Free Summer or Free Fall ideas? - creationstory - 05-13-2022

Looking for any program for free for the summer or fall.  Any help?

Anything with the Cares Act? 

I already did South Texas, but I don't believe they are offering a free semester this summer or fall. 

I am looking at,

No Unionplus please.

Thank you so much everyone

South Carolina Technical & Community colleges are free this coming year, but you have to be a SC resident from what I've heard. But I could be wrong, this one says "no international students" but nothing about out-of-state.

I'm not going to check every college in the system, but Greenville Technical College is including DACA and international students in its offer: https://www.gvltec.edu/why_GTC/zero-tuition.htm

Schools in the SC Technical College System: https://www.sctechsystem.com/colleges.html

Edit: "Transient Visiting Student registration" is not covered by Greenville Technical College.

I took a look at all the schools on the list

a few of them are free for everyone.  Some are just for SC residents.

I assume so, haven't checked, not sure which school you're referring to either. Having said that, it may be easier, faster for you to just click the schools in question and their "accreditation" links to get the details. If you don't get an answer, instead of waiting for a reply, you can report back what you find.

Yes, they are all SC CC's (or Tech schools, same thing). State schools.

I checked most -  all had links on the list. The tech ones (all in the same system) and the others (Community Colleges) all had .edu domains. So I presume all are RA. I'm sure there's no pre-2001, unaccredited "grandfather" .edu sites here. Community Colleges are RA by definition. (They can lose it, of course but that's pretty rare.)

I think You can assume for now that they all are  - and double-check the site on any that interest you, before you enrol.

Oops! Sorry. Just realized dfrecore beat me to it.

Rule 1 - dfrecore is always right.
Rule 2 - if in doubt, refer to rule 1  Smile

Mostly. There are community colleges that are NA with the Council on Occupational Education; originally an operating unit of the regional accreditor SACS, the COA became an independent national accreditor in 1995.

Haha!  Now, if you could just tell my family this!!

Also, I only happen to know because we now live in SC.  So I know the CC system here.
