Clinton College President Lester McCorn announced in a YouTube video on the college website last month that tuition for the 2021-22 academic year will be free of charge for qualifying full-time students at the Rock Hill institution.
“It has been taxing for each and everyone of us. At Clinton College, we have done our best to keep the school moving forward and providing a quality education, even in a virtual environment,” McCorn the Associated Press reported.
According to the AP report, "The school had previously already made the commitment to slash fall tuition by 50% for its students, and offer every student a new tablet."
According to the college website, the AP reported, the cost of tuition for full-time students is $4,960 per semester; a full year is $9,920.
Students who live on campus for the year will still need to pay for room and board, while those who live off-campus will receive their online courses free of charge.
