I'm planning to apply to Clinton Community College and was wondering if there's an application fee? If so, how much is it and are there any waiver options available?
Yes, like most colleges, Clinton Community College does charge an application fee. The fee is $50. This fee helps to cover the cost of reviewing your application, but it is nonrefundable, so you won't get it back if you decide not to attend or if you aren't accepted.
As for your question about fee waivers, Clinton Community College does have a process to give waivers to students for whom the fee might pose a financial hardship. To apply for a waiver, you need to demonstrate that the fee would be a barrier to your application. This can include providing information about your family's income, or showing that you qualify for free or reduced-price lunch at school. There may be some additional documentation you need to provide, so it's best to directly contact the admissions office at Clinton Community College to get the most current information about this process.
Moreover, if you've taken the SAT or ACT and were granted a fee waiver for those tests due to financial hardship, you'll automatically qualify for college application fee waivers at many institutions, including potentially Clinton Community College, so that's another possible avenue for you.
Remember, each college and university may have a different application fee and waiver process so make sure you check individually for each school you plan on applying to. Good luck with your applications!
