Tuition and Fees
Fall Semester 2023, Spring Semester 2024, Summer Semester 2024
The tuition a student is assessed each semester varies according to (1) the number of credit hours for which he or she is registered, (2) the student’s residency determination based on the application for admission, (3) and the student’s program of study (major). Tuition is based on the number of credit hours registered. Students are charged up to 15 credits per semester but may register up to the college’s maximum number of credits per term.
Full time enrollment for federal student aid (Pell Grant, etc.) and insurance verification purposes is 12 or more credit hours.
Tuition is assessed at one of three levels per semester
- Standard tuition cost is $100 per credit hour for in-state, Georgia residents. Maximum per term: $1,500.
- Out-of-state students pay tuition twice the amount charged for Georgia residents.
- International students pay tuition four times the amount charged for Georgia residents.
