Cooperating Raleigh Colleges

Cooperating Raleigh Colleges (CRC) is a consortium of six colleges and universities in Raleigh and Wake County that allows students to study and experience campus life at different institutions of higher learning without having to transfer. The consortium includes Wake Tech, Meredith College, North Carolina State University, Saint Augustine's University, Shaw University and William Peace University. 

Each institution offers unique courses and programs that can enhance the college experience for any student. This includes technical, career, military science, performing arts, foreign languages and many other courses. Full-time students at these schools can elect to take courses at any other CRC institution – it's easy, and students simply pay tuition and fees to their home institution.

Registration procedures at each institution may vary.

For more information on participating in Cooperating Raleigh Colleges at Wake Tech, email [email protected] or call 919-866-5118.
