At RCC, Your Future is Our Focus, now and always. We know that every student is unique and has different preferences for online or in-person learning. When you enroll at RCC, you can register for the courses that work best for YOU.
If you prefer the flexibility of completing course assignments at your own pace, enroll in online courses. Do you learn best in a physical classroom, surrounded by like-minded learners? Enroll in on-campus courses. Maybe you prefer a little of both? Then create a schedule with online, in-person, and hybrid classes. Our advisors will help you create a schedule based on your preferred learning style!
Spring Access courses begin on Monday, January 31, 2022. We are pleased to offer four different learning models during the spring semester:
 |
 |
 |
- On-campus = A traditional class, with instruction provided in a physical classroom, at set meeting times.
-
Online = A fully online course without set meeting times
Online courses are completed fully online, without in-person meetings. You can complete the work at a pace that best suits your schedule, but you must submit assignments and exams by set deadlines.
-
Hybrid = A course with one scheduled face-to-face meeting time per week and an online
component
Hybrid courses are completed on-campus with specific meeting days and times per week, with the remainder of the assignments completed online.
-
Virtual = A fully online course with scheduled meeting times
Virtual courses are completed online but have set meeting times. You are required to log in and participate in course meetings via web-based communication (Microsoft Teams or Zoom) at the scheduled days/times.
