Although UNCW has requirements for all students to take Basic Studies courses that you may not want to take, embrace every single class you are enrolled in. I didn't want to take a phys ed class in the beginning, but it was a great experience and I learned a lot. English classes are the best here!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I absolutely LOVE this school. Being from the north (NJ), I am completely enjoying the warm weather and going to the beach until it finally gets cold in November! Our campus really embraces Seahawk Nation as the main color teal can be seen everywhere. There are so many different activities and clubs to get involved in when you're not in class. GET INVOLVED :)
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I was so suprised how cheap this school is compared to even In-State schools in NJ. Definitely worth the price!!!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
-get ready for some flooding on campus... pack rain boots!!
-randall library can get really crowded during finals week so find a secret study spot somewhere else on campus!
-sign up your team early for the Oozeball tournament (mud volleyball)
-Dub's Cafe has really good ice cream
-get a bike, it really makes your trip to class a lot faster!
-be outside as much as possible!
-GET INVOLVED :)
Which types of students will excel at your college?
-loves warm weather & the beach
-very active (working out and playing sports)
-has school spirit (even for basketball games since we don't have a football team)
-laid back person who is spontaneous and fun!
