Completing Your Degree at NACC
Have you started on the path to obtaining a college degree but
not been able to complete it? Now is the time. If you attended
Northeast Alabama Community College within the past 5 to 10
years, came close to an Associates Degree, and have not earned
any college degree since, we would like to talk to you. Access
to that degree has never been so available.
“We have had many former students come
back to us saying that they would be up for a job promotion if
only they had that 2-year degree, but they lacked one or more
courses when they dropped out several years ago,” said Dr. Joe
Burke, Vice President/Dean of Instruction at NACC. “Many people
would just like the personal satisfaction of knowing they had a
college degree. We would like to help those who are in
situations like these.”
People drop out of college for many
reasons -- burnout, work/schedule conflicts, marriage/family
responsibilities, illness and financial barriers, to name a few.
If your situation has changed and you lack a few courses
completing your degree, now may be the time to take that next
educational step. Northeast has developed many more educational
resources over the last 3 to 4 years to make it more accessible
and convenient to finish the degree. Free tutoring is available
full-time in almost every subject that Northeast offers. The
college now offers 50 to 65 online courses each semester, giving
flexibility so students can fit their course work into their
busy schedules.
For more information, contact the
Admissions Office at extension 222. Dean Niblett and her staff
can put you in touch with an advisor who will show you what you
need to do to complete Associate Degree requirements. For
details on completing graduation paperwork, call Angie Stewart
at ext. 240. Call the Financial Aid Office at ext. 418 or 227
for details on money to go to college. See also:
