Senior Citizens
Tuition
shall be waived for up to
six credit hours per academic
semester for senior citizens
age 65 or older who are
qualified as legal resident
of North Carolina. Applicable
Fees will be charged. If
an eligible senior citizen
enrolls in more than six
credit hours, he/she shall

Payment
of Tuition and Fees
Tuition and fees are due and
payable at the time of registration.
To complete the registration
process, tuition and fees
must be paid during the registration
period. The College does not
provide for installment payments
of fees, tuition, books, etc.
Methods of Payment:
Pay online with Mastercard, Visa
or American Express using mySCC
access
OR
Cash or Personal Check
Students receiving third-party
sponsor funding for their tuition
(WIA, BIA, Vocational Rehabilitation,
etc.) must provide a sponsor authorization
letter for billing from the sponsor
before the registration period
ends. If this authorization letter
is not provided by this time,
the student forfeits their sponsorship
funding, and the sponsor will
not be billed on their behalf.
It is the responsibility of the
student to verify that the sponsor
authorization letter has been
received by the business office.
Students unable to pay tuition
and fees in full at registration
can make a one-time request to
the Business Services Office for
a 10 calendar day deferment. This
request must be made on registration
day and is a one-time only privilege.
Even If a deferment is granted,
students will be required to pay
25% of the tuition at the time
of the request.
Students must clear any unpaid
balance due on account from any
previous semester in order to
register for a new semester or
receive an official transcript.

Policy
Refund
Policy
If a student withdraws
from class(es) prior to
the 10% point of the class(es),
SCC will calculate the
student's refund amount
using the state refund
policy as stated below. |
| 1. |
A refund
shall not be made except
under the following circumstances: |
| |
(A) |
A 100% refund shall
be made if the student
officially withdraws prior
to the first day of class(es)
of the academic semester
or term as noted in the
college calendar. Also,
a student is eligible
for a 100% refund if the
class in which the student
is officially registered
fails to “make”
due to insufficient enrollment. |
| |
(B) |
A 75% refund shall be
made if the student officially
withdraws from the class(es)
prior to or on the official
10% point of the semester. |
| |
(C) |
For classes beginning
at times other than the
first week (seven calendar
days) of the semester
a 100% refund shall be
made if the student officially
withdraws from the class
prior to the first class
meeting. A 75% refund
shall be made if the student
officially withdraws from
the class prior to or
on the 10 percent point
of the class. |
| |
(D) |
A 100% refund shall
be made if the student
officially withdraws from
a contact hour class prior
to the first day of class
of the academic semester
or term or if the college
cancels the class. A 75%
refund shall be made if
the student officially
withdraws from a contact-hour
class on or before the
tenth calendar day of
the class. |
| 2. |
To comply
with applicable federal
regulations regarding
refunds, federal regulations
supersede the state refund
regulations stated in
this Rule. |
| 3. |
Where a
student, having paid the
required tuition for a
semester or term, dies
during the semester (prior
to or on the last day
of examinations of the
college the student was
attending), all tuition
and fees for that semester
or term may be refunded
to the estate of the deceased. |
State Refund Policy
Southwestern Community College
does not have an approved
Accrediting Agency Refund
Policy.
Non-Title IV Recipients
The refund policy for students
not receiving Title IV
financial aid is the same
as the State Refund Policy
statement above.
