Q. | When do students need to pay for semester courses/credits? Where is the payment sent? |
A. | Tuition payments must be made before the add/drop period ends for each semester, or the bursar will remove a student from classes for non-payment. If this happens, NCCU does have a reinstatement process which allows a student to pay his/her bill (including a late fee) after the add/drop deadline. However; additional approval is required and late registration is not guaranteed; therefore, we encourage students to pay for courses by the start of the session they plan to attend. Tuition payments should be made directly to the NCCU Student Accounting Office. |
Q. | Is there a limit on number of credit hours a student can take in the summer or in a particular summer session? |
A. | Students are limited to five credit hours per summer session for a total of ten credits for the entire summer. |
Q. | Does a visiting student need to apply to the School of Law? |
A. | Yes, students interested in visiting at NCCU Law must complete an application before they can be registered for classes. |
Q. | Do summer school courses usually fill up quickly? Is space in summer courses reserved for non-NCCU students and is it difficult for non-NCCU students to get in a summer course? |
A. | We cannot determine which classes will fill quickly and which will not. We do not reserve seats for non-NCCU students but we make every effort to assist visiting students with class registration. |
Q. | Can students at other law schools register for part-time enrollment at NCCU Law during the academic year (fall or spring)? |
A. | We allow non-NCCU Law students to enroll part-time in any semester. Part-time status for financial aid purposes is 4.5 credits. Per an inter-institutional agreement between UNC Law and NCCU Law, UNC students are allowed to take classes at NCCU during the fall and/or spring semesters. Under the inter-institutional agreement, students must be registered for at least six credit hours at their home institution. If students are registered as full-time students at their home institution, an inter-institutional registration at NCCU Law typically does not result in any additional charges for the semester unless there are special fees associated with a particular course (i.e., a technology fee for online courses). It is strongly advised that a student interested in visiting speak with the Student Accounting Office or Registrar’s office at their home institution. The inter-institutional agreement between UNC Law and NCCU Law does not cover summer school courses. |
