University of North Carolina Wilmington Top Questions

My academic adviser and the atmosphere.

The university is a very academically focused place and you will be sure to succeed and have the qualities needed to obtain almost any job you may want in your field as long as you work hard and stay motivated and determined. The faculty is very helpful, as well as your fellow students. People are always offering advice or guidance to anyone who needs it.

I like the sense of belonging here. It's a smaller school in the UNC school system, and you form many close friendships and the campus is easy to navigate and is even somewhat high-school like in the set-up. There are lots of things to do and be involved in such as Greek Life, intramurals, outdoor programs, and many more.

The best thing about this school is that everyone is generally helpful and nice to everyone. No matter what age, race, or group you are affilliated with, you will find that most people are willing to be your friends. Perhaps it is the relaxed atmosphere of being near the beach, but it works.

The area it is in and the atmosphere it puts you in. This area is a very nice campus and its expanding but it's still not huge. The school is about ten minutes from Wrightsville beach and about 50 minutes from Myrtle Beach, SC, a huge vacation spot. It's always nice weather here also, hardly any complaining about that. It's an awesome place to go to school at because it offers a little bit of everything.

Diversity, you can be a 20 year old freshman or a 40 year old one and you are both accepted at uncw. Also the teachers are fantastic and highly devoted to helping you succed in whatever you choose to do.
