Benedict College announced that the College’s Board of Trustees recently voted to freeze tuition for the 2013-2014 academic year.

According to the release, this is the first time the College has enacted a tuition freeze in more than two decades.

The freeze will halt an increase in room and board and auxiliary school fees, and will apply to in-state and out-of-state, new and returning students, including students in the continuing education program.

The 47 McDonald’s restaurants in the greater Columbia metropolitan area will serve students taking the South Carolina Palmetto Assessment of State Standards (PASS) Test with a free breakfast on May 7, 2013.  

The free breakfast will include an Egg McMuffin and Apple Slices, with a choice of one percent low fat white Milk or a small Orange Juice.  

To redeem the free breakfast, students must present the attached coupon.

The coupon is good from 6 to 7 a.m. in store only.
