Tuition and Payment

Below are tuition and fee rates by semester in the current academic year. For payment deadlines, click here and choose appropriate semester.

Important News:

  • Trident Technical College will allow an outstanding balance of $200 or less to register for classes or remain registered in classes. Any past due balances over $200 ($200.01 and up) will result in a registration hold to prevent you from registering for classes. Any balances that are not paid in full within 60 days of the end of the semester will be outsourced to a collections agency.
  • Trident Technical College semester balances are due at the end of the semester. TTC will begin immediate collection efforts at the end of the semester that may include placing your account with the South Carolina Department of Revenue Debt Set Off program and/or an outside collection agency.
  • When students register for classes at Trident Technical College, they are responsible for tuition and fees for all courses including withdrawn classes. Students will receive a grade of "W" instead of "F;" however, all charges will remain on your tuition bill as your responsibility to pay.
  • You will not receive a paper bill for tuition and fees via U.S. mail. Visit the  TTC student portal to check your Student Self Service account under Student Finance to view and print any tuition statements. Payments can be made via credit/debit card payment online on the student portal.
