Tri-County To Continue Zero-Cost Tuition for Spring 2023
Wednesday, November 2, 2022 at 9:28AM Observer Reports
Tri-County Technical College is extending zero-cost tuition through the spring 2023 semester.
To be eligible, the individual must be a South Carolina resident enrolled in an eligible program of study. Eligible programs are those that lead to a certificate, diploma, degree, or industry-recognized credential. The individual must also be employed, complete a financial literacy module/course, or complete 100 hours of community service.
For continuing students, the same eligibility requirements apply. However, due to a change in SCWINS funding allocations, students cannot receive more than $5,000 in an academic year. This means the funding the student receives for spring semester may be less than what they received in the fall. The student must also have a 2.0 GPA.
Spring classes start January 17, 2023. Students are encouraged to submit their applications now. The deadline to apply is January 9, 2023. To learn more and to apply, visit tctc.edu/zerocost or call 864-646-1550.
Zero-cost tuition is made possible by a variety of funding sources such as the Higher Education Emergency Relief (HEERF) Fund, SCWINS, the Governor’s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) Fund, Workforce Scholarships for the Future, and the Tri-County Technical College Foundation.
