Policies
Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi offers continuing education programs as a means of extending educational opportunities to our community. We strive to uphold the highest levels of excellence and ensure fair, equitable treatment of all individuals.We expect our students to be responsible and follow a planned schedule in order to stay on target for completing the training within the specified timeframe. Contact your Student Advisor if you think you may not be on target to complete the course on time. We would be happy to work with you and provide a timeline schedule to keep you on target.
Students are reached out regularly by their Student Advisors with timelines and other forms of encouragement to facilitate timely completion.

Students are marked "complete" when they have completed the course requirements, when all components of the course are confirmed successfully completed and they have fulfilled any financial obligations (i.e. student loan). Completion verification may take approximately 48 hours from the time the student completes their program. Certificates of completion are awarded to students upon successful completion of all course requirements.
For Career Training programs - successful completion is accomplished by maintaining an average grade of 70% or higher. Upon validation the address is correct, a certificate of completion will be mailed within 30 days. We recommend students verify their current mailing address as soon as possible.
For Enhanced Certificate programs - a certificate will be granted for each of the individual programs within the bundle.
