On October 20, 2023, the State Board of Community Colleges voted to amend State Board Code, 2A SBCCC 300.6 – North Carolina Proprietary School Fee Schedule. This amendment will change the due date for annual license renewal applications from March 15th to March 1st each year. This change allows fifteen (15) additional days for the Office of Proprietary Schools to review license renewal applications given the significant increase in applications for proprietary schools’ licenses.

The amendment will be effective November 1, 2023. The new rule will be published in the North Carolina Community College System’s website. For your convenience, a copy of the code in its final form is attached to this memorandum.
