Mandatory Orientation Fee

All new students are assessed a one-time mandatory orientation fee in their first semester of enrollment, in addition to tuition charges and other fees. The mandatory orientation fee is separate from the orientation session fee and covers special services and programs for new students, including fall welcome activities, Discover ’SC, extended orientation events and university publications. This fee is included in the estimated cost of attendance that the Financial Aid Office uses to determine financial aid eligibility. It is not refundable. Please do not include this fee with your orientation session fee payment.

Fees are:

	Undergraduate/Domestic:	$150
	Undergraduate/International:	$150
	Graduate/Domestic:	$30
	Graduate/International:	$150

• Marshall School of Business – Graduate (domestic only)
• Health Sciences Campus (domestic only)
• Gould School of Law (domestic and international)
