Possession of a current broker (including provisional broker) license in North Carolina is a prerequisite for enrollment in the postlicensing courses. Prospective postlicensing course students must present evidence of meeting this prerequisite at the time of enrollment.
The Academys policy states that classes canceled due to inclement weather or other emergencies will be rescheduled for the following Saturday. Should a course be canceled, the students tuition will be fully refunded.
Coastal Carolina Real Estate Academy charges a $50 cancellation fee to any enrollee who withdraws less than 3 business days before the first class begins. If the student reschedules for the next course offered, the $50 will be credited to the student as partial payment for the course. There are no refunds once the first class begins.

To be enrolled in a course, you must complete the Registration Form and your tuition fee must be paid. When you submit a form online, you will receive confirmation email and will need to download the Student Enrollment Contract that sets forth the basic rights and obligations of both the student and the school which has been approved by the North Carolina Real Estate Commission. The Student Enrollment Contract can be found here and must be executed before entering the first class session.
Late registration is accepted only as space permits. NC real estate law requires that students attend 80% of all scheduled classes. Therefore no students will be accepted once 20% of the sessions have taken place.
Students must attend 80% of all scheduled classes. An overall course grade of 80 or higher with a minimum score of 75 on the final exam entitles the student to receive a course completion certificate. The prelicensing course completion certificate is necessary to apply for the real estate license examination. Should a student score less than 75 on the final and/or have an overall course grade of less than 80, there will be one re-take exam offered. The re-take exam must be completed within two weeks after the first exam. If the new results satisfy the course requirements, a certificate of completion will be issued. Students who are absent for the re-take exam will forfeit taking a re-take exam.
