Welcome to Educational Outreach.

Thanks for visiting our webpage.  Please take some time to browse the various links.   

In an effort to make education accessible to all people, the staff in the Office of Educational Outreach extends educational services across five Mississippi counties.  We provide college courses in Tunica, Coahoma, Quitman, Tallahatchie, and Bolivar Counties.  We work hard to make sure our students at all off-campus sites receive the same high quality college education as our day students by providing them with excellence in teaching.

Because of the great demand to meet the needs of our communities in a timely and cost efficient manner, we provide dual enrollment opportunities to high school students.  The dual enrollment program allows high school juniors and seniors who are in good academic standing to enroll in college courses and earn credit towards a degree while they are yet in high school.      

Students who are interested may see their high school counselor for documentation requirements or students may contact our office directly.

We also provide distance learning services for students who want to take online courses toward earning their degree.

While browsing our page, we hope you have been inspired to become a student at Coahoma Community College through one of our extended services.
