You will be counted as a no-show and your Self-Service Carolina account will be charged a $15 missed appointment fee. If you no show 2 or more Student Success Center appointments, your account will be locked, and you will need to speak with an SSC representative to schedule future appointments
USC students can have 1 visit per day per service. For example, you can attend a tutoring appointment and a success consultation for the same day. However, a student cannot schedule more than one tutoring appointment for the same course in the same day. Students can attend a Peer Tutoring appointment and Drop-in Tutoring for the same course in one day. If you have any questions, call us at 803-777-1000 or email us at SASSC@mailbox.sc.edu.
