The College at Southeastern: Prison Programs

Historical Note:
The College at Southeastern has partnered with the North Carolina Department of Public Safety to offer a high quality, fully accredited liberal arts education within a Judeo-Christian worldview to the incarcerated population of North Carolina.

Nash County Extension Center

The North Carolina Field Minister Program (NCFMP) offers the Bachelor of Arts in Pastoral Ministry with a secondary emphasis on counseling. This degree is the same degree offered at the main campus in Wake Forest, NC. The College at Southeastern began offering this degree in August 2017 at the newly established Nash County Extension Center (NCEC).

Wake County Extension Center

The mission of the WCEC program at NCCIW is to equip and educate incarcerated women to lead and serve in whatever they do, wherever they are. We want students to contribute to their families and society in a positive way whether they are working post-release, receiving more education, or continuing to serve their sentence at NCCIW.
