College Course Registration

A representative from USC Salkehatchie will be at Dorchester Academy on Wednesday, January 5th at 9:00 a.m. to register for the English 102 and Computer Science 102 classes.

English 102 will use the same Handbook but you will need to purchase the text book for $60.00.
The Computer Science book is $65.00.
Please bring your money ( cash or check...no credit cards) for your textbooks to registration.

A week following registration the course tuition bill of $309.00 for each course will be mailed to you at your home address . The amount includes the internal USC Salkehatchie Scholarship. Without the scholarship the cost would be over $600.00 per course. The bill will list the courses you are taking and the total tuition due. Your payment may be mailed along with the bill back to USC Salkehatchie. Payment plans may be set up with the college business office.
