Scotland County Campus
To meet the growing demand for programs in Scotland County, Richmond Community College opened the Honeycutt Center in 2010 in downtown Laurinburg.
The multi-purpose facility houses a variety of curriculum and Workforce and Economic Development classes. In 2019 Richmond Community College added the Morgan Center and Covington Street School to provide more educational opportunities for residents of Scotland County. Students can complete an Associate in Arts and Associate in Science degree through a combination of classes offered on the Scotland County campus and online classes.
