Special Apparel and Equipment
Students enrolled in the automotive technician, basic law enforcement training, cosmetology, dental assisting, dental hygiene, industrial plant maintenance, machining, medical assisting, motorcycle mechanics, associate degree nursing, practical nursing, tool and die making, and veterinary medical technology curriculums will be required to purchase special items of apparel and/or equipment, such as uniforms, lab jackets, tools, gloves, etc. Most of these items may be purchased in the college Bookstore.
Student Insurance
Certain risks are inherent in any work involving regular contact with mechanical and electrical equipment. While stringent precautions will be taken to ensure safety, it is felt to be in the best interest of all students to provide some measure of insurance protection. All students in healthcare and personal service programs must have malpractice insurance.
The college will maintain a group policy providing insurance protection, and all students will be covered. The cost of accident insurance to the student is included in the student fee for curriculum students. International students are encouraged to secure more complete coverage.
Malpractice Insurance
A $10.00 malpractice insurance fee will be charged each semester for curriculum and continuing education students enrolled in applicable programs (maximum fee of $30.00 per academic year). For questions regarding the malpractice insurance policy, please contact the Business Office.
Breakage Fee
Breakage, damage, or loss due to student negligence, carelessness, or other mishandling of school supplies, materials, or equipment is the responsibility of the student. The student will be required to pay for such items and may be subject to disciplinary action.
Security Fee
Central Carolina Community College's Board of Trustees approved a $50 CAPS (Campus Access, Parking and Security) fee for all curriculum students to be charged each term. This fee supports the construction and maintenance of campus parking lots and roads. In addition, it supports campus security officers and alerts to ensure a safe campus.
Student Activity Fee
Students registering for Curriculum classes will pay $35 during the Fall and Spring semesters, and $5.00 for the Summer term.
The student fee provides the revenue necessary for the Student Government Association to provide services and activities for the student body. Typically, the SGA provides the following benefits from the student activity fee: SGA calendar and handbook, parking stickers, Activity Days, dances, socials, guest speakers, intramural and intercollegiate athletics, as well as other events the Student Government Association might deem appropriate.
Computer Use and Technology Fee
The computer use and technology fee is used to support the procurement, operations, and repair of computer and other instructional technology including supplies and materials that support technology. Curriculum students will be charged $48 per semester.
Distance Education Fee
A $15 distance education fee will be charged for each course taken online via distance education.
Ceremony Fee
A $5.00 ceremony fee will be charged to curriculum students each semester. This fee helps cover the cost of graduation and other ceremonies (degrees, diplomas, certificates, caps, gowns, honorariums, flowers, etc.)
Policy on Solicitation and Fund Raising
