IMPORTANT RESIDENCY INFORMATION
Due to a new regulation instituted by the North Carolina legislature, all new TCCC applicants, and any former student who has
not maintained concurrent enrollment at the College, must complete the North Carolina Residency Determination Service (RDS)
interview and submit their active Residency Certification Number (RCN) on their admissions application before they can submit
their admissions application and enroll for classes.
Depending on your status, you may or may not need to complete the RDS interview, according to the following:
• All TCCC applicants regardless of residency status must complete the RDS interview and submit their active Residency
Certification Number (RCN) on their admissions application before they can submit their admissions application.
• All CURRENT TCCC students who have completed an initial classification, reclassification or appeal must submit their active
Residency Certification Number (RCN) to Admissions by sending an email to admissions@tricountycc.edu with a subject of RCN
Submission, your RCN, and your TCCC student ID number.

Mandatory
New Student
Orientation
New Student Orientation
is designed to inform
incoming students about
the TCCC campus, available
resources, opportunities
offered, and the importance
of identifying their personal
and educational goals. The
ultimate goal of the New
Student Orientation (NSO)
is to provide students with
the resources they’ll need
to maximize their potential
and successfully manage
their college experience and
encourage further success.
New Student Orientation
is a mandatory
enrollment step and
students need to attend the
orientation in its entirety.
Students who miss some
or all of the orientation
will need to reschedule
for a new orientation.
Flags will be placed on all
incoming students that do
not attend the New Student
Orientation. They will not
be permitted to register for
additional classes until the
New Student Orientation has
been attended.
Students may register by
clicking on the “Add Me to
the List Portal” at the footer
of the TCCC webpage and
then select the link for New
Student Orientation.
The date for which you
register is your date. The
College will not send
confirmations, so please
write down your date/time/
place of the session you
choose.
