In-State Requirements
GPA 3.5+
In fact, if you are from North Carolina or Georgia and have a grade point average of at least 3.5, you qualify for in-state tuition. We also offer a Legacy Discount: if at least one of your parents or grandparents graduated from SC State and you have a minimum 3.5 GPA, you will only have to pay the in-state tuition and fees.
