Tuition Waivers

Posted on February 9, 2023

For credit courses, tuition waivers and proof of eligibility must be submitted within 30 days of the start of the semester. For most waivers, fees (including but not limited to college services fees and special class/program fees) are not reduced. Some waivers are subject to approval by the Registrar based on seating availability. There are restrictions when using the Senior Waiver. The value of a tuition waiver or combination of tuition waivers cannot exceed the total cost of tuition. See below to determine waiver eligibility, required documentation and charges eligible for reduction.

Waivers for non-credit workshops are approved on a case-by-case basis by Workforce Development or Community Engagement.

For more information about tuition waivers, contact the Student Financial Services Office at sfs@gcc.mass.edu or visit the Department of Education’s Office of Student Financial Assistance website.
