Tuition and Fees
Suffolk County Community College’s operating costs are funded by tuition and fees paid by students, state
aid provided by New York State and funding appropriated by Suffolk County.
The College charges full-time tuition to students who take twelve or more credits per semester, and
part-time tuition to students who take fewer than twelve credits. Students who take less than twelve credits
are charged on a per credit basis. The College has two tuition rates: resident tuition and non-resident tuition,
which is double the resident tuition rate. Residents of Suffolk County pay resident tuition. Non-New York state
residents pay non-resident tuition. New York State residents who live in other counties will qualify for resident
tuition if they provide a Certificate of Residence; if they do not, they will be charged non-resident tuition. To
qualify for resident tuition, a student must have legal residency of one year in New York and six months in
Suffolk County. The legal residency of unmarried students under age 21 is that of their parents. The county of
residence of newly discharged student veterans who are residents of New York State is the county in which
they lived when they entered military service. Members of the armed forces of the United States on active
duty who are stationed in New York State, their spouses and their dependents pay tuition as Suffolk County
residents. Non-citizen Suffolk County permanent residents with permanent Resident Cards (“green cards”)
are charged resident tuition.
New York state residents who live in other counties may be eligible for resident tuition. To qualify, they
must submit a Certificate of Residence from their home county fiscal officer prior to registration. Applications
are available at the College’s business office and also on the College’s student portal
(www.sunysuffolk.edu/ MySCCC). Students must file their applications with their home county’s chief fiscal officer no more than two
months before the start date of the next semester. A Certificate of Residence is valid for no more than one
year, after which a new one must be submitted. Non-Suffolk residents who do not comply with the Certificate
of Residence requirement and non-Suffolk residents in the United States on a student visa who are ineligible
for the Certificate of Residence are charged non-resident tuition. Tuition is refundable according to the
College’s refund schedule.
