UNCW will consider several aspects of your academic history in making our admissions decision. To be considered for admission to UNCW, first-year applicants must meet minimum course requirements established by the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina System. In addition to submitting the online application, students must submit their official high school transcript. A letter of recommendation is optional. UNCW has two concrete deadlines for first-year admission: Early Action – November 1 and Regular Decision – February 1. The application fee is $80 and is non-refundable. Visit apply.uncw.edu to apply.
