Greater Greensboro Consortium

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Greater Greensboro Consortium is an educational consortium of colleges and universities in Guilford County, North Carolina. The Consortium includes 8 schools; 2 public universities, 2 private universities, 2 private co-educational colleges, a private women's college, and a Community College. The Consortium agreement allows students to cross register for courses at any of the other institutions, up to 50% of their credit hours in a given semester. The agreement also gives full access to the libraries at the other schools. Students will have to pay for the per-credit hour cost and books, but not any additional tuition costs. Also, they will have to abide by the grading standards and honor codes of the school they've cross-enrolled at while they are in those classes [1]
