This is a reminder that starting August 31, 2026, College of The Albemarle (COA) will implement new hours for administrative offices during the Fall and Spring semesters.

Administrative offices will be open to the public:
Monday–Thursday: 8 a.m.–5 p.m.
Friday: 8 a.m.–12 p.m.

COA is not closing at noon on Fridays. Curriculum and continuing education classes will continue as scheduled, and College locations will remain open as needed for instruction. This schedule change applies to all 4 of our campus locations in Currituck, Edenton, Elizabeth City, and Dare.

During certain registration, enrollment and testing periods, some administrative offices may offer extended Friday hours to support students. This change applies to administrative office hours only and does not affect instructional schedules.

Thank you for your flexibility as we implement this new schedule and continue to support our students and College community.
