EdNC Explains: How does the state fund community colleges?
Community colleges in North Carolina get most of their funding from the state’s taxpayers. But the amount each college receives can vastly differ. How does the General Assembly decide who gets what?
State funding doesn’t cover everything for the colleges. County funding, grants, and other donations also help pay the bills, especially to get new programs off the ground.
