Let the countdown begin.

From Monday, Oct. 16-Friday, Oct. 20, participating NC colleges (including UNC Asheville) will waive application fees for College Application Week — making next week the week to apply.

This event comes on the cusp of UNC Asheville announcing Access Asheville, an exciting new financial aid program that guarantees full tuition and fees for qualifed NC residents whose annual family income is $80,000 or less.
