Do you have more room in your schedule? You can graduate earlier by adding a short session course or two this fall. There’s still time to register!
Short session courses are available in-person, hybrid and online. The next 8-week session starts Wednesday, Oct. 12, so you could add in an extra course for your program of study and be even closer to completing your degree.
Payment for classes you add to your fall schedule are due every Monday; you will be dropped on Tuesdays without payment in place for additional classes. Central Piedmont charges for a maximum of 16 credit hours per term, so if you add additional credit hours over 16 for the fall term (including winter session), your tuition for other classes could be free!
