Auditing Classes

The cost of tuition for auditing a class is the same as registering for credit.

Sussex County residents over 65 years old may audit a course tuition free (fees must be paid), pending available space.[3]

Chargeback

Sussex County Community College will provide a chargeback authorization, in accordance with the policy, at a New Jersey community college for students interested in pursuing a program not available at SCCC or any of its contracting institutions.

Senior Citizen Policy – Tuition Waiver Requirements

Sussex County residents 65 years and older are entitled to free tuition for eligible college level courses offered by SCCC. The one time application fee ($25) is required. All college fees are paid by the applicant.

Free tuition for senior citizens is offered with the following conditions: a) the class must be eligible for the senior citizen free tuition (some limited enrollment courses such as labs or field experience courses will not be eligible); b) paid enrollment warrants the course being conducted; c) sufficient space is available in the class; and d) registration for the course must occur only during the final two business days before the start of the semester. Applicants who opt to register earlier are not eligible for free tuition. Applicants may take the course for college credit or may choose to audit the course.

Applicants must register in person during the specified registration time period (the final two days before the start of the register), and must present proof of eligibility at the time of registration. Applicants may seek advising assistance from the Counseling and Advising Center, but must register at Office of the Registrar.

Unemployed Person – Tuition Waiver Requirements

Students are required to file a “Free Application for Federal Student Aid” (FAFSA).
Student must register with One Stop Career Center prior to registration.
Present waiver to SCCC financial aid no more than two days prior to start of classes.
All approved tuition waivers must be processed for space availability
through the appropriate registrar and business office at SCCC.
The student is responsible for paying all fees at time of registration.

** A student cannot register in advance (“save a seat”) and then submit the tuition waiver two days prior to the start of classes. The tuition waiver will not be applied retroactively.

For more information, please contact the Counseling and Advising Center.
