Saturday College

North Central Texas College’s Saturday College is designed to fit the busy lifestyle of students who want to complete a college degree. The Saturday College reflects NCTC’s commitment to the education of students of diverse ages and backgrounds by allowing students to earn credits toward four-degree options by attending classes only one day a week. Non-credit continuing education courses are also available on Saturdays.

Courses that require class attendance will be offered outside traditional teaching hours in blocks of time on Saturday. The courses will be delivered in such a way as to concentrate the learning experience using NCTC’s facilities and staff to offer the opportunity to complete a degree in the traditional classroom setting combined with online courses.

Saturday College classes fulfill Texas’ general education requirements. Many courses will transfer with full credit between and among all public state-supported institutions of higher education within the state. Special articulation agreements between NCTC and the major universities in this region assure students that their coursework will provide the step-up to a higher degree if they wish. Students are advised to meet with their academic advisors prior to enrolling in the Saturday College, so they can be assured that the courses they take meet their educational goals.

Saturday College classes are available at NCTC’s Corinth campus. The same objectives and requirements that apply to the courses regularly taught on campus during the week also apply to Saturday College classes. Although the delivery methods and course lengths may vary, the content does not. Full-time faculty members and adjunct faculty who teach during the week also teach Saturday College courses.
