- Am I still able to come to campus for tutoring services, to use the computer lab and other services?

For students who wish to return home for spring break, you are welcome to do so at any time. CCC residential halls are open for any student that needs or wants to remain on campus at this time.

CCC student accounts personnel can answer specific questions on refund amounts. - If I test positive for the coronavirus or believe I have been exposed, who should I tell at CCC?
