About

Davidson County Community College, Thomasville, North Carolina, was originally established in 1958 as a technical school to assist in the transition from agriculture to industry. The school changed its name to its current and expanded its offerings in 1965. Since then the school has expanded its enrollment year after year, has opened a second campus in Mocksville and plans to open a third in Lexington with a recent land donation by a local family. DCCC also operates several satellite learning centers.

 

Academics

Davidson County Community College offers a large variety of programs for transfer to four year institutions or for immediate employment once completed. The programs can lead to certificate, diploma, or associate's degree.

 

Programs offered include:

 

Admissions and Financial Aid

DCCC has an open enrollment policy; thus students can submit an application and provide all necessary documentation (identification and transcripts) to be admitted. Students will have to take a placement exam and meet with a counselor to discuss program and class enrollment. Financial aid is available to eligible students. Eligibility is determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) which should be completed by the deadline noted on the website.
