H Councill Trenholm State Community College

H Councill Trenholm State Community College is a public two-year institution located in Montgomery, Alabama, with an enrollment of approximately 1,674 students.

In-state tuition is $5,190 per year, and out-of-state tuition is $9,060 per year. The average annual net price — the total estimated cost of attendance, including tuition, fees, and living expenses, after grants and scholarships are applied — is $8,325. This figure can exceed published tuition because it accounts for living costs, and it reflects an average across students who receive aid; individual costs will vary. A notable 63.7% of students receive Pell Grants, a federal aid program for lower-income students, which suggests the institution serves a significant share of students with financial need. According to available data, none of the student population takes out federal student loans, meaning students here appear to cover their costs without federal borrowing.

Trenholm State offers programs in a range of career-focused fields. Relevant options include dental hygiene, electrical work, and trades related to energy and industry, such as solar photovoltaic installation, wind turbine technology, energy auditing, and industrial machinery mechanics.

Median earnings ten years after enrollment are $32,183. This figure is measured across all students who received federal financial aid and enrolled at the college — including those who did not complete a credential — so it reflects a broad population rather than graduates alone. Actual earnings for students who complete a specific program may differ.
