Au Pairs at GBCC

Au pairs can earn required hours in several ways at Great Bay Community College, either as a non-matriculated student or as a community member.

Options include:

  1. Enroll in the 1-credit course FYE101 (First Year Seminar). This makes the au pair an official GBCC student who can then take advantage of all activities and services at the college. At the current tuition rate, the daytime sections cost $540, and the evening or online sections cost $240.00.
  2. Enroll in a 3-credit evening (after 5:00 PM) or an online course of your choosing for a cost of $720. There may be added expenses for books and materials depending upon which course is selected. Accuplacer testing may be needed as a prerequisite for certain English and math classes.
