During the spring of each year, students from South Carolina’s independent colleges and universities gather at the Statehouse in Columbia to thank their legislators for funding the needs-based Tuition Grant Program and the State’s several merit-based scholarships. This event is preceded by the annual student letter writing campaign at which time recipients of state student aid write thank you letters to their House and Senate members.
The 2017 South Carolina Independent College and University Week is highlighted by the following events:
