Transfer Courses for Visiting Students

CCCC offers a variety of classes for transfer and visiting students—those who wish to take one or more classes without pursuing a degree at CCCC. Visiting students include former CCCC students, graduating high school seniors looking to get a head start on college coursework, and students currently enrolled at other colleges or universities.

We have a wide range of classes available during our summer terms, many of which are fully online. If you have questions about the application process or the availability and delivery of our courses, please contact our Education Navigators.

FAQs

Every college or university has a resource to help you understand the course equivalencies between community colleges and universities. For example, here are the pages for NC StateUNCGUNC-Chapel HillECU, and UNCW.

It is recommended that you confirm with your college or university exactly how these courses would transfer back to your institution and how they would meet the requirements of your program or major.
