DUAL ENROLLMENT APPROVED COURSES
Tuition is covered by the Georgia Student Finance Commission (GSFC). Dual enrollment does not cover course related fees. There are a limited number of courses which are not covered by the GSFC. This means you would be responsible for paying tuition for those courses out of pocket. Students are also responsible for paying any course related fees, which includes the $25 lab fee for science courses that include a lab.
What about books? Dual Enrollment students will be provided course books for each course that the student is enrolled in per term at no cost to the student. Students taking courses on campus will have the required textbook(s) for his/her course(s) loaned to them from the South Georgia State College Bookstore. Should one of the courses not be covered by the GSFC, you would be responsible for purchasing the course textbook.
For more information, please contact us at dualenrollment@sgsc.edu.

SGSC is no longer a testing site for the SAT. Applicants may visit the College Board website at https://www.collegeboard.org/ to locate testing centers and to obtain information regarding available test dates and registration deadlines.
