Our Commitment to You and our Community
4Cs is a vibrant, diverse community that reflects the regions we serve and welcomes all. At our foundation, we believe in celebrating the diversity of our students, faculty, and staff and championing the values of equity, inclusion, and belonging for every member of our community.
From the classroom – be it virtual or on our campus – to life outside of College, it is our mission to make sure that the powerful futures that start at 4Cs reflect all backgrounds.
Cape Cod Community College’s student, faculty, and staff, like the communities we serve on the Cape and Islands and across the region, are extremely diverse and growing every year.

Free Community College – Thanks to the MassEducate and MassReconnect program, community college in Massachusetts can be free for residents with no bachelor's degree. This includes tuition, fees, and stipends for books and learning supplies.
Flexible Classes That Work Around You – When we say that we have flexible classrooms to work around your personal and work life, we 100% mean it. 4Cs leads the way in unique class options for you to choose from including 7-week Quick Term semesters that start in September, October, January and March, our one-of-a-kind “HyFlex” classes that allow you to choose on a day-to-day basis if you attend in-person or online, and a constantly growing number of online classes and fully online programs.
Dedicated Support Services – We have dedicated programs on campus to help you succeed, especially if going to college is a new experience for you and your family.
