We Promise: NC Tuitions
Your North Carolina General Assembly passed a bold promise to make college more affordable and increase opportunity across the state. Through the Fixed Tuition Program and the NC Promise Tuition Plan, our state leaders made an investment in your future and in our state because tomorrow’s jobs will demand a more educated workforce. Together, we will strengthen our communities and fuel our state’s economy.
Fixed Tuition means your tuition stays the same through your four years of college. NC Promise offers only $500 per semester tuition at three schools: Elizabeth City State University, University of North Carolina at Pembroke, and Western Carolina.
What is Residency Determination Service (RDS)?
Before you apply to college you need to complete it with a parent or guardian. Their important information is required, including drivers license number and social security number.
