It's Official: PCC Serving Its Largest Curriculum Enrollment on Record
WINTERVILLE—It’s official: Pitt Community College is now serving the largest curriculum enrollment in school history.
Joanne Ceres, PCC’s Director of Enrollment Management and Registrar, said this week approximately 8,600 students had signed up for fall classes, a total she said could climb even higher before the semester ends.
“There are still some openings in our late-start classes,” Ceres said. “Students can continue to register for these classes up until the day before they begin, so the total number of students can still rise.”
While the economy has factored into Pitt’s higher enrollment, PCC President G. Dennis Massey noted that many North Carolina community colleges have witnessed little growth. “People are realizing more and more that we offer quality instruction, are closer to home and cost effective,” he said.
Massey said PCC responded to the enrollment surge by hiring additional full-time and part-time instructors, which allows the school to offer students more course sections. He noted that the college had also grown physically, opening the Herman Simon Building in August with plans to break ground on three new facilities before the year is out.
