Looking for a top-rated university that not only paves the way to a successful career, but also provides a well-rounded liberal arts and sciences education and nationally recognized faculty?

We’ve got two reasons this is the week to consider completing your education at UNC Asheville.

🏫 Access Asheville upped to $90,000

Breaking news: Access Asheville upped its qualifying annual income to $90,000. The university’s financial aid program guarantees fully covered tuition and fees for North Carolina residents whose annual family income is $90,000 or less (previously $80,000) — making a high-quality education more accessible to more than half of NC families and residents.

🧑‍💻 It’s Free Application Week
