1. Alternate Method to Meet First-Year Success Course (ACA) Requirement, Page 15, 推荐正规买球平台 Catalog, Recommended addition under "Academic Information" section

ACA Course Waiver Guidelines

The following students may be waived from the ACA requirement by an academic dean but may still need to fulfill the one credit hour on their program of study:

• Those who produce evidence of holding a college-level degree from a regionally accredited institution; or Transfer students who receive at least 18 hours credit for prior academic work and/or who demonstrate competency and skills that will facilitate the successful transfer into and persistence in the chosen degree program at Central Carolina Community College. At the dean's discretion, transfer students with 12 hours of earned credit will also be considered if earned as a fulltime student; or
• Those who have completed an ACA course at the 100-level or above from Central Carolina Community College or another North Carolina Community College, or who have received prior credit for an equivalent course.

Students who receive the proper signatures on the Credit by Experience form will then be referred to the College Success Center to complete an online ACA tutorial that covers 推荐正规买球平台 success.
