Out-of-state students selected for Honors College departmental scholarships are entitled to reduced tuition, which is not the same as in-state tuition.
Does anyone know what the difference is between reduced tuition and in-state tuition. Checked the Bursar’s page but it wasn’t immediately clear. Thanks in advance!

I cannot believe they told me it would be today if they aren’t going to follow through…wth.
I need to look at this on a pc. Trying to read it on my phone and much of the detail doesn’t show onscreen.

I looked up our older student’s time and it wasn’t until 730pm. Maybe there is hope!

Thank you for this info!
They are out, our son got rejected unfortunately.
So sorry.
I find it kinda funny how I got a desicion while still being deferred, obviously got rejected but curious if they would have sent acceptances to deferred people? I doubt it??
It’s fine! But ty
DD got into the Honor’s College and with it a direct admit into the upper level nursing program. We had begun to think she had not gotten in and wondering if our decision to go TO was a good one or not. Lots of celebrating tonight!

Looked at it again, this time on a pc and it looks exactly the same with no cost difference. If I am missing something, let me know. She already has instate tuition so trying to see if reduced is any lower.
Does anyone know what perks come with the Honors College? Thx!
My son didn’t get in to HC. So disappointed. Is USC worth it without that? OOS with scholarships.
Priority registration, access to the Honors Dorm freshman year (very nice), priority access to 650 Lincoln or Horseshoe dorm rooms sophomore year. Smaller class sizes - Honors classes cover all kinds of categories, some gen ed, some in lots of different majors and some unique offerings. Search classes here: Courses - My Honors College | University of South Carolina
Lots of honors events, annual gala - check out the honors Instagram for examples. Required to do either an internship, study abroad, service learning or research. They have help with the application process for those things, and some merit award possibilities for those as well. Must do thesis/capstone project senior year. Free printing.

Check out Capstone Scholars. Those haven’t been announced yet. Still a possibility to be invited.
Any additional merit outside of in-state tuition hasn’t been announced yet. I think those are mid-March or later for departmental awards.
I thought capstone scholars were already decided
