Roane State Community College

Fees and Payments

All Students will be required to be enrolled in both sections of the Southwest Field Trip, MSC 261 and SSC 221, which are college credit courses.

• The fee for each section will be $550.00 for a total of $1100.00 for the trip.

Each student is responsible for contacting OneStop and/or their Success Coach to see if their financial aid will cover the course tuition.

If your financial aid does not, you will be responsible for paying the tuition.

Tuition is the base charge for any credit hour course. In addition to tuition, this course requires an additional fee due to traveling expenses that financial aid will not cover.

• The remaining $500.00 for each section (for a total of $1000.00) will be due by February 12, 2024.

• If a student is unable to pay the total fee by February 12, 2024 they will be purged from the dropped from the course, the student will not receive any credit for the two courses, and they will forfeit any fees or tuition already paid. 

• Please note that if you are unable to attend the trip and have paid the fees and tuition, we will be unable to refund your fee after the refund deadlines due to set travel expenses that cannot be adjusted.
