*Tuition/fees subject to change.

Some classes have additional course fees.

Course Fees

In addition to tuition costs some Trident Technical College courses have associated course fees as well. See the links below for more information on which courses each semester have accompanying course fees

Digital Course Materials Fees

Digital course materials are included for select courses at TTC. To find out if your course is using digital course materials please refer to the Digital Course Materials document (pdf), which includes fee information.

These courses include all materials needed for the class (including access codes) on day one. You will not need to purchase any additional materials for the course. The costs of these materials are included in your tuition and fees. You can choose to not use the digital course materials. Visit the Opt In/Opt Out page for more information. For answers to frequently asked questions, visit the Digital Course Material FAQ page.

Please note that any tuition waivers granted do not waive digital course materials fees. Students are responsible for these fees unless they opt out.

Workforce Training (formerly Continuing Education)

Workforce Training (formerly Continuing Education) programs are professional development and personal interest courses that do not award academic credit but are eligible for continuing education units (CEUs). You do not have to apply and be admitted to the college to take these noncredit courses. Simply register and pay online or by phone. Scholarship funds may be available for certain Workforce Training courses. Learn More>
