SC offers free tuition for senior citizen 60 + - 843 REALTOR

By
Real Estate Agent with 843, REALTOR

South Carolina offers a free tuition program for senior citizens who are at least 60 years old and are legal residents of the state. This program allows seniors to take classes at any state college or university, tuition-free, on a space-available basis. There are a few eligibility requirements for the program, including:

  • You must be at least 60 years old.
  • You must be a legal resident of South Carolina.
  • You must meet the admission standards of the college or university you wish to attend.
  • You must not be employed by the college or university as a full-time employee.

There are a few fees that are not covered by the free tuition program, such as technology fees, lab fees, matriculation fees, and program fees. However, these fees are typically relatively small.

To apply for the free tuition program, you will need to contact the admissions office of the college or university you wish to attend. They will be able to provide you with an application and more information about the program.

The free tuition program for senior citizens is a great opportunity for older adults to continue their education and learn new things. It is also a great way to meet new people and stay active. If you are a senior citizen who is interested in learning more about the program, I encourage you to contact the admissions office of a state college or university in South Carolina.

Good morning, John... how cool is that! I had no idea (and I easily do 40% of my sales in SC). Something I will remember to tell mature clients.

Good Morning John. Have a good friend who lives in South Carolina who is using the program to expand his thinking. Enjoy your day.

I have a friend who just finished her master's in this program.  She did not have time while she was working so when she retired, she did it for herself.  Just another perk if you live in SC.
