Residency
Tuition is based upon the student's legal residency as defined in The Code of Laws of South Carolina, guidelines determined by the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education and the Midlands Technical College Commission.
If an applicant or student wishes to petition to change their residency status, they may complete and submit to the Admissions Office an “Application for Reclassification of Residency”. Status changes are not retroactive for previous terms.

To submit the application:

- Submit the application and all requested documentation.
- The completed application has to be submitted at least 8 days before the fee payment deadline in order for a change of status to occur on or before Fee Payment ends. Residency statuses can be changed up to the last day for a 25% Refund. There are no retroactive status changes for previous terms.
