colorado that serves the metro area with open-access, general studies programming. The college enrolls 7,715 students and emphasizes liberal arts and sciences education designed for students seeking flexible, affordable pathways into higher education or transfer to four-year programs.

In-state tuition is $4,058 annually, with out-of-state tuition at $16,658. These costs represent the total cost of attendance for students; no additional room and board charges are included as the college serves a primarily commuter population from the Denver area.

As a mixed associate and baccalaureate institution, CCD functions as both a credential-granting and transfer pathway college. This structure works well for students balancing work and education, those exploring academic interests before committing to a four-year program, or those seeking career-focused credentials. Prospective students should ask about transfer agreements with four-year institutions, support services for working adults, and the range of certificate and degree options available.
