Cost
Costs vary depending on the area of continuing education as mandated by the State of North Carolina. There are no refunds on self-supporting classes. Course fees are listed after each program description. North Carolina residents 65 years of age or older are exempted from registration fees for classes in Continuing Ed except for self-supporting classes and technology fees.

Eligibility
Admission is open to adults who are at least 18 years-old and who are not enrolled in public school. Sixteen to 18 year-olds may enroll in some courses, when space is available and pending proper permission. Students under 18 years of age may enroll in Summer classes designed specifically for the younger student.

Only individuals enrolled may attend class. Continuing Education Units (CEUs) of credit are available.

Course Repeat Policy
Students who take an Occupational Extension course (the same course title) more than twice within a five-year period are required to pay full instructional cost of the course. This provision is waived if the course is required by standards governing the certification or licensing program in which the student is enrolled.

Continuing Education Credit
For occupational extension classes, Continuing Education Units (C.E.U.’s) are awarded. One C.E.U may be given for each 10 contact hours of participation in class.
Refund Policy
Registration fee refunds are granted only under the following circumstances:
» For classes that are scheduled to meet four times or less, a 75 percent refund shall be made upon the request of the student, if the student officially withdraws from the class(es) prior to or on the first day of class (es).
» For classes that are scheduled to meet five or more times, a 75 percent shall be made upon the request of the student if the student officially withdraws from the class(es) prior to or on the official 10 percent point of the class(es). Refunds are not possible after the 10 percent point.
