As we continue to deal with statewide COVID-19 restrictions, Central Piedmont is excited to welcome you for summer 2021. Our top priority is to maintain the academic integrity we have always prided ourselves on and to keep our students, faculty, and staff safe while doing so.

If you’re attending class on-campus, you must complete the required Health Acknowledgment Form, which is a self-declaration of your current state of health and commitment to following safety best practices while on campus. Just log in to MyCollege, select “Student Services,” and choose the “Health Acknowledgement and Pre-Check” form at the bottom of the page. Review these instructions if you need to access the form from an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, etc.).

Please also remember to wear a face covering, which is required while indoors on campus. Any changes to Central Piedmont’s COVID-19 guidelines, following Gov. Roy Cooper’s announcement on Friday to immediately lift social distancing and mask-wearing requirements across the state, will be announced in the coming days. Please stay tuned to your Central Piedmont email for updates.

Here are the top seven things you really need to know to be prepared for the new semester:

  • Check your email regularly.
    Your college email account is the official means of college email communication, so please check your account often to make sure you get all important updates.
  • Use your Central Piedmont Login to access
    My College
    . Access My College to find important information, such as: your class schedule; residency status; priority registration dates; enrollment verification; critical alert information; financial aid information.
  • Get your Student ID Card
    Students needing a new college ID card can visit any of the college’s ID stations, located on any campus, to have their new ID made. It’s a valuable resource, allowing you to check out materials from the library. For more information, or with any questions regarding IDs, please email idcard@cpcc.edu.
  • Read Central Piedmont Today.
    Central Piedmont Today is your student e-newsletter sent to your college email every Wednesday, or read it via the Central Piedmont app to find your schedule, campus maps, and check your Central Piedmont email. Central Piedmont Today covers a wide range of useful information from college news, registration, scholarships, and payment to important dates and events.
  • Follow us on social media!
    In a remote learning environment it’s incredibly important to remain connected. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, TwitterYouTube, LinkedIn to stay informed and connected to the Central Piedmont community.
  • Familiarize yourself with the college’s student support services.
    We are here to help! All support services including  – counseling, advising, financial aid assistance, career planning, basic needs services – are free and available to help you this semester. Visit the Current Students page, and navigate to each service’s Web page you need for their contact information. Don’t hesitate to call or email to let us know how we can help. Please leave a voicemail so we can return your call as soon as possible.
  • Parking decals not required
    In consideration of COVID-19, students are not required to display a summer 2021 parking decal for the duration of the term. Tickets will not be issued to students returning to campus for in-person instruction during this time. Students will not be able to park in reserved or designated areas. If you have any questions, please contact the Central Piedmont Information Center at 704.330.2722.
