Fees

In-state tuition rates are charges based on residency status as determined by the Alabama Community College Board of Trustees. Residency status is determined upon admission.

Out-of-state tuition is two times the in-state tuition per credit hour. Wallace Community College allows in-state tuition for certain neighboring Florida and Georgia residents. Refer to Qualifications for In-State Tuition below for specific information.

Students qualified to pay in-state tuition on the Wallace Campus in Dothan are Alabama residents; Georgia residents from Baker, Calhoun, Clay, Decatur, Early, Miller, Quitman, Randolph, and Seminole Counties; and Florida residents from Bay, Calhoun, Holmes, Jackson, Walton, and Washington Counties. Students qualified to pay in-state tuition on the Sparks Campus in Eufaula are Alabama residents and Georgia residents from Baker, Chattahoochee, Calhoun, Clay, Dougherty, Early, Marion, Miller, Muscogee, Quitman, Randolph, Stewart, Sumter, Terrell, and Webster Counties. Military personnel assigned to an active military installation in Alabama and their immediate family members also qualify for in-state tuition. Other qualifying categories may be determined by the Admissions and Records Office.

Effective fall semester 2004, the Alabama State Board of Education has mandated that a $1/credit hour Bond Surety Fee be collected at all two-year colleges across the state. The purpose of the fee is to establish a self-insured reserve fund at the Alabama Community College System. The reserve is intended to assist member institutions of the Alabama Community College System in obtaining insurance coverage for long-term financing of construction and renovation projects.

A facility renewal fee of $9 per credit hour per term is charged to provide funds for the improvement of facilities.

A fee of $8 per credit hour per term is charged to help defray the cost of financing new construction.

A fee of $9 per credit hour per term is charged for acquisition and maintenance of technology and technological applications for students.

A fee of $10 per credit hour per term is required by the Alabama Community College System to cover certain program and facility costs.

Refunds for credit card payments will only be issued to the original credit card used for payment.  An administrative fee of 5% of tuition and other institutional charges is assessed for each withdrawal within the period beginning the first day of class and ending at the end of the third week of class. The total amount charged for this service will not exceed $100.

A fee of $25 is charged to students who register on or after the first day of classes as stated in the College calendar.

A fee of $30 is charged for each worthless check issued to the College. Students issuing worthless checks may be subject to class withdrawal for non-payment of tuition and fees. A returned check may be subject to collection through the Worthless Check Unit of the District Attorney’s Office.

Students who participate in the graduation ceremony must order caps and gowns.  Please see the Graduation Information webpage for more information.

The graduation fee is $21.50 for diploma and cover for graduates.

Fees vary according to the nature and length of the course.

A fee of $50 is charged for challenge examinations listed in various program information sections throughout this catalog (but not to challenge placement in English, mathematics, or reading).

A fee is charged for validation examinations listed in various program information sections throughout the catalog.

Health program students enrolled in clinical and/or laboratory courses are charged a fee of $21 per term for professional liability insurance. This insurance coverage is a requirement of each allied health program.

Students enrolled in health programs are charged a fee of $32 for substance abuse screening. This screening is required on initial program admission and/or readmission following a break in enrollment and every fall term.
