Moraine Valley Community College is offering most of its fall classes online while still providing quality learning at an affordable cost.

Fall classes are either online or hybrid (a combination of online and face-to-face instruction). Hybrid classes are reserved for career and technical education (CTE) courses and select labs that require a limited amount of time on campus to learn and practice hands-on skills. Many CTE classes began Aug. 10.

The college offers noncredit programs and courses as well.

With an annual average cost of $4,446, attending classes at Moraine Valley can save students up to nearly $30,000 per year compared to private colleges or universities.
