HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS in the local region are invited to visit the University of North Carolina Wilmington.  As a high school junior, you are beginning to think about the college process, and UNCW would like to help you through this journey.  We would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our campus and allow you to Explore your Backyard.

The program begins at 2:45pm with check-in, and the Welcome will begin promptly at 3:15pm.  Explore your Backyard will consist of an admissions overview, campus tour, and student speakers.  The afternoon will conclude with a UNCW baseball game and cookout compliments of the UNCW Office of Admissions.

This program is restricted for local high school students, teachers, and guidance counselors. 

Visiting the campus is always the best way for students to get a true feel for a university and its programs.  We hope you will join us to Explore your Backyard at UNCW!
