- What is the weather policy?
Campus tours operate rain or shine, but may be impacted or cancelled due to weather conditions causing reduced operations or college closure.
- Is this tour wheelchair accessible?
Most of our buildings include elevators and ramp access.
- Can I bring a group of elementary or middle school students?
Due to capacity, we are unable to provide guided campus visits for elementary and middle school student groups. Please see information regarding our self-guided visits below.
- Self-Guided Visits
If your group is younger than high school age and/or the available dates do not fit your needs, coordinators are welcome to bring their groups for a self-guided campus visit. Most groups spend at least an hour on campus.
We politely ask groups planning a self-guided campus visit to please notify us via email at least 2 weeks in advance so we can share information about parking and other details as needed. Please email outreach@cpcc.edu with the intended date and time of your visit, anticipated number of students, grade level(s) of students, and transportation method.
