Dual Credit Tuition Waiver & Estimated Cost

College courses have three types of charges: tuition, fees, and books or materials.

High School Student Tuition Waiver

TCC offers high school tuition waivers for 30 college credit hours.

Student tuition waivers are automatically applied to high school student accounts by financial aid three weeks after the semester drop date. An application is not required.

Seniors: TCC will waive tuition via Oklahoma’s senior tuition waiver program. By Oklahoma statute, each Oklahoma high school senior who meets the eligibility requirements for concurrent enrollment shall be entitled to receive a tuition waiver equivalent to the amount of resident tuition for a maximum of 18 eligible credit hours in their senior year beginning June 1 following the eleventh grade. The tuition waiver may be used in the summer, fall, or spring. Students must follow the policy regulations including graduation from high school in the spring of the 12th grade.

Juniors: In addition to the state of Oklahoma’s senior tuition waiver, TCC provides a tuition waiver to each Oklahoma high school junior who meets the admission and enrollment eligibility requirements for high school students. Juniors will be awarded a tuition waiver equivalent to the amount of resident tuition for a maximum of 12 eligible credit hours in their junior year. We recommend that juniors use six hours in the fall and six in the spring semester. Check with your high school counselor for scheduling considerations. The student must follow the policy regulations including being on track to graduate from high school in the spring of their senior year.

Tuition Waiver Policy

Tuition waivers are awarded for all enrollments unless students drop a class within the college drop period. All hours waived will be counted in the total tuition waiver limits including any grade entered on the transcript: W, AW, I, WN, or A – F grades. You are responsible for all college business, including enrollment and payment. TCC Financial Aid awards Attend College Early (ACE) tuition waivers after TCC enrollment services have confirmed eligibility and processed your enrollment. The waivers are disbursed after the college drop period for your course, and your bursar balance should reflect the disbursement by week eight of the long semester. Full Terms and Conditions are available in your Financial Aid and Scholarships Dashboard.

Account Balance and Payment

To pay course fees and any tuition amount over the waiver limit, visit your MyTCC Account to access the student bursar account balance and pay by check or credit card. Additionally, you may pay by cash, check, or credit card at the Bursar Office located on our four campuses. Be sure to bring your photo ID. For additional questions, contact the Bursar at studentaccounts@tulsacc.edu.

Fees

All courses have state-mandated fees as well as various other fees depending on the type of course. For instance, lab science classes may have associated lab fees. See a complete listing of course fees.

Your high school may have a college fees assistance program. Ask your counselor to find out.
