From: Jonnell Carpenter, NCCCS General Counsel
To: Members of the State Board of Community Colleges, Chairs of the Community College Boards of Trustees, Community College Presidents, Chief Academic Officers, Chief Admissions Officers, Basic Skills Directors, Business Officers, Continuing Education Officers, Customized Training Directors, Chief Financial Officers, Distance Learning, Financial Aid Officers, Personnel Officers, Student Development Administrators, Public Information Officers, Registrars, & Other Interested Parties

On January 16, 2026, the State Board of Community Colleges (SBCC) voted to amend the State Board Code, 2A SBCCC 300.6 – North Carolina Proprietary School Fee Schedule. The amendment increases the late license renewal fee for Proprietary Schools from $500 to $1,000. This increase would potentially discourage schools from submitting late applications.

The amendment will be effective February 1, 2026. At that time, the amended rule will be published on the North Carolina Community College System’s website, State Board Code – NCCCS (nccommunitycolleges.edu).  For your convenience, a copy of the rule in its final form is attached to this memorandum.

To view the memo in its entirety, see CC26-004 – Amendment of 2A SBCCC 300.6 – North Carolina Proprietary School Fee Schedule
