Shawnee Community College has expanded its in-district tuition rates of $125 per credit hour for the summer session to include online fee waivers.

“This decision was an easy one to make for our institution. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused considerable hardships to many students," Dr. Kathleen Curphy, speaking on behalf of the college interim president, told KFVS. "We felt that with many institutions currently offering only online options for students, ensuring we keep our cost low, was the right thing to do.”

Shawnee offered the opportunity to Cape, Scott, Mississippi and New Madrid counties in Missouri and Ballard, Livington and McCracken counties in Kentucky. The expansion allows for those students to qualify for the lower tuition rate for the summer session.

Students can enroll in online classes for the summer session, and enrollment is also open for the fall.
