About

Wilson Community College, a member of the North Carolina Community College System, is dedicated to providing world-class training for the citizens of Wilson County. Students can train for a new career in one of Wilson Community College's technical programs or earn a two-year college transfer degree to continue their education at a four-year institution. Wilson Community College also offers a wide variety of adult education and continuing education classes for lifelong learning.
Wilson Community College's campus is located on Herring Avenue in Wilson, North Carolina. The College also offers a large number of online classes through an expanding distance education program.
Wilson Community College was chartered in 1958 and is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
The College adheres to the Open Door Policy of the North Carolina Community College System. Any person, whether a high school graduate, or non-graduate who is eighteen years old or older, and who is able to profit from further formal education, will be served by the institution. The Open Door Policy does not mean that there are no restrictions on admission to specified curricula. Students are assisted in selecting programs which serve their needs and objectives in life, consistent with their background, aptitudes, and interests. The restrictions on admission are flexible enough to allow students opportunities to improve their educational status. Preparatory studies are provided for students who lack skills necessary for admission to their chosen programs.
