    Welcome to South Piedmont Community College (SPCC)! We proudly serve both Anson and Union Counties in North Carolina.  To ease your transition onto our campuses we have compiled some useful information in this course below. We invite you to navigate through this information and use the many embedded hyperlinks to further explore our college. 

    All new students complete New Student Orientation in hopes that when you need something here at SPCC you know where to find it.  You will always have access to this information.

    Students at SPCC are governed by the College Catalog as well as the Student Handbook. Students are encouraged to review the Student Handbook which is designed (in conjunction with the SPCC College Catalog) to give you the information you need to be successful. Please take a few minutes to look it over. You will be glad you did. We highly encourage students to specifically pay attention to Section 7 which covers Student Rights, Responsibilities and Procedures Policy, including information on Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
