Students who will be taking classes at Fort Jackson must enter through Gate 2 (Forest Drive). You may be directed to the Visitor’s Center at the gate to get a pass. Make sure you have your driver's license, vehicle registration and proof of insurance as they may be asked for. Also, you will be asked to complete a National Crime Information Center (NCIC) background check.  Someone from the USC Fort Jackson office will collect it from you and submit it on your behalf during the first week of classes. Please make every effort to come early (before 5:00 if possible) to allow enough time to get your pass and not be late to class. If you have any questions, please contact the USC Fort Jackson Office at 803-782-8810.
