### Description

Sampson Community College is a public two-year institution in Clinton, North Carolina, serving a town-based region with accessible, transfer-oriented liberal arts and sciences programming. The college enrolls approximately 1,680 students and functions as a pathway to four-year degrees for students in its service area.

In-state tuition is $2,736 annually, with out-of-state tuition at $9,648.
