FIXED-FOR-FOUR TUITION PLAN
The Board of Regents’ “Fixed-for-Four” tuition plan continues Fall Semester 2007! Under this plan incoming freshmen receive a guaranteed tuition rate that is good for 12 consecutive semesters, while students who first enrolled in Fall 2006, Spring 2007 or Summer 2007 will see no change to their tuition rate. Those students enrolled in the University System of Georgia prior to Fall 2006 pay a rate that is effective for a one year period.
The new rates are automatically calculated on your schedule bill and are listed below, but if you have questions please ask one of our cashiers in the Payment Center (located in the Student Life Center on the Macon campus) or at the business office of the Warner Robins Center. Or you can call the Business Office at 471-2705. We will be happy to assist you with your questions!
FIXED-FOR-FOUR TUITION PLAN APPEAL
Macon State College students may appeal their fixed-for-four tuition rate classification by submitting a written letter of appeal to the Vice President for Fiscal Affairs. When considering appeals, the fixed-for-four tuition policy of the Board of Regents will be strictly adhered to except in circumstances of military deployment. Appeals which include documented military deployment may be approved for additional periods at the guaranteed rate. The Vice President for Fiscal Affairs is the final authority for reviewing the appeal. The student will be notified of the result of the appeal by the Business Office.
