Cooperating Raleigh Colleges

Never heard of CRC? Here's what we do!

Our key elements are:

Cross-registration: Full-time students at one member institution can take courses at another member institution (fall/spring semesters) to access courses not offered at their home campus.

Resource sharing: The member campuses share library and other educational resources.

Professional & staff development: CRC organizes workshops, webinars, and conferences for faculty, staff, and library professionals across member schools.

Community & economic impact: The consortium also helps connect the colleges with the broader Raleigh community, and supports shared initiatives, enhancing the educational and economic value in the region

From cherished campus traditions to celebrating another year of growth and achievement, the end of the academic year at Meredith College is a special time for reflection and celebration. These longstanding traditions help create the strong sense of community and sisterhood that makes the Meredith experience so memorable. 💚🎓
