Students are given a $25.00 printing balance at the beginning of each semester (this balance will not roll over semester to semester) for use in the computer labs and copy machines throughout campus. This is the equivalent of 500 single-sided black & white print pages.
As you print or make copies, the cost is deducted from this balance. If you need more money added to your printing account, you can add money to your Carolina Card through the Self Service Carolina Website. You can make deposits 24/7 with a minimum of $10.00 through the CarolinaCard Options in my.sc.edu. Your deposit will load to your CarolinaCard within 5 minutes.
