North Carolina Community College transfer students, who have earned an AA or AS degree meeting the requirements of the North Carolina Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (CAA) or an AE, AFA, AATP or ASTP will receive a waiver of Foundations and Approaches & Perspectives requirements with the exception of PE; foreign language; and 3 credits from Living in Our Diverse Nation or Living in a Global Society. They will also receive a waiver of 3 credits each of Writing Intensive, Information Literacy and Critical Reasoning competency requirements. AA, AS, AE, AFA, AATP or ASTP degree-holding transfer students will be held to all other University Studies requirements.
Prior to being admitted to UNCW, North Carolina Community College students are encouraged to work with their Transfer Success Coach for assistance with choosing appropriate coursework to transfer toward their degree plan at UNCW. After admission, your official transfer credit evaluation and UNCW degree audit will be prepared. Your UNCW academic advisor will meet with you as part of your new student orientation process.
Transfer Guides are only designed for transferable Associate degree programs like the AA, AS, AFA, AATP or ASTP. If you are completing an Associate in Applied Science, we encourage you to review our Uniform Articulation Agreements or individual articulation agreements found on the Transfer Partnerships website.
While we encourage students to complete their Associate's degree prior to transferring, it is possible to transfer earlier if you meet the transfer admission requirements. Transfer Guides can still be used to assist with choosing transferable coursework, but it is important to note you will not qualify for the University Studies waiver if you do not complete an AA or AS degree.
Only students who are planning to apply as a transfer student are eligible for guaranteed admission. Dual-enrolled or early college students who plan to apply as first-year students are not eligible for PathWays. To learn more, please visit our Early College website.
