Gainful Employment

Federal regulations published in October 2010 required institutions to report certain information about students who enrolled in Title IV eligible educational programs that lead to gainful employment in a recognized field. While all of our programs at Coastal Carolina Community College are designed to lead to either employment or college transfer, the Department of Education requires that we provide disclosure information on the specific programs listed below.
