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.
Please note: The college's late fee and financial disenrollments do not apply to Early College students.
Tuition Costs
Tuition for Early College students is based on the student’s high school enrollment.
