Costs for Early College
Thanks to South Carolina Lottery funds, the college is able to waive a substantial portion of Early College student tuition, which helps keep costs significantly lower for our students.
Tuition Costs
Tuition for Early College students is based on the student’s high school enrollment.
- Students of Greenville County High Schools
- Greenville County School District has an agreement with Greenville Tech to sponsor all their high school students. This covers the cost of tuition and books (e-books and physical books which are delivered to each high school).
- Students of Greer Middle College, Brashier Middle College, Greenville Technical College Charter High School, GREEN Charter and Legacy Early College
- These schools provide special tuition options for their students. Please work with your school representative to learn more.
- Students of home schools, private schools, online academies, and out-of-county schools
The South Carolina Technical College system is comprised of 16 colleges strategically positioned across the state in order to serve residents of each county. When a student chooses to attend a technical college in their county of residence, in-county rates apply (PLEASE NOTE: the $0 Tuition Scholarship is not available to Early College students). Students who choose to enroll in a technical college outside of their county of residence are subject to out-of-county rates.
