Degrees
Haywood Community College offers full-time curricular programs leading to an associate degree (4-5 semesters), a diploma (2-4 semesters), or certificate (1-3 semesters). Courses offered are on the semester system, with each semester consisting of 16 weeks or 80 class days, or the equivalent. The summer session operates on an abbreviated schedule.
Alliance Programs
Alliance Programs are articulated three-year transfer programs consisting of three years of a four year baccalaureate degree program. An alliance program normally requires completion of an associate degree and meeting the general education core requirement for transfer to the University of North Carolina under the Comprehensive Articulation Agreement. Upon completion of three years of coursework at the College, qualifying students can transfer as seniors for a final year of coursework in a university baccalaureate degree program. For more information, see Alliance Programs in this section of the catalog.
