Cabarrus College Offers Affordable, Close-to-Home Option for Local Students

Local high school students looking for a quality education and an affordable college — close to home — look no further than Cabarrus College of Health Sciences.

Cabarrus College, which has educated generations of caring healthcare professionals in our community, offers 10 degrees in 8 healthcare disciplines for first-year students, with generous scholarships that make the college affordable for everyone.

Student Alisha Samuels, who plans to use the college’s biomedical sciences degree as her springboard to becoming a surgeon, is just one example of a talented local student who has chosen Cabarrus College.  “Cabarrus College, being 15 minutes away from where we live, was the best choice for me,” she said.

“Cabarrus College is an outstanding option for local students who want an affordable, university-quality education without moving away from home,” said college President Dr. Cam Cruickshank. “We’re a great solution for parents too. We’re the least expensive private college in North Carolina, we offer a robust scholarship program, students can live at home, and more than 98% have jobs within 6 months of graduation, many of them working right here in our community.”

As a home-grown institution, Cabarrus College also strongly emphasizes access and affordability for local students.  The centerpiece of the college’s scholarship program is the Cabarrus Cares Scholarship, which covers up to 100% of tuition and general fees for first-time, full-time students from North Carolina who enroll within 1 year of high school graduation and demonstrate financial need. The college also offers a wide range of other scholarships including merit and legacy scholarships, an alumni association scholarship, and many scholarships for transfer students.

Still enrolling for fall 2024, Cabarrus College offers options for students who want to jump into a career quickly with a 1- or 2-year degree or those who want a 3- or 4-year college experience.  Degrees for first-year students include:

  • Biomedical Sciences (4-year Bachelor of Science)
  • Community Health and Wellness (4-year Bachelor of Science)
  • Life Sciences (2-year Associate of Science)
  • Medical Assistant (1-year diploma or 2-year Associate of Science)
  • Nursing (2-year Associate of Science or 4-year Bachelor of Science)
  • Occupational Therapy Assistant (2-year Associate of Science)
  • Respiratory Therapy (3-year Bachelor of Science)
  • Surgical Technology (2-year Associate of Science)
