What is a contract course?

Contract courses are courses offered under an agreement between the University of South Carolina and a school district or an outside state agency, or between a USC academic unit and a USC-funded project. These courses allow qualified students to enroll based on the needs of the agency or funded project.  Contract courses may also be part of degree programs offered under contract with an outside state agency or academic unit.

For detailed information about the procedures involved and the documentation for contract courses, please visit carolinacred.org.
