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?

We’ve got two reasons this is the week to consider attending UNC Asheville.

🏫 It’s a top-ranked Princeton Review college... again

UNC Asheville (once again) made The Princeton Review’s list of top national colleges, earning impressive nods for academics, health services, conservation, and more.

💸 It’s a “Best Buy” college

The university is one of only 10 public US universities to be named a Fiske Guide “Best Buy” college, which rates the academic quality of a college as it relates to the cost to attend (think: getting the best bang for your buck).

🧑‍💻 This week is Free Application Week

ICYMI, this week is College Application Week (aka Free Application Week). From Monday, Oct. 21 to Sunday, Oct. 27, UNC Asheville is among the participating NC colleges that are waiving their application fees — yes, that means you can apply for free when applying through the CFNC portal.
