The University of North Carolina at Greensboro welcomes your candidacy for admission. Please read the following general instructions, as well as any sections which pertain to you, before completing the application.
Checklist for All Applicants
- After reading the instructions, please fill out this online application as thoroughly as possible. Your failure to provide complete, accurate, and truthful information on this application will be grounds to deny or withdraw your admission, or dismiss you after enrollment.
- A $45 non-refundable application fee payable by credit/debit card (Visa or MasterCard) or by personal check or money order.
- Request that official SAT or ACT scores, including the writing component, be sent to UNCG directly from the testing agency. Test scores are required of all freshman applicants, as well as transfer applicants with fewer than 30 transferable semester hours.

- Providing a U.S. Social Security Number (SSN) is voluntary. However, if you intend to apply for or receive any financial aid, including outside or institutional merit-based scholarship support, you must provide your SSN (if you have one) so the University can process your application for aid and/or scholarship disbursement. Providing your SSN will also facilitate matching test scores and transcripts with your UNCG applicant records. Your SSN will only be used in accordance with state and federal law; it will not be used as your student identification number.
- Admission to the University does not guarantee selection into any specific major or area of study. Transfer students should contact the school or department of interest to learn of any additional entrance requirements specific to the major. For more information regarding additional requirements for specific programs, please reference “Additional College, School, and Departmental Requirements” in the Admissions Information section in our online Undergraduate Bulletin at www.uncg.edu/reg/catalog or contact the appropriate school or department directly.

High School Transcripts
Some North Carolina public high schools have the capability to electronically send official high school transcripts when you apply online. We encourage you to visit your school counselor to verify coursework and grades prior to requesting an electronic transcript.
To send an electronic transcript, you must:
- Complete this online application.
- Make sure you have entered the following information in your profile and/or application:
- First and last name
- Date of birth
- NCWise ID (Your NCWise ID is your public high school student
identifier number. Providing the NCWise ID is voluntary and if provided
will give you the opportunity to request your high school transcript
electronically)
- Gender
- Current high school
- E-mail address
- Be currently enrolled at a participating public high school in North Carolina (one that has converted from the SIMS system to NCWISE to manage student data). If you are not sure about your school, check with your school counselor or office staff.
If these conditions were met when you submitted your application, you will then be presented with the option of sending your high school transcript electronically to that school.
